Phew…this season has finally finished and on a high note with the 2-0 victory at Tranmere Rovers. Before we start to look forward to hopefully a single season in League Two (before a promotion, not in the other direction…) I just want to run the final rule over 2010/2011, with the 10 reasons why I believe we […]
Andrew Fitton: Swindon saviour or failure?
April 28, 2011 By 5 Comments
I’m writing this post whilst watching the Real Madrid versus Barcelona 1st leg of the Champions League semi-final. This is, of course, a level of football which whilst Swindon Town supporters might dream of and achieve only in Football Manager, we accept that to actually reach this level is a nigh-on certainty that it’ll never happen in […]
Danny Wilson: Hero to villain?
March 4, 2011 By 1 Comment
Brought to Swindon Town by Andrew Fitton with the task to ensure Town avoided relegation in 2008/2009. Two years on, after reaching the highs of 2nd place and a Wembley play-off final, it’s a complete turnaround in fortunes that saw Danny Wilson quit the relegation threatened club. To follow Maurice Malpas, Fitton made the right choice […]
2010 STFC Review: August
December 27, 2010 By Leave a Comment
Despite the despair of play-off defeat the mood around STFC for the season was high. I even put £30 on Town to finish in the top 3… In came Michael Rose, David Prutton, David Ball (on loan), Simon Ferry, Paul Caddis then Thomas Dossevi. On paper I certainly was led to believe Town were asserting a […]

Danny Wilson has only served as manager of Swindon Town for two years, having been appointed on Boxing Day 2008 after his out of the blue dismissal from Hartlepool earlier that month. In this period Town have progressed from relegation certainties to a Wembley Play-off final, however now questions are being asked of Wilson as Town fail […]
2010 STFC Review: May
December 25, 2010 By Leave a Comment
I don’t suppose you need much reminding what occurred in May. It was a truly memorable month and culmination to the season of many moments of agony and ecstasy. With Town 4 points behind Leeds, the visit of Brentford to the County Ground required a home win coupled with both Milwall and Leeds picking up no more than a single point each to […]
2010 STFC Review: March
December 23, 2010 By Leave a Comment
March couldn’t have got off to a worse start. After 13 league games unbeaten, Bristol Rovers did the double over Town with a emphatic 4-0 victory at The County Ground, to add to their 3-0 victory back in December. What a win it was for the rampant Rovers. 3-0 up at half time and very clinical in […]

Near Signing – Town Dismiss Alan Gow’s New Wage Demands
August 31, 2010 By Leave a Comment
Is Alan Gow a central defender I hear you cry? No he isn’t. Town were widely regarded by supporters to bring in an experienced centre back to replace the now irreplaceable Gordon Greer. Yet, Alan Gow is a 27 year old Scottish forward, who was released from fellow League One team Plymouth Argyle earlier this summer. Alan made 14 […]
