This has not been a good week. The bottom line is quite clear. No goals, no points, and out of the FA Cup.

Yes, we may have played good football and dominated possession, but there is no product. Sadly, this is not new. It is a long-term problem and one of which head coach Mark Cooper is well aware. As our frustration grows, I sense his is also.

Let us look at some reasons. First are we mean enough? We do not finish off teams we dominate. Fine first half performances deserve substantial half-time leads, but they are never forthcoming. We leave inferior opposition in with a chance and too often they take it.

If we were sharper in the penalty area all would be well, but we are not. We compound this by being disastrous at scoring from corners. Mrs Light offers a piece of her renowned Christmas cake to the first player to do so. We move on to Swindon.

This an emotional fixture for many who have Sam Burton, Maurice Owen, Ernie Hunt and Don Rogers in their football DNA. To see our teams, one of our youth and the other, the joy of our middle-age meeting in the football league is a true wonder.

Watch the Swindon strikers, Doyle, so strong in the penalty box, and Yates with his electric movement. They are the main reasons why Swindon are the highest scorers in the league. We should of course think they can be beaten, and we have players with the skill to do it. With all three stands in full voice there is no limit to what can be achieved.
