Relegation, demotion and perhaps a promotion …the continuing story of Swindon Town F.C.
Each month we’ll invite our readers to induct an entry into the Hall of Shame. For the first vote we’re asking you to decide which was the worst match under the tenure of Maurice Malpas. We’ve picked five choices. Vote for the match that should be inducted into the Hall of Shame. Voting closes at 5pm on Wednesday 25th […]
No.2 – Leon Clarke & Mike Grella A list of the top eleven moments of 2011 wouldn’t be right without the petulant Leon Clarke featuring somewhere. Even though the incident brought masses of negative publicity to the County Ground it’ll live long in our memories, so this justifies its placing at No.2 in our countdown […]
No.28 | Jimmy Quinn | Manager Oct 1998 – May 2000 | Score 157.7 Northern Irishman Quinn joined Town for a third time in 1998 as manager to replace Steve McMahon. Initially the move paid off for Chairman Rikki Hunt as Quinn led Town to the relative safety of 17th, 3 points above the drop. In […]
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.

First up came 2nd placed Leeds United at Elland Road. […]
And what a year it has been! A year of the proverbial two halves. After spending January to May fighting for promotion, Town now find themselves looking up and down, more than touching distance away from mounting a real promotion challenge. January 2010 started with around 6,000 Town fans travelling to Fulham for the FA Cup 3rd […]
Has anyone else started to have concerns over Jonathan Douglas being club captain? Or is it just me that I’m now starting to look for a scapegoat following our more than disappointing start to the season? Have we won a game where Douglas has been captain? Don’t get me wrong, I really admire what he […]
With the start of the 2010/2011 League One campaign almost upon us, there is no better time to look ahead to May and make an attempt at trying to predict the final league positions. Many national news outlets have hardly considered Town as possible promotion candidate so far. BBC 5Live decided to completely overlook Town in favour […]
