I tend to agree.

I think you can argue it either way to be honest. We were not great by any means, but we had more possession and more efforts on goal and two or three very good chances in open play. A draw would not have been unfair.

We beat Blackpool 2-1. Their side was a mixture of first team players and youngsters, so it was a decent performance. Jennings scored again.

We drew 1-1 at home to an Everton XI mostly comprising youngsters, but including a few players with first team experience such as Holgate and Warrington. We played very well in my opinion and looked sharp, the one weakness being in the eighteen yard box with Dennis and Norris still out injured...

Those were the days.

We beat Fleetwood 4-1 in a behind closed doors game, the excellent Josh Hawkes scoring two. He will be a big player for us if he is still here at the end of the window. An important win for us, after a couple of dodgy performances and results, even if it is only pre-season.

The majority of posters have us finishing in the bottom half of the table, based on a mediocre season last year. However, our squad is greatly improved and there is no reason why we can't be challenging for the top seven, as we generally have historically at this level. McGee, Dennis, Norris...

Not very good. Too wayward and too many lapses in concentration to be a centre half.

Another good signing. Our forward line is unrecognisable from last season. I think Hemmings must be on his way out.

I am not sure that is true. He was the best player on the pitch when we played Hartlepool a few months ago, and did pretty well in a very poor side up there. I think he has got plenty to offer as a squad player at this level. We are shopping at Tesco rather than Harrods, so yes, it would be...

Mike Flynn seems a bit of a departure for Swindon. They are generally thought of as a footballing side but Flynn will offer something a bit, er, different.

The announcement of Adkins last night has given everyone at the club a boost. More chance of us getting a result now I would say.

Nigel Adkins announced as our Technical Director. A very good appointment I think and some much needed experience to assist Dawes. Feeling much more positive about next season now.

Derogatory comments like this about Mellon make me smile when you consider what he achieved here and elsewhere. I personally have not enjoyed the football any more in Dawes caretaker spell. Yes, we play through midfield a bit more, which is almost inevitable if you play with an extra man in...

Pleased with the appointment of Danns, who I would have preferred to Dawes as manager. Dawes has failed as assistant under three sacked managers and should no longer be at the club in my opinion. He did not improve results or performances in his caretaker stint this season and does not merit...

Dreadful appointment.

I thought we played some decent football in the second half and deserved the win today. There were particularly good performances from Harvey Saunders, Rhys Hughes, Regan Hendry (who we will hopefully sign) and Josh Hawkes. Hawkes scored his eleventh goal of the season, which is a good return...

362 Tranmere fans at Rochdale.

I think I heard 402.

Not really. Still a good following for a journey of that length, for a dead rubber.
