Town came from behind to win for the first time this season as second half goals from Jon Walters, Pablo Couñago and a Liam Fontaine own goal saw the Blues to a 3-1 victory. Earlier Stern John had put the Robins in front, while Alex Bruce was red-carded on the hour for a two-footed lunge.
Town again were left ruing missed chances after drawing 0-0 away at Bristol City. Jon Stead, Owen Garvan, Jon Walters and Pablo Couñago all missed good opportunities for the Blues, while ex-Town striker Danny Haynes hit both posts with the home side’s best two chances.
