Proper buzzing. When you see it that full you wonder if there are a lot of City in there. But at half 7 this lad gave out a mighty 'GIVE US AN S!', the whole pub (300 odd) fell silent whilst the fella belted it out and got a great response. 95% Swindon. Any City in there left quietly.

Anyone else in there? Proper good noise.

I didnt go last night but I do love that pub before big games.It makes me laugh when our opposition go in there Ive seen loads get slaps .

That guy was virtually on his own. He screamed give me an S and about five people responded. The CG Hotel has gone right down hill in the last couple of years. It used to be rocking every week, it's just dead as fuck now. Last night was O.k a bit of atmosphere in there but nothing special.

bets time i had in a pub was Leeds away last season and also QPR's Springbox.

leeds was rammed when someone did the same "Give us an Ssssssssss"
thing is every single person in there responded. Even the guys playing pool stopped to join in. :beers

remember the bar maid saying we were the loudest that had been in there.

Going to QPR is always quality

was my first time last year and i thought it was ace.
in the pub with 4 qpr fans v x amount of us all singing we hate city :beers

Fair enough. I thought he got quite a decent response. More than 5!!! More like 50. There was 20 of us round the pool table.

You got complimentary executive tickets for Huddersfield by any chance?

Who's asking? Do I know you?

I was chatting to one of you lads last night. Im not going to Hudds anyway.

You lads get to a good number of away games. I was trying to fill a minibus to Hull. Still am.

Walsall and Bournemouth away?

Yeah we get to as many as we can. Can't make Hull though bud i'm afraid. Shame really, it'd be nice to get trashed in the minibus, cause some trouble and that. :beers

You're a Chippenham boy then yeah?

I should think trouble will find us up there. Iv more or less quit that now anyway.

Was with 3 Chippenham at Walsall. Good lads. Im not Chippenham though. I remmember at Walsall 4 of us, 4 of you, only realised you were Swindon when we got within about 10 metres! hehe.

That was a pretty crap day out though really.

Was pretty crap. We didn't know you were Swindon either, we thought we had to kick off for a second.

ha ha, MR there was a shout of a lad of S which was brilliantly responded to

5 minutes later that other lad tried to match it and got no response.

Sprencer - heading up in a car to hull but will prob meet up at some point

Spencer, you know the Chippenham lad who got nicked?  I didn't think he was Swindon, only seen him at the home play-off last year.  Got kicked out at half-time with a lad I know, then walked round the town centre trying to start something, singing Swindon songs but getting the words wrong.

Think the same thing nearly happened that day as to you at Walsall.

No offence to anyone on this thread, but last time I was in the CGH the cunt next to me was singin KKK songs.

 That kind of put me off a bit, the uneducated prick. now I drink in the winners bar :oops:

Come in the Merlin Piemonte,the Winners is for losers.

I'm tempted yeovil, but my non-forum-contributing-but-has-season-ticket-next-to-me mate will think I'm proper wierd meeting my imaginary friends off the t'interweb :oops:

even if one does look like cheggers  :D

:soapy tit wank: I know exactly what you mean ,dont tell him your meeting people off the internet cos that sounds weird .Just bump into me and spacey.

Merlin's got to be the pre match pub of choice, web buddies or no web buddies.  Winners is dead, we gave it a go earlier in the season and it was shit.  Least there's a decent crowd in the merlin

I know what you mean :soapy tit wank:

'Let's go meet some people I met on the internet'
'You fucking what you cunt? :soapy tit wank:  Birds is it?'
'No, lads'


I drink in the Merlin on matchdays, might have to come in disguise 8)

 :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick

I think thats the exact conversation I'd be having too

Merlin's gonna be weird, they'll be all these lads loooking round at other lads thinking, I wonder if that's Yeovil/Piemonte/Amir/Sonic......  I'm gonna be scared of my own shadow!

I wouldn't really mind much, it's just I know the story would be twisted to make me the object of ridicule(it's usual me that twists things).  Alot of people still think my mate got rubbed up in the town end toilets :D

I'm easy to spot, I look nothing like you probably imagine  8)

I forgot to add the predictable gay accusation

'Let's go meet some people I met on the internet'
'You fucking what you cunt? :soapy tit wank: Birds is it?'
'No, lads'
'you fucking homo. you love the cock'
 :D

People will think the merlins turned into a gay bar...... groups of lads stood around staring at each other looking a bit nervous and shifty :soapy tit wank:

That and i'll be wearing hotpants and a crop top.  :wink:

cooo-eeee boys!

Quality PM!!!  

Don't think the meat head looking land lord would be too impressed with that!!  One or two of the bouncers might not object though.

Two mobs of Swindon charged at each other in the Town centre after that game, 30 a side!

And just to say Winners is for loosers! But the Merlin is turning into a decent home pub now. Iv got in there quite a few times this season. Its funny watching groups of away fans (who have drunk there in previous seasons) being told to hop on by the bouncers. Some Bournemouth started bashing on the windows after being turned away last month. We thought about chasing them up the road, but never bothered.

ha! one of the dozey city fans tried to get in the merlin and the bouncer asked where he was from. his reply was 'Trowbridge' - what a wanger
