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.
