As an Ipswich supporter, we thought our 3-2 and 4-3 games were entertaining! Amazing....what a performance by Aldershot!

town fan too. what a crazy game!

Fair play to aldershot and their fans. Best side we've seen at the county ground this season.

Actually a little bit annoyed we conceded 4 after scoring 7 but still happy with the result

[@markstarmer3677]

As someone who doesn’t know the in’s and outs of Swindon, for a league club to concede 7 goals at home without reply is astonishing. I presume you didn’t play your full strength side, a lot of clubs don’t for these types of fixtures. But the management / players seriously underestimated Aldershot. Fantastic game for the neutral, and Aldershot (obviously) you must feel for the paying supporters of Swindon though.

[@user-61382]

Thing is though we did play a full strength 😂

[@himynameisjackk7242]

if we played real madrid today this is the team we would put out

[@retardeddragapult]

There's barely any difference in footballing level between League Two and National League. There should be 3-4 teams traded between the leagues instead of 2.

[@jameswiglesworth5004]

What do you mean without reply ? Swindon scored 4

[@markstarmer3677]

@@jameswiglesworth5004 Aldershot scored 7 goals without reply at one stage of the match. I know Swindon scored 4, but not before going seven down. That’s what I meant.

[@user-mb2by5kt8o]

What a game !!! I remember Charlie Austin at QPR and Southampton

[@davidplaysriffs]

Swindon was his first proper club when we signed him from Poole. We gave him the platform.

It's the 2008 Portsmouth/Reading game all over again!

Fair play to Aldershot who came to Swindon what a hammering that was I definitely was not expecting that😮 Just imagine if this ended up a 7-7 draw

How do you score FOUR consolation goals?! Mad.

Swindon get battered everywhere they go - although that doesn’t take away from what a mental score line and score order it was

Fair enough Oxford fan or Bristol rovers fan we were awful

[@mrapple2373]

Or a Reading fan, apparently they try to hate on the Red Army (saying this as a Burton Albion fan 🤣) but nobody who supports Swindon really cares about Reading

[@uncleambient]

Gotta love the FA cup

[@jamisbillson4872]

Pity the EFL and Premier League hate it. The magic of the Cup has disappeared. Money now rules. At least Luton are Premier League. Not that I can get tickets this season home or away.

[@meltikapassley1394]

The players let themselves, supporters, and the management team down. If they wish to have ambitions to have a career in professional football for many years to come,then let's see if they will bust a gut on Tuesday ,then ,maybe then we supporters might start to forgive them. Wearing the badge for a club with so much history, should be seen be honour, and not a means to be disrespectful to hard working fans who just want the players to give 100% win, lose or draw. Common you reds.
