Title: Swindon Town Vs Burton Official Matchday Thread.
Post by: SuggWillSugg MBE on Saturday, February 4, 2012, 02:30:14
Was touch and go tonight about whether I would be going out and drinking.

However my friends manned up and we did!

Don't see why we can't win this game to go top however I have a funny feeling super Wes will concede. no idea why.

3-1 to the town!

Solid 2-0 with Ritchie and Benson on the mark. I'm debating as to whether to throw in an abandoned match sometime in the second half due to snow..... :hmmm:

About to be stood on a stupidly cold market and I have forgotten my radio, so will miss the match entirely.

More squad rotation and a comfortable 2-0 win.

A tight nervy 1-0 as the chance to go top plays on everybody's minds.

Post by: Langers on Saturday, February 4, 2012, 07:59:38
Can't see it going ahead.

Big incentive to win if it does, we go top but it will be a tough game, Burton are a good side.

2-1 defeat.

That's becoming as much a superstition as Sir SuggWillSugg starting the match day thread :)


Title: Re: Swindon Town Vs Burton Official Matchday Thread.
Post by: Ginginho on Saturday, February 4, 2012, 08:01:53
Really can't see anything other than a comfortable victory today, 5 wins on the bounce, Burton on a poor run and hampered by a fair few injuries.
4-0 Town.

I've found a picture on my phone of a long queue outside the back of the Town End, in the dark, floodlights on.  Sent by my brother a few hours ago.  Nutters, the lot of them.  Still - all worth it if we manage three points at the Kassam.

Back to today, I'm still doubtful whether it will go ahead.  According to Google it's -9°C in Swindon.  Really hope it does though.  THey're on a rotten run of form at the moment.  There for the taking.

So many matches called off, such a great opportunity to get points on the board without fixture pile up.

Southend game at Plymouth is going ahead too...


Title: Re: Swindon Town Vs Burton Official Matchday Thread.

It is meant to be quite a bit warmer in Plymouth today.

-7C just up the road here in Exeter and it's trying to snow. That said the forecast is a lot better down here 3 - 4C and some rain so I'd say it's likely to be a goer.

Comfortable 3-1 with Bodin notching another,off to thaw water troughs now so the cows can have a drink

Looks like we are going to get some without the rain here in York. We are staying in the middle of nowhere so may make leaving tomorrow morning interesting...if they have the forecast rght.

This has no relevance to the Burton match, obviously.

I reckon we'll come back to earth with a bump today, IF it goes ahead. Reckon they'll park the bus and we'll struggle to break them down so for that reason I'm going for a nil-nil.

Gutted - got to spend the afternoon decorating now instead!

If this weather continues, can see Barnet being off as well?  Hope not, because we'll end up with awful fixture congestion.

I wonder if the luck of Sir SuggWillSugg would work if we changed this to the:
"We want Bradford and Plymouth to win Official Matchday Thread"?

Plymouth look as though they really will be a Conference side next season. Amazing fall for a club of that size.


Title: Re: Swindon Town Vs Burton Official Matchday Thread.
Post by: Bennett on Saturday, February 4, 2012, 16:46:57
ref didn't interpret konchesky as having put his hands into ferry's face though, that's the difference (the ref at leicester got it very wrong mind you)

Post by: Costanza on Saturday, February 4, 2012, 16:47:56
I think they'll survive.

Oh the comments I remember from (then Championship) Argyle fans in relation to Exeter City (who were then Conference) when I lived down there.
