Grinners Are Winners! 

SkyBet League One

 

RESULT: Swindon Town 2 Doncaster Rovers 0

 

Swindon scorer: Obika 45+2, 66

 

Town fans often say that 'it's the hope that kills you'. But who cares?

 

A Jon Obika double tonight has lifted the Robins to within four points of the play-offs, as what had looked like a dismal finish to the season six weeks ago is now set for an exciting finale.

 

"We’ve got explosive players and they're conditioned to play that kind of football," commented a delighted Luke Williams, after watching his team control the game and keep their first clean sheet at home this season.
