Swindon v FGR - MASSIVE local derby (sort of)

[Indian Dan]

Aside from Luton and notts everyone in the upper half of the division are equally shit. But thankfully the bottom half of league one is no better.

Notts are equally shit, IMO. The overall standard is truly dire.

How anyone can think of surviving in L1 next season is beyond me.

Poor game, but honestly felt that if anyone deserved to win it was us.

Hope the FGR player is ok, you could tell it was quite bad because he didn't move at all & the players close to him were quite concerned. Not sure who it was but someone got him into the recovery position fairly quickly, so fair play to them.

As for the away support, i'd guess 600-700

Our first game of the season was Barnet at home, in the first half of that game the football was exciting, and I mean that really and not some attempt to be clever with words. I believed, from having seen us play Division Two teams in recent seasons, that the standard would be somewhat higher than we were used to but hoped we would adjust. Clearly the adjusting has taken longer than we would have hoped but we have certainly improved a bit of late, despite being pants at times I have only seen us have a couple of absolute stinkers, against Newport and Carlisle. We haven't had too many real thrashings, despite our defensive frailties, which backs up your comment about the overall standard. I have only seen one team that I thought really were good and that was Exeter in the league game at our place, we had improved by the time we played them in the first FA Cup game, but I can't honestly say whether they would survive next year if promoted.

I gather that Rawson has sent out a message this evening, saying that he is fine, praising everyone who treated him on the pitch and in the hospital.

You obviously don't watch many Third Div games then.
