Squad12 Oct 2026

The step up is real for Flávio Gonçalves

At 19 he is doing things this season that he could not do last season, and doing them every week. Form comes and goes; this has stayed long enough to be called something else.

Squad12 Oct 2026

James Ball stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” James Ball and Swindon Town agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Ryan Delaney out for 16 days

The medical room confirms 16 days on the sidelines for Ryan Delaney, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

The dugout12 Oct 2026

A promise honoured at Swindon Town

Something was said to Flávio Gonçalves and then it happened. In this industry that passes for remarkable, and the dressing room noticed faster than any supporter could.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Fletcher Holman falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

The dugout12 Oct 2026

The manager has not finished forgetting Sam Inwood's mistake

Publicly it is behind everybody. It is not behind the man who picks the team, and the only place that shows is a team sheet. He will get another chance; he will get it in a match that matters less.

Márk Kosznovszky breaks a bone — 22 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 22 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Gavin Kilkenny puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Swindon Town, and it is not being withdrawn.

The dugout14 Sep 2026

The manager makes an example of Ryan Tafazolli

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Match12 Sep 2026

Swindon Town come up short against Salford City

Salford City left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Swindon Town count the cost of losing Ryan Delaney

48 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

The dugout14 Sep 2026

John Martin faces the questions

“We were not good enough today and I am not going to dress it up.” John Martin after 0‑1, in the tone of a man who knows the next question and does not intend to answer it.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Sam Inwood's mistake decides it

Ten men and a goalkeeper behind him, and it still finished in the net. He knew before anybody told him, and nobody at Swindon Town needed to.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Words exchanged at Swindon Town

Carey Bloedorn and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

The dugout14 Sep 2026

Sam Inwood is still being punished for one mistake

Nobody will confirm it and the team sheets confirm it every week. One error has bought him a spell as second choice that is already longer than the error deserved.
