Top of the league, but not really having that much of a laugh: Swindon Town’s day trip to the Fylde coast should have brought more smiles than it managed.
Fleetwood Town goalkeeper Jay Lynch had five times more saves to make than Connor Ripley over the course of the afternoon. Swindon enjoyed 58 per cent possession, completed twice as many passes as their opponents, and yet had to settle for a 1-1 draw.
This was the first time all season that Swindon had taken the lead in a league outing and not gone on to win. On each of the previous seven occasions, the Robins had seen an advantage through.
The over-riding feeling at the final whistle, then - for both players and fans - may well have been frustration.
