Yeovil.

I was thinking pretty much that, hopefully Swindon though if Wilson gets sacked. Wilson given vote of confidence earlier in the week. I still back Wilson, but he has lost a lot of the fans confidence and to be fair, since we beat Leeds 3-0 away in march our form has been awful. Not being bias but think we have one of the best squads in league 1, a high wage bill and the current form and perfomances are just not good enough.

Slightly off topic but our Reserve team drew 5-5 with Torquay reserves on Tuesday and our reserves went 5-0 up.

How is the Togolese boy getting on for you?

Dossevi has been poor. Think there is a bit about him, but he tends to play one, sub for two, injured for one, bench for a few etc... so never had a run in the team. When he is on the pitch he seems to spend most his game offside or running around like a headless chicken. If a youngster, you would have more patience, but he is in his 30's, so by the time he gets to speed with the game over here he will probably be retiring or dropping down the leagues.

Vicent Pericard our other striker has been poor since we signed him. A league 1 Emile Heskey. Can't say I am keen on him, but he did have one of his better games for Town v Sheffield Wednesday recently, he tired out in his last 10 mins on the pitch and our fickle fans were booing him, giving him dogs abuse and i'd say about 60% of the crowd cheered when he got subbed. As much as I dislike the player (as a footballer) that was out of order, no good for him or the team and the abuse that day was certainly unjustified. People are entitled to boo at football and vent there feelings, but that however I feel was out of order and unfair on the big guy.

David Ball on loan from Man City, looked pretty average at best and today he has moaned about his lack of games. Don't think he will make it at Swindon and certainly not at Man City

If Charlie Austin leaves in January the god help us.

Good result v Charlton on Sunday. Been to Walsall away quite a few times, what a depressing area that is. Think Walsall will be in League 2 next season though (hopefully not along with Swindon) and will be playing dross such as Oxford.

Yep was indeed . Another hard game on saturday against Southampton . Lambert will be a big danger and is a signew for pardew at Newcastle.

Take it your game at Yeovil called off.

Swindon and Oxford off. No surprise, I live slap bang in the middle of the two and snow really bad. Yet left the pub last night at 1am and not even a hint of snow and BBC weather had said sunny this weekend, just minus -3 to - 6

[CityDave]

Always keeping a look out on how Exeter City are getting on, have done since the early 80's, big game today against Wednesday.

[ayrunitedfw]

a bit late but southampton v Walsall is OFF

[CityDave]

Exeter City 5-1 Sheffield Wed, never expected that.

Mini bus going down, but I am not going. Had some bad news on job front just before xmas and bday, so funds a bit tight and away games on hold. Shame game is on boxing day, would have liked to have gone down for a weekend in april, we never got Bournemouth away on a decent date either.

[DJP]

Off to watch Swindon now, tough game v Peterboro. Austin less then 4/1 to score first, so looking at value, gone for JP McGovern @ 14/1

[Jambo Stu]

Been up and down this Peterborough this season, burst my coupon on several occasions. Should be an entertaining game though. Good luck!

DJP, Notice in todays Scottish Sun that there a number of clubs interested in Charlie Austin including celtic,Qpr and Hull City. Danny Wilson the manager pretty much said that Swindon are a selling club and it would be hard to be able to keep Austin.

Austin will go. But although Wilson has said we are a selling club (like most clubs) we have fairly wealthy owners and think it will take a big offer to make us part with him before the end of the season. We have already rejected a bid from Hull City. I more fear us losing Jonathon Douglas, our best player and holds midfield together, currently suspended at the moment.

Game today was good. Peterboro better team in the first half, could have been two or three up by half time. Second half we battered them but could not get through, apart from a rare Austin penalty.

Austin strike rate is impressive at Swindon, even more impressive, only once has he scored more then one goal in a game, so his goals to games ratio really is that good. If he leaves hope it is to a decent club like QPR where he maybe in the prem league pretty soon and not somebody shit like Reading or Bristol City.

What's your thoughts on Miguel Comminges Dale?

Just gone back to Cardiff from the Blues and Abbott has basically said he wasn't any better than we currently have, which is a bit surprising. He also only played once in the FA cup v Tamworth.

Any good for your lot?

The season he left Swindon to join Cardiff on a free transfer he was voted fans player of the season, although I didn't pick him as any of my 3 picks . It took him a while to settle then after that he had a fairly decent season. That was his one and only season with Swindon. But was a fairly steady right back, wasn't terrible but nothing to write home about either.

Since Austin is odds of shorter then 4/1 I have bet on

Alan Sheehan @ 18/1 to score the 1st goal. Also at same price on him to score last. Good free kick taker.

Swindon getting beat 0-1 so far

[DJP]

Fucking dire. Wilson out. Sheehan got subbed with about 20 mins to go as well, so no last goal chance either.

We are on tv on monday, could be embarrising (Charlton away 5pm sky sports).
