Swindon boss David Flitcroft saw his side take the spoils with two late goals at neighbours Forest Green and admitted that it could have been more.
Skipper Olly Lancashire and substitute Matt Taylor scored late on but the Robins boss said a more ruthless side would have had the points in the bag without having to wait until the final frantic minutes.
"I am delighted with the performance," Flitcroft said after a 2-0 win. "We have created some outstanding chances that, if we are more ruthless, we take and we finish.
"We're a little bit hard done by that we have not gone in half-time 2-0 up. But it is a fantastic performance.
"The habits and the attitude of the players was outstanding. We didn't want to come here and not be resilient and our structure not be good.
"We kept another clean sheet and the chances they created were a couple of weak shots that have not really tested us.
"I am so delighted for the players that they got to celebrate with the fans afterwards as I think if we could have got the allocation, we could have doubled the attendance here because our fans on the road have just been brilliant."
It took until the 86th minute before Swindon broke the deadlock. Substitute Taylor's corner was missed by the Rovers keeper and Lancashire crashed his header over the line from close range.
The home side looked for an instant response but were undone again in the first minute of added on time when Taylor's 25-yard effort beat Bradley Collins in the Forest Green goal.
Disappointed Forest Green boss Mark Cooper, once of Swindon, said: "There wasn't a lot in the game at all but when you are conceding goals like we are then you could sense it was coming. We were dropping deeper and deeper so we tried to change it by putting a bit of drive and a bit of thrust on. But as much as our substitutions affected the game last week they didn't this week.
"There was nothing in the game but goals change games. There could have been an infringement on the goalkeeper for the first goal and the second, the goalkeeper knows he has to stop.
"I was really encouraged at half-time and I said to the players let it be us who get the goal this time, let it be them that makes the mistake - but it wasn't to be."
