    first half was played like a pre-season game (well, for us it seemd that way) Swindon put us under some pressure for the first 20 mins or so, but without really testing Weaver (1 shot he has to save)

    2nd half we played a lot better, more cohesive and a lot more positive. LLoyd Sam gets better and better every game and wonder why he didn't play last year instead of Rommedahl. Mcleod had a few shots that tested their keeper and marcus again showed well with his commitment - my only fault with him tonight was that he should have been more greedy and gone for goal himself instead of the lay-offs that lead to our goals.

    cheers Golfie, you'll be pleased to know that pretty much mirrored what Browny was saying on the radio.
  • went to a show last night and got home dead on 12 to see the goals round up on sky sports news. They showed every single goal apart from our 2 !!! some things never change!!!!

    I watched Sky Sports News last night and saw the roundup and, yes opurs was the only one they didn't show! Watched it for 40 minutes this morning still nothing.
  • But you can guarantee that had we lost 2-0 they would have been showing the goals at the start of every bulletin...

    The 7:40 sports news on BBC1 this mornnig didn't even mention the Carling Cup, not even Morecambe's win.

    still watching now and I think I've seen every goal bar ours !!!
  • Weaver – Solid, although wrongly chose not to come for crosses in the windy 1st half
    Moo2 – usual energy, several times ran 70 yards to overlap Sam who then went inside
    Bougherra/Fortune combined well but need to attack anything in the air.
    Powell – uncharacteristically a few mistakes but lacked cover
    Sam – caused mayhem at times, but yet to see a lofted cross. His driven ones are mustard though.
    Semedo – outstanding, how long can we keep him. Brilliant vision & close control.
    Ambrose – goal and a shot apart, largely anonymous. Went to Matt Holland school of tackling.
    Reid – played most of match inside, tried to pass to long so rarely found a blue shirt
    Bent – accepted no Prem side wants him, seems determined to be top striker in CCC, chased all night long, held ball up, looked a handful.
    McLeod – played too wide, possibly to compensate for Reid, but some dangerous runs & shots.
    Subs - Dickson an offside goal ruled out, looked dangerous, hard to see why he isn’t on the verge of the side. Iwelumo, the worst striker to wear the shirt for a long time. Sinclair – keen but lacks quality.

    only two subs appearances, try not to be too harsh on the lad (some players read this!), he showed he can score in this league - likely to be down the pecking order though.

    Looks like two excellent signings from Pards, Motorkill was in demand from PL clubs but we pursuaded him to come here, and Semedo looks like a brilliant bit of scouting etc. - esp. since he was a defender before.

    I'm expecting big things from Racoon as well as i'm presumed he comes from the same scouting network.
  • Whoever the scouts were that found Moo2 and Semedo it has to be said they've done brilliantly!

    Did they also find El Kak & Diawara?

    Can't blame them though, for Faye & Traore.

    All old regime signings. Phil Haverson is the main man now.

    There is a Carling Cup round up programme on ITV (Late Thursday night I believe..). Maybe we are the main game and therefore, skysports are contractually obligated not to show our goals..?

    I'm not sure which regions are showing it - I'm in HTV West (Swindon, Brizzle City/Rovers) country, and although I'm sure I've seen it advertised, the one TV guide I've got doesn't have it listed.

    with all those pen shoot outs, doubt it.. its more likely swindon is such a hike and a washout they didnt get any footage.

    Thanks for that, Henry.

    Well, he's picked up 2 or 3 quality signings. I guess he's one of Pardew's old school that he's brought with him.
    Any potted history on Phil Haverson and other players he's 'discovered'.

    I don't suppose too many of us know anything much about him.
