Swindon Town Port Vale
R.Fallon (24')
HT: 1-1 M.Bell (44'), C.Cornes (53')
Attendance:  4,531 (189 away fans)   Referee:  P. Melin



 
Rory Fallon gives the Town the lead midway through the first half (prompting a FIFA style shooting celebration) - but Swindon's luck is out when a free-kick is deflected wildly into the net - then loanee keeper Tom Heaton completely misjudges a long ball to hand Port Vale a victory they scarcely deserve, and Swindon a club record eighth defeat on the trot.
