Videos


After going two behind in the first half, Swindon turn it around in the second - Kevin Horlock and Wayne Allison levelling the game, before Mark Walters puts the Town into the lead for the first time with twenty minutes remaining. Grimsby have the last laugh though - Clive Mendonca netting an equaliser with just two minutes left, to send the bottom-of-the-table Mariners home with a point.
