Just had a quick look at Swindons forum, apart from the odd decent honest comment they really are a horrible club, vile and disgusting comment's by some of them, oh yeah and this was our cup final according to one of them lol, hummm I think not, horrible place Gives me the same vibes of the silly Yeovil fan. Bet he wished he never made that banner they lost to Needham market last week ffs 😂😂😂😂

Whilst I think we were the better team today, we were so so poor going forward. Our only goal was a bit of a fluke and I don't think we actually really challenged their GK all game. Happy with the point overall, but in hindsight disappointed we didn't come away with more as Swindon were there for the taking. Hardly a fluke was it? Put the ball in the perfect area, you get goals!

"If I can't get you promoted out of League Two I shouldn't be in the game" - Joey Barton He will, with this squad, but maybe next year? But the quote is spot on, regardless. Sometimes needs to calm himself before speaking

When Garner was manager he said he only brought one experienced striker in because he expected the goals to come from the attacking midfielders well that didn't work out. Oddly enough Barton said he was going to bring more strikers in to get more goals but most of our goals have come from the attacking midfielders,which is what Garner wanted to achieve. Makes me question how good either manager is and it is as much luck as judgement whether their tactics succeed . Building a team that gels, is largely luck, you can bring in whoever you think is right, but it’s building a unit that clicks together. This team isn’t far from it

"If I can't get you promoted out of League Two I shouldn't be in the game" - Joey Barton He will, with this squad, but maybe next year? This squad? Massive rebuild likely again in the summer with the likes of Nicholson, Evans, Taylor, L Clarke, Pitman, Connolly, Coutts, Harries, Jaakola, Spence all unlikely to be here. Would obviously need to rebuild better than he managed last summer.

Which is higher than our league position which shows we are improving. Continue improving and we won’t be far off. I’m not saying we’ll make play offs but , well if we continue to rise up through the division throughout the rest of the season then that will at least be a massive improvement over the last two years "If I can't get you promoted out of League Two I shouldn't be in the game" - Joey Barton I have said things in the past I probably shouldn't have said and I expect JB thinks the same, it's hardly the crime of the century is it, must be brilliant being perfect but I'm not and JB isn't but if we don't get promoted this year I think we will next time, did he actually say I will get us promoted thus year 2022 or did he say I will get us promoted?

So the manager is clearly doing something right. That’s not the point made though? The point is that this squad is unlikely To not need wholesale changes in the summer regardless of if we go up or not.

An environment that gets battered by Exeter in 25 minutes, can't beat 10 men on several times, has the worst disciplinary record in the division and has lost nearly 40% of games at the lowest level in the football league.
