Well done to the players for showing professionalism especially those who are in today's team from the start.

[Keith]

Interesting that Stuart Moore isn't playing or on the bench? You'd think he'd want to play, regardless of being paid on time or not, given he's been out for so long. He's been saying he's fully fit for a few weeks. So I wonder what's going on there? Not considered good enough? Made it clear he's not staying, while Smith may? Or, doesn't want to play, and just wants away?

Not a bad line up all things considered

Surprised it's taken so long for Smith to start over Mair!

But Moore?

[Redalert1970]

Not the start we wanted

1 0 to Swindon after 4 mins

[Keith]

Well that didn't take long. There were three unmarked Swindon players, all lining up for it.

[Redalert1970]

Surely we arent that bad Keith

Swindon fans unmarked lol

Ha, I hoped my edit would have been too quick! Dave Salmon said the word "fans" as I was watching and typing at the same time!

Another free header from a free-kick, fortunately well wide.

[John L]

Just discovered we're on iFollow video today (thanks to Marky No.1's post on another thread about the 3pm blackout ending last Saturday) so managed to pay my tenner and tune in just in time to see Austin's goal!

[redrobo]

Are you surprised...I'm certainly not.

Looks as though the only one who MAY have carried out the threat of not playing maybe fans favourite Slew...

JJ injured as well as Taylor, Bedeau and Stokes....

...and fans' not-so-favourite Hiwula?

[Redalert1970]

Get innnnn

Adams with the equaliser 15 mins

[Keith]

Nicely worked goal, although it took a huge deflection to wrong foot the keeper. 1-1

[Redalert1970]

No Garner either

[dannymorc1]

1-1 Back in it. We have had a reasonable start. Keep it up lads.

[Keith]

...and fans' not-so-favourite Hiwula?

Bizarre if Hiwula has chosen not to play given how little he's produced in the time that he's been here. I can't imagine he's done enough to secure a contract for next season, anywhere, so this would be another opportunity to do something.

1-2!!!!

Fairclough on his full debut!

[Redalert1970]

Wow wow wow

2 1 to Morecambe

16 year old fairclough on his debut

[dannymorc1]

1-2. Well done. For a scratch squad we are playing well. A lot of good closing down and good passing moves going forward. Please don't go all defensive now.
COME ON YOU MORECAMBE REDS.

16 year old fairclough on his debut

Presumably, Slew has chosen not to play, which has given Fairclough his opportunity. If Slew had made himself available, Fairclough would have been on the bench. Instead, he's got his first goal.

It's a funny old game!

[Born again Bill]

Currently Barrow are out of the playoffs sorry but it cheers me up a bit

[Redalert1970]

And Bradford

[Keith]

2-2

FFS, no defending at all.
