Re: Exiles Grandstand Swindon home
35That win is big. Had we lost today we were in a real scrap. We're not safe yet and we still have a difficult few weeks but I feel more confident now.
Good day so far, I got wordle in two. Anyone know how Wales v Ireland is going?

Re: Exiles Grandstand Swindon home
38Hope you are right Jim. I’m feeling more confident. Still need to look over our shoulders. Keep getting the points like that.
Re: Exiles Grandstand Swindon home
39Massive result, and richly deserved. Charsley looks like a very astute acquisition and we created more chances in the first 25mins than I reckon we managed in all of our post-Christmas games combined. McNeil looked rather lightweight (which I expected, to be honest) but Kavanagh has something about him. Another excellent game from Scouse Lewis too. Granted, we were helped by the sending-off, but it was a clear red and we still had to break down a very good Sw*ndon side. A big, big three points in the context of the season.
Irritating afterwards that Gwent's finest made the baffling decision to pen in home fans exiting the Hazells Stand and prevent us using the footbridge until after the away fans had all left. Still, nice overtime if you can get it.

40Encouraging first half then,we score and go negative,get a second out of the blue and still manage to put us through it by conceding.Only we could do that,anyway we won so good news.The PV boy gets through some work,MU lad didn’t get any ball in the right areas and Kavanagh gets a walk in to ko his time here.Just wish we could keep playing positive and make it easier for ourselves.
Re: Exiles Grandstand Swindon home
41McNeill couldn't get into the game. But he stuck to the task of menacing the Swindon goal and helped set up the first goal by laying off the pass for the cross. Looks as though he will need a bit of time to gain confidence at this level.
Charsley looks a good player. And, given that he is Coughlan's only permanent signing so far, it helps give me confidence that the manager knows what he's about when it comes to signings.
Whereas McNeill probably failed to live up to most people's expectations, for me, Kavanagh exceeded them. He looked cocky and confident and hungry for a gaol.
Good to see Townsend again. He had a couple of fluttery moments though.

42Good win for us but repeated elsewhere against the odds unfortunately
Re: Exiles Grandstand Swindon home
43In fairness I'm reasonably sure Kavanagh's greatest critic is his old man. He was a decent lower league midfielder and I thought a decent enough Manager. His son is unlikely to be lacking in endeavour but may in skill. The good thing is he's off the mark. Strikers need to score early in any team environment and from that make it a regular occurrence for their confidence. And County need a regular goalscorer to get away from the drop zone and stay away from there...G Guest wrote: February 4th, 2023, 4:30 pm O'Neill couldn't get into the game.
