The Official Swindon Town Matchday '6 Pointer' Thread

[Don Quixote]

We will do it, i had a dream last night. A great dream, a dream that we would defeat Swindon. It will happen. We will stay up. It is destiny. One club, one leage, one Brighton.

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

An absolute must win today. Victory will breath life into our relegation battle- back to back wins and teams within touching distance again(hopefully...). Come on the ALBION!!!!!!!!

 

[Acker79]

"us v them"?

 

[OzMike]

How about..." Must win eleven v Would be happy with a draw and could just about afford to lose eleven.

How much do you think they would want to take a dive.

 

[Renns]

Come on you super seagullsssssss!

 

[Horney]

If we're going to catch Swindon today is must-win.

If we draw, then Colchester on Monday is the last chance and we will have to win just to stay in touch with Northampton/Carlisle/Hartlepool.

If we lose it's all over.

Totally agree....4 points over Easter is a minimum requirement.
After today, its 5 games v mid-table sides, so if you were going to pick your final run-in, it wouldn't be far away from what we've got.

Team news:

Doug Loft replaces Chris Birchall as Albion's only change to kick-off against Swindon today.

Birchall, linked with a move to MLS outfit LA Galaxy this week, is unwell so Loft comes back in on the right of midfield.

Calvin Andrew is among the subs after injury while Swindon's starting XI is unchanged from last week's 0-0 draw with Crewe.

The Robins have untried youth team winger Lloyd Macklin among their subs.

We will have reuglar updates from this pivotal League One fixture at Withdean, which sees Albion seek to reduce the five-point gap between themselves and safety.

Click on the Live Football header to access the action.

Albion: Kuipers; Whing, Virgo, Elphick, Borrowdale; Loft, Fraser, Dicker, Cox; Owusu, Davies. Subs: El-Abd, McLeod, Sullivan, Hart, Andrew.

Swindon: P. Smith; Amankwaah, Greer, Ifil, Vincent; Robson-Kanu, Tudor Jones, Timlin, McNamee; Cox, Paynter. Subs: J. Smith, Easton, Brezovan, Lescinel, Macklin.

Ref: Fred Graham (Essex)

We have NEVER won with Fred Graham taking charge of our matches, in six attempts.
