Great result for both of us tonight, nice one.

Just to back up my arguments on here, we took over 2000 to st marys tonight, cant wait to take the same numbers to falmer.

Glanced at the table earlier, and I would say that there's still a- slim- chance that Swindon might grab automatic promotion. Play offs are all but guaranteed.

Just goes to show how funny football is, as having seen both our games against them this season, they were nowhere near the standard of some of the teams I've seen this year. Either they had two bad games against us (and maybe its a good sign for them that they won both of them despite apparently being a pretty average side), or Austin and Paynter are doing a great job of camouflaging some decidedly ordinary midfielders and defenders.

Amazing what you can do with two dangerous goalscorers in your team, as with all due respect, I can't see many of their other players being good enough to succeed at a higher level.

That said, I think Norwich will have a nasty shock when they go up, as I have a hunch Grant Holt just doesn't have the pace to play in the Championship. Nor does Ricky Lambert, but then again the Saints have no need to worry about promotion just yet :lolol:

I think that it will be a few years before Swindon join us in The Championship to play us at Falmer. I would bet on us getting promoted aiutomatically next season but not Swindon either this or next.

I think that Leeds Norwich and Charlton this year.
Us ,Southampton and 1 relegated team possibly Scunthorpe next year.

we played awful against you both times, but im loving the fact not just you but every club in this division thinks we're shit. 66 points says we're not that bad :)

I must admit when Russell Slade suggested Swindon would be the dark horses of league one this season I had my doubts but they are going from strength to strength.

My ex-housemate is a Swindon fan and we share a healthy rivalry though I wouldn’t admit to him, I think Swindon will make the play off final and have a decent chance of going up. There I’ve said it…. I feel a bit dirty now.

Come on, the view is terrible, the facilities are terrible and it is probably one of the costlier away trips as far as ticket price is concered. I doubt I would bother coming to Withdean if I supported another League One club.

Also, I am not sure our home support can really claim any sort of high ground when it comes to getting behind your team...
