28 mins Swindon 0-2 Man City
Let's hope Swindon play like this on Tuesday. Laughable performance so far.

Swindon gifting the game to City playing out from the back. We will get plenty of chances if they play like that let alone probably the best team in Europe in Man City

Swindon showing no respect to City and paying the price. Just clear the cluckin ball and stop messing about like you think you are better than you are.

What a difference Jonny Williams makes to Swindon when he comes on. Far too good for League Two.

Don't really get how he's ended up in L2. Injuries perhaps? Surely he's good enough for the champ or top end L1

The most minutes he’s ever played in a league season is 1369. That’s the equivalent of just over 15 full games. I think that’s probably why he’s dropped to this level.

They did that when we played them at theirs. They took some real risks across the back, we were just too rubbish to take advantage of it. I hope and trust that NC saw this and plays a pressing game on Tuesday.

League two games are going in our favour today.

Bradford, Newport, Walsall and Northampton all losing.

We are now 3 points off the play offs with 2 games in hand.

8 points off the top 3 with a game in hand.

Yeah agree. Good day in the league considering we didn't play. Hopefully the players bounce back and we claw these teams in

Tranmere must have really improved since we beat them, they were shocking that day.

I remember we trounced Tranny under Flitcroft, Grant scored a screamer and we were so far ahead of them it was night and day. They got promoted and we stayed down. Funny old team Tranmere.

So tough playing against Lukaku etc. Strong Chelsea side. Anything less than 5-0 wouldn’t be bad but it’s already 4-0 after 39 minutes. Glad we had Boro and a cracking game tbh.

I'd imagine many teams who played us in our winless streak are saying the same about us now.

To be frank if we'd have had Arsenal at our ground yesterday we'd have had every chance of beating them They were awful.
