Relegation, demotion and perhaps a promotion …the continuing story of Swindon Town F.C.
A spectacular season was capped by a match somewhat less so, as Valley Parade played host to the only goalless game in the Football League this weekend. With nothing more than pride to play for, the game itself had somewhat of a pre-season feeling to it, writes Rosie MacGillivray. Both players and supporters shown that […]
Swindon completed the bank holiday weekend with another 1-0 victory, courtesy of a cross-cum-shot from Lee Holmes. It wasn’t pretty, as the power of Northampton looked to out-do the precise passing of Swindon reports Rosie MacGillivray. Given Paolo Di Canio’s dissatisfaction at our performance versus Morecambe, it wasn’t a surprise to see two changes. Ronan Murray returned in place […]
Swindon Town’s quest for the league title suffered a setback Saturday, as they suffered their second consecutive 2-0 away defeat. The defeat makes a seemingly unassailable lead, slightly less unassailable as a Torquay victory closed the gap to four points. Rosie MacGillivray was at Gresty Road to report.

A series of postponed and re-arranged fixtures delayed the inevitable but Town have finally reached top place by beating promotion rivals Shrewsbury 2-1. As a spectacle, it was far from a classic but the gritty performance will prove to be as vital as our recent emphatic victories over Crawley and Southend writes Rosie MacGillivray. Paolo Di Canio kept an unchanged team from our […]
Talk of a striker joining their A420 rivals has been regular since our County Ground clash in August. Instead of James Constable signing for Swindon, it was Mehdi Kerrouche who has joined Oxford for a month. Rosie MacGillivray gives her view on the move and why she agrees with Paolo Di Canio. It is undoubtedly a brave move by Di Canio. Kerrouche hasn’t featured […]
A solid defence is something than Swindon have seldom had. Over the past decade, you can count a dozen Adrian Viveashs for every Gordon Greer. Mis-timed and clumsy tackles, back-passes to the keepers, poor distribution – the County Ground has seen it all, writes Rosie MacGillivray; who inducts her choice for the worst Swindon match of […]
