Swindon are punished for two misses by Paul Bodin - one from the penalty spot - as Newcastle take a 2-0 half-time lead at the County Ground... but two goals in a minute on the hour from Martin Ling and Andy Mutch sees the Town snatch a 2-2 draw, prompting *that* celebration by Mutch, which went on to appear on the credits of Match of the Day.
