Swindon 0 Charlton 3
Npower League One
RESULT: Swindon Town 0 Charlton Athletic 3
Charlton scorers: Jackson 13, Anyinsah 51, Benson 74
Swindon travel to Plymouth on Saturday hoping a good FA Cup result will kick-start their season.
Tonight's defeat means Town now lie in 17th place in League One, with only one win in seven and the second-worst record for goals conceded - 27.
"Our back line were all over the place at times," commented an angry Danny Wilson, who started with Phil Smith instead of Dave Lucas in goal and was forced to make other defensive changes after an injury to Andy Frampton.
"We missed some experience and we've been bullied tonight.
"We simply didn't win enough challenges or compete in the right areas. I'm very disappointed, as are the players, quite naturally, but we will re-group."
Boos at the final whistle
Despite early signs of attacking flair through Pericard and Austin, Town fell behind when Johnie Jackson fired home just before the quarter hour.
The same player was also on hand to assist as the visitors' doubled their lead after the re-start, then sealed it with a Benson header.
Swindon a pale comparsion to the side that defeated their opponents in the League One play-off semi-final just 6 months ago.
