Absolutely pathetic fans giving a single <ovf censored> about Swindon while we fail and fail and fail again, you guys are <ovf censored> clowns. Crosby has been overseeing the team since Jan, get him out now!!

Anyone know when the next round draw is.

Great effort with a man down for 85 minutes, still had more possession which is nuts.

Hope Smudge is just a one match ban but that’s a blow if Debrah and Lowe are out down to just Cass.

Annoyingly the replay is during Int break so no Blaster or Devine

Reasonable result in the circumstances, although what is it now…. 2 goals in 10 games?

RS have now said, for the second time, that we're through to the next round after drawing with Burton. On the ball as ever.

Yep, and only two teams in L1 have scored fewer than us, which is a worrying sign. If you don't score, you don't win; and if you don't win, there's only one direction you'll go in. This is the biggest challenge Crosby faces and he has to solve it. He doesn't seem to have much faith in Thomas so perhaps we'll try another loan player in January...

Yes, I would have taken that after 18 mins.

Cracking effort in the end. Smith should be appalled at himself as his sending off could have been costly, and could still be. But the rest did themselves proud against a tricky opponent who obviously had a man advantage for most of the game.

2 clean sheets in a week is an improvement as well

Read your post again.  Too much amber nectar?  Excellent draw after playing with a key man down for 80 minutes. 

[Portvale4]

Not the result any of us would have wanted but it’s one you would have taken twenty minutes in after Smith’s red. 

Another mention for Alfie Devine today, as I thought he was brilliant & played a big part in everything we did well. Great ball in for Loft which should have been buried & a lovely cross-field ball to set Chislett through on goal, as well as decent effort cutting in from the left which crept wide. 

It’s seems as if Crosby has certainly stopped the rot, so hopefully we can carry this on in the league.
