Looks like we will have to rely on our home form to stand any chance of promotion, I'm sure we will start picking up points away from the County Ground but it may be a case of PDC picking different teams for the away games. We seem to have had a fairly decent spell in all the away matches but if we don't score during those spells we will end up playing catch up too often, which isn't our strong point ! I'm thinking Paolo may be trying to accommodate to many players from the squad and whilst this is happening we just never really seem settled. I do think we will find better form away but for now it's vital to continue to win our home games, Supporting Swindon is still very much up and down but it's never dull.

Too true - I do feel that the team will start to bed down and a solid core will emerge.

Surely, confidence is a big factor.
Why change a side that has just won 4-0?
Maybe to justify panic short term loan signings. OK, they may not start, but they do occupy subs places.
Why Flint & Smith were left out, I can't understand.
And, what was the point of swapping goalkeepers?

Gollum, I'm with you on sticking with the same team that beat Barnet, it's unusual for a manager to change a winning side. I also would of had Flint starting and think Smith was just starting to get settled and had been playing well with Ferry in the centre. Whilst we continue to change the side around I think our results will be hit and miss. I heard P.Smith was struggling with an injury and told Paolo he wasn't happy about recieving back passes because of kicking. With the two new loan signings it's like going back to square one with team selections when really with ten plus games gone I would like to see more stability.
