i didn't know where to put this! but apprantley...this is the song for the season we got promoted to the premiership in 1993.

just watching it makes me think will i ever see a successful swindon team? cause for 10 years i have watched mostly crap grace the county ground, and it does sadden me hearing all your tales from these times, cause i know, that swindon will probably never make the premiership again.

It brought a smile to my face today though instead of a cringe.

The only thing that song is good for is reminiscing about the good times.

Very true, and they were good times. Wasn't it written to highlight the injustice of the demotion after we beat Sunderland in 90? I remember smashing my radio and crying when they announced the news we'ed been demoted to div 3 - I was out playing footie with my mates who all used to go to the games and we had a portable radio waiting for the result of the hearing - it got smashed to pieces.

I was much happier after the 2nd visit to Wembley in 93, but remember shitting my pants (not literally!) when Leicester scored those 3 quick fire goals, but good old chalky came off the bench at won us that pen. I met him about 5 years ago at my mates wedding (my mate used to play for Bath City) and it was when Bodin and White were both there, I was so pissed I got down on my knees at the reception and hailed chalky as my hero and said I wasn't worthy enough to even speak to him! He was a nice bloke though and told me to get up and bought me a beer.

Johno, cheers for that fella, that song brings back so many memories, especially the shot of the ground at the start.  Almost brought a tear to my eye!!

Like I've said before the feelings I experienced during those seasons is probably the reason why I still go.  Like a high from a drug I suppose.

Defo "Post of the Month" for me - gold star to Johno!

Thanks, John Monkfish is a legend!. I couldnt fit his whole phrase of "Oi love, put your knickers back on and make me a cup of tea!" in. Sad

Here's my 2005 version of the song - it kept me busy for a minute or two

So here we are,
many years from Eric and John Moncur,
From the Premier to' third we made it
And when Razor wanted his money we paid it
And now Super Sam has gone
 
Oh how Stuart Mac cried,
losing 7-0 at Bolton - no place to hide
Now Swindon Borough Council - they deny us
and next year you will find us
Playing in Chippenham
 
League 1 we belong
We've been here for so long
Now most of our fans have gone
 
League 1 we belong
This division ain't that strong
We'll be bankrupt before too long
