The headline of this post was the one used in the Swindon Advertiser to round up the week's matches. I'm not making it up - look, here's a photo!

Swindon Advertiser headline

It refers to the fact that Coxy opened the scoring in this game after 12 seconds - which was as good as it got as we sank to defeat.

The game saw a return for Gunning after more than a season out (due to a knee op?) and an MVP for Winters. I don't seem to have a record for Spoons though - it could be that someone (Garratt?) won without even being in the squad.
