    And still not won a game all season - no surprise, to be honest, the most selfish player we've ever had and so one dimensional it's untrue.

    If the ball isn't in the opposition area, you have to make up for him being a total passenger.

    Poor player, but guess Swindon thought a goal hanger would prove more productive than an all rounder.

    Doesn't seem like it from their results mind . ..

    That happens in almost every game of football... You have to score the chances or it doesn't matter. Saying we could of been 3-0 up is pointless as we were never 3-0 up.

    It’s a results based business, they won, we lost. Just not good enough for a team aspiring for promotion, we should have enough to be winning these games, not throwing them away.

    I'll give it 10 games, 1 loss in 5 is no reason to panic. Cries for 4-4-2.. we would have got overrun today playing that against a 5 (at times 6) man midfield.

    They played like a Mark Cooper team. Spoiling, delaying and cheating tactics.

    They were awful, hope we never play them at home ever again.

    No it doesnt. I was pointing out the clear chances we made despite some saying it was an abysmal performance.

    Our biggest problem again is balance. We have the strikers to play 4-4-2, but I can see why we don’t with the midfielders we have.

    Ridiculous to call for the managers head, but I’ve never seen the OP make a decent post tbf so no surprise. I do agree about how is Akpan playing though. Devine was poor today, but still 10x better than that waste of space.

    You know that's the strange thing here. Why would you want to set up a people business in a small population town and then deal up a "brand" of football that is lacking any sort of appeal based on seeing them today.

    I think the club is just an extension of Dale Vince's "vision", a very public vehicle to spread his eco message. Keeping FR in the league is far more important to him than the "quality" of football.

    Didn't say I was happy pal. Far from it. But I can't yet throw GB under the bus.

    GB said Vaughan wanted to swop shirts so something went on!

    From a managerial perspective that was one of the worst efforts I can ever recall.
