On October 21, 2023, Swindon Town conceded a last-minute equaliser at Salford City. The result might have been disappointing but the point gained took the club’s haul to 23 for the season. They were fifth in League Two.

On October 22, 2024, Swindon Town lost at Salford City. It was their sixth league defeat of the season and left the club 22nd.

The 367 days between these two results have seen the Robins sink lower and lower, first to depths never previously plunged in their 145-year history, now further still.

Tonight, Swindon find themselves requiring a point per game until end of this season to reach the 10-year average low water mark for safety in this division (44 points).
