Off to the Theatre Of Dreams ( a.k.a. The County Ground ) this afternoon to see the League Two fixture between Swindon and Barnet – a loss at Burton last week left Town fans hoping the three points would be in evidence this afternoon to lift us up the table .

After the first ten minutes it didn’t look good – Barnet put together some decent attacks and looked dangerous . Then , against the run of play we scored and from then onwards it was one way traffic with Swindon coming away with an incredibly easy 4-0 win .

So , a good afternoon – scored four goals , kept a clean sheet , kept to the diet and avoided the burger van and remembered to take my camera in order to post a picture on today’s blog post!

Up The Town

After a difficult start to the League Two season , i.e. more losses than wins and an eventful mid week Carling Cup game Swindon Town fans were a little apprehensive about today’s home fixture against top of the table Rotherham .

An early kick off of 1215 to accommodate the Sky TV schedule ( as well as losing half the car park to the Arqiva outside broadcast units) meant a strange atmosphere pre match where it just didn’t feel quite right to play at this time on a Saturday .

However , it turned out to be a great game – Swindon played well , went 1-0 down and recovered , 2-1 down and recovered and eventually won 3-2 with a second half substitute Alan Connell scoring the equaliser and winner . We also saw a player from each side sent off , plenty of bookings and a referee who “knew he was on the telly” so to speak !!

So the pre match anthem of La Donna E Mobile ( the lady is fickle ) also applies to certain Town supporters who now recognise that the manager is a tactical genius rather than an Italian chancer.

Up The Town !

Rockin' Robin And The Rockettes !
