PLAYER RATINGS: Swindon Town 0-1 Lincoln City

Swindon's hit-and-miss form continued on Tuesday night as they lost at home to newly-promoted Lincoln. Benjamin Wills has evaluated the men in red.

Reice Charles-Cook: Charles-Cook's home debut was not a lively one, to be fair to him, and he had no chance with Lincoln's goal - 4

Ben Purkiss (replaced by Kaiyne Woolery '87): Arguably Swindon's man-of-the-match and that says a lot. Made what at the time looked to be a crucial block on the line to deny Palmer. Unfortunately, it was in vain - 4

Matt Preston: Looked a bit shaky this time in what was an off night for the centre-back - 3

Olly Lancashire: Awarded man-of-the-match by the sponsors. Honestly could have been anyone, but that is not due to a good reason - 3

Matty Taylor: Swindon's plan A, B and C with free-kicks, corners and crosses. All of which were either headed out, blocked, or sailed wide or over - 4 

James Dunne: Looked lost in the Swindon midfield and had mixed fortune with passes and tackles - 2

Amine Linganzi: Similar story to Dunne - 2

Paul Mullin (replaced by McDermott '72): Even when Mullin does not play particularly well there is a lot of energy from him. Barely even that tonight - 3

Keshi Anderson: A subdued night for Anderson. Had a few shots blocked and one wide - 4

Johnny Goddard: Tried to create things down the left, none of it came off - 3

Luke Norris: Rarely involved due to decent Lincoln defending and Town's frankly abject creative play - 3

Substitutes: 

Donal McDermott: Did ok in his cameo, one shot blocked - 3 

Kaiyne Woolery: Not on the pitch anywhere near long enough - N/A
