And this is the match where the ref took the players off because of trouble with a minute of so left of the first half, when they came back on they played the remainder of the first half and then turned straight back round for the 2nd half.

The biggest attendance ever at the County Ground - 32,000 people cram in to see the Gunners gain some sort of revenge for their defeat at Wembley two-and-a-half years previously.

In the fourth tier, Swindon turn to a big-name rookie manager with an Italian background as their new boss, and he rings in the changes - promising a more professional outfit, with high fitness levels and commitment:
... then, five years later (22 years ago this weekend) - after back-to-back promotions and leading the Town to the brink of the top flight, said manager leaves the club to join..... West Ham.

"... if we bought someone for £300,000, we'd have to put the tickets up to £10!" Heaven forbid.

As I've missed a couple of weeks, I've uploaded four videos this week to help whet your appetite for the new season:
Swindon vs Crewe - Division Two - 1995/96 A Crewe side that includes future Town players Ashley Westwood and Gareth Whalley - plus future Premiership stars Danny Murphy, Robbie Savage and Neil Lennon - travel to the County Ground for a top-of-the-table clash, and they look to have grabbed a point when Steve Garvey equalises with just twelve minutes remaining. Ten minutes later though, a fortunate Steve Finney penalty puts the Town seven points clear at the top of Division Two.
Swindon vs Bristol City - League Cup - 1987/88 A Jimmy Quinn hat-trick gives the Town a commanding lead over their local rivals in this Littlewoods Cup First Round tie.
In the second leg, City threaten to come back with two goals in the first quarter of an hour. Dave Bamber soon restores a two goal advantage, but just a minute later, City score again - and they look like they might equalise before a Steve Berry penalty wraps the tie up for the Town.
Swindon vs Coventry - 1993/94 A hat-trick from Jan Fjørtoft, including two penalties, wraps up a second successive win for the Town - and the aeroplane celebration is born.
