Swindon looked slightly the better side in a poor first half and, after being denied by a 35th minute goal-line clearance by Craig Alcock, took a deserved if fortunate lead six minutes later.[LNB]Jon-Paul McGovern crossed from the left and when Billy Paynter headed on, Forbes headed the ball into his own net from three yards.[LNB]Yeovil, decimated by injuries, were never short of effort in the second half but chances were few and far between.[LNB]Swindon continued to look dangerous and when Lescinel Jean-Francois was flattened in one attack boss Danny Wilson was ordered to the stand for being too vociferous with his protests.[LNB]Swindon should have doubled their lead on 84 minutes when substitute Lloyd Macklin was clear through but was thwarted by a timely save by Alex McCarthy.[LNB][LNB]
