But you don't say that to a consistently good player after one sub par performance, would make no sense.
I would be very surprised if it was Greer, but we shall see tomorrow I guess.

Harley played like he always plays 
Is that the same Wayne Bridge who was an England international?

I rather hope that he put Harley/Dicker in as a "show me what you can do" challenge. Which Harley especially failed. I reckon Spaz and Vinnie are safe for now!

And it's all gone quiet..
Noone and Dicker I think.
If Harley hadn't been under fire last season I doubt most people would've mentioned it.
Noone (I know it's been mentioned before, but it's true!) has a poor end product, 90% of his crosses tonight just sailed over everyone's heads and out for a throw or a corner.
Dicker was slow and got caught in possession a few times, so nothing new.
I thought Harley was pretty anonymous to be honest, can't really think of anything good or bad he did apart from one shot on target with his left foot early in the second half.
One of my friends who rarely watches football made a comment after the match and it occurred to me as a valid point - she said "Are these players really tall or is the pitch really small?". Because the Amex pitch is so big (about 15 feet wider than Swindon's I think), that could be a reason why most of Greer's long passes went just over Noone's head?
Some positives:
Bruno looked good, strong and passionate, and practically all of his passes were inch perfect. A thunderous strike too to force a decent save from the Swindon keeper.
Agdestein looked lively when he came on and could've scored right near the end.

Indeed, although I do wonder if it just might be Harley & Dicker that Gus was referring to? Hey, it's just a hunch folks - so don't slaughter me if I'm totally off-beam.

Ja.
Can you blame him tonight?
He knew that every ball to Noone was going to be wasted. Bridge played in 3 quality crosses in the first half which is 3 more than Noone has managed for nearly a year.
Bridge is still premier league class and will only get better with more games.

ps As a matter of interest, how much was it Cardiff were offering for Nooney?

Silly money for what he's worth, should've took it IMO.

I've just had a chat with Gus. He said he only mentioned the two players to naylor to do him a favour in selling the Argus tomorrow and to see how many players would be fingered as being one of the two he mentioned on a thread on NSC by some pissed up fans still talking about a meaningless defeat in a hokey cokey cup game. I'm going for Vicente and Bruno. Both were out of their depth.

Greer for me. Lost number of the amount of times he over hit passed to Noone. Made to look like a total idiot twice for the second Swindon goal. In fairness to Noone he beat his man plenty of times despite being tightly marked. It was his final ball which let him down.
