Swans come from behind at Glanford Park to snatch a point

Swans came from behind to take a point at Glanford Park tonight despite having Alan Tate sent off for a challenge on Scunny's Cleveland Taylor after 16 minutes. Gary Monk was stretchered off on 29 minutes with what looks like a serious injury.

Swans took the lead right on half time with a right-footed goal by Andy Robinson. On 49 minutes Tom Williams fouled Cleveland Taylor in the penalty area and Andy Crosby scored from the spot-kick. Scunny then took the lead on 67 minutes when Billy Sharp scored with a right-footed shot.

Rory Fallon rescued a point for the Swans on 78 minutes with a header from a Tom Williams cross. Swans held out for a point despite late pressure from Scunthorpe.

So now its Oldham away on Saturday, without two key defenders. Will Kenny Jackett reinforce the Swans defence by then?
