Offered tickets for the club up the road. Decent size club, tendency to play the right way. Ian Holloway as manager. Boy was it a reminder of our dark days. They conceded in the first minute, to Accrington Stanley who wanted to muscle in and go for it from the off. Swindon looked shell shocked and a couple of their players continuously made poor passing decisions. but buouyed by number 26 Butler making good tackles and decisive passes, they worked into the game for 1-1. So onto the second half where Swindon had several chances including setting up Drinnan the main striker with a 1 on 1 which he oddly smashed just wide when it looked a certain goal. They chuffed and huffed and puffed, Accrington being successful in good positioning and interceptions. Holloway then made odd substitutions bringing off Butler and other wide players for less useful players who had no urgency. The whistle blew and the crowd booed. I said to my son I have never heard boos for Ipswich at the end of a game, maybe I missed those end McCarthy games in attendance.
Listening to Ian Holloway he picked out Brennans miss and made his frustrations clear.
All is not well at Swindon. Can’t wait to get to an Ipswich game now. |  |
