Please spare a minute to laugh at Swindon Town

Who drives their bus, Frank Spencer?

Too many times recently there have been arrogant 'we're better than you, look at us and our new stadium' posts on this board, so it's refreshing to see the replies here are the opposite.

this humilty is refreshing, i agree

 

[Uncle Buck]

Could you please stay in Swindon?

Thanks.

Threads like this are the reason SOME of our fans are getting a reputation for being arrogant. This kind of post is the reason we all HATED Saints fans last season.

I thought they were very good when they played us at Withers this season, far too good to be in the position that they were in, but the table dosen't lie.

I think they will come straight back and if the results start coming in so will the punters, just look at us.

Good luck to them I say and it will be very interesting to see how the new manager gets on.

I am not going to gloat.

I can understand a bit of banter if you live there and have loads of mates that are Swindon Town fans. But I can't help but remember that gobby Swindon fan that posted a thread on here a few years ago about how shite we were and how we were about to be relegated etc etc Needless to say it was bounced at the end of last season when our promotion and their relegation was confirmed. Things like that have a habit of coming back and biting you in the arse later in life. Best to avoid too much gloating and ridicule in my opinion as you never know, we may well be in their position in 5 years time

They did say Gordon Greer's move was a sideways one.

That's something to at least raise a chuckle from.

I did all my laughing at them last season.

We laughed at them when we got to Cardiff. They laughed at us when it looked like we'd go down and they'd go up. Finally we laughed at them when the exact opposite happened after we bought their captain. That's football. Good luck to them next season - they're not so different from us, apart from the 12 fingered thing obviously.

I quite like Swindon as a Club and wish them well. If they play next season like they did at Withdean they will be in for a good season. On the other hand - with Di Canio in charge it could all go horribly wrong.

[CHAPPERS]

What a bitter preson you are.

 

[Seagull Steve]

I too understand that living in Swindon must be a nightmare, but I am not one to laugh at other teams misfortune (unless its Palace) We have been so close to the edge, and one game from dropping out of the league altogether. So I say good luck to them, something tells me they may need it, with the appointment of D Canio.

At last someone who realises that I live in Swindon and so its the law to laugh at them...

The rest of you get back on your high horses, you have ALL slagged of other teams at sometime or other, even if it is/was Palace...

Personally I have ZERO sympathies for Swindon, their nasty gobshite fans, or their fascist manager. I'm a bad person.

 

[Austrian Gull]

Surely the really annoying people living in Swindon are those that support Premier League clubs.

We might have had a bit of recent rivalry with Swindon but I have more respect for those who actually get off their arse and support their local club than some self-proclaimed big four fan from Wiltshire.

The one thing that I did laugh about was all the hand wringing they did when Plymouth went into administration.

They were falling over themselves to say that it would feel wrong if they stayed up at Plymouth's expense just because of the points deduction.

So it seems they made sure that didn't happen.....
