SWINDON 0 - 1 BRIGHTON, WEBMASTERS REPORT FROM SWINDON

 

Match Report from the game

The song at the end of the game summed it all up - "One Shot One Goal!" 

 

Listening to BBC Radio Wiltshire on the way home, Swindon Town Manager felt that his team were by far the best on the day. While they did hit the post and the bar, and Tommy Mooney missed a chance with his head when it looked easier to score. Saying that it was a magnificent defensive performance from the Albion with everyone fighting with their lives to get the right result. Our one shot on target bought a goal for Richard Carpenter helped by a deflection off of one of their defenders.

 

The Swindon fans were very loud and passionate, and for one of the very few time made more noise than us. However, if we had had a roof above our heads it would have made a big difference but then we wouldn't have got such a good suntan from the sweltering sunshine!

 

 

Every player came out of the match with merit but special mention should be made to Cullip, Butters and Ben Roberts who held everything together when we were under severe pressure.

 

No doubt Swindon will come out with all guns blazing at Withdean on Thursday but as we haven't let in a goal for six games now, and have a very good home record we can start looking forward to a trip to Cardiff in a fortnight (fingers crossed!).

 

Saw lots of people with John Prescott masks and 'One Site In Brighton' posters but the protest didn't really seem to take off as people got carried away with the general atmosphere. Hopefully the Sky cameras picked up on the posters and we got out message across one way or another.
