SWINDON Town head coach Jody Morris voiced a scathing review of his team’s performance in their 4-4 draw away at Rochdale on Saturday.

Morris insisted there few very few positives, Town’s build-up play was “awful” at times, and that he “did not enjoy much” at all about the Robins’ display as Charlie Austin’s four-goal haul was cancelled out by goals from Devante Rodney, Danny Lloyd, Abraham Odoh before Ian Henderson’s 94th-minute leveller.

MATCH REPORT: Austin scores four but Town held for a point by Dale.

Following a topsy-turvy contest in which the lead changed hands three times, Morris was extremely unhappy with almost everything he saw from his side.

He said: “There aren’t many positives, apart from the goals we get.

“I thought there were six or seven actions where we showed a little bit of quality, finally, but the play up until the final third in the first half was awful.

“We were 2-0 up, and I turned around and said that it was the most number of mistakes we’ve made in the first 15 minutes but we’re winning.

“I thought the game was filled with unforced errors, and I didn’t like our body language, to be honest, in the first half.

“I thought there were too many times where we looked like we lacked a bit of energy. I didn’t enjoy much about that game.”

After seeing a two-goal lead morph into a 3-2 deficit, Town fought back to wrestle the initiative away from Rochdale once again.

But while the game ended 4-4, it could have so easily ended 5-4 as the hosts hit the post through Lloyd late on.

Morris continued: “When you go 4-3 up, you just hope you can hang on. But if I’m being brutally honest, I wasn’t confident in that at all because of the amount of poor play we served up.

“I wasn’t stood on the side line thinking: “Thank God. Now we should come away with the three points” because I’d seen too much that was wrong with that performance.

“It’s strange that you’re going to come away from that game and not be talking about Charlie Austin scoring four goals away from home.

“But if you score four away from home and you don’t get the points then there’s clearly something wrong.”
