Swindon Town Brighton and Hove Albion

HT: 0-2 N.Forster (3'), J.Robinson (45'), D.Hammond (73')
Attendance:  6,415 (801 away fans)   Referee:  S. Cook



 
On the pitch, Swindon give an abject performance in a 3-0 home defeat to Brighton - but the most important action is behind the scenes, as Andrew Fitton's takeover deal appears to be falling through.
