yer 2: the yer of yer.

you reds!!!

i mean...yer

errrrm

yer

Bloody hell I'm relying on you eloquent sods to keep me informed of the state of play tonight.  Unless Radio Fab Luton FM is carrying the match on the internet

yer?

I think I'll watch Sky Sports News tonight.

Can't be bothered with shiteFM, or whatever they're called.....................

I cant get Brunel so Ill think Ill go swimmimg

I dont think I will be allowed to rig that radio up on poolside today though!

I cant get it in this fucking place

fucking 2ft thick walls

I have to sleep soon. Booooooooo, down with responsibilities and those kind of things.

I've taken to just having Radio Swindon on for the updates but I might give Brunel a chance tonight. Won't know if they've improved if I don't.

I'm going to a pool party Friday night

How fucking ace is that ????

 8)

very fucking ace!  8)

If I ever went to a pool party I would be the geek in the corner going "dont run" "no diving" ha ha!

Is that a "balls on the table" party or "balls in the water"?

:mrgreen:

its at my new gym

wall to wall packed with gash I tell thee

Oh my god - we never have pool partys at work!!

right Im going in tonight and demanding one!!!!

 :beers: Balls everywhere then  :beers:

Im going with Andy friday

How fucking ace is that

Asked a girl at college once if she liked Dickens.

"Dunno" she said, "I've never been to one"

Kanyuka to start tonight according to OS.

Looking forward to this one.

I'm hoping Corr and Ashikodi start up front and Kanyuka is aw-diddly-awesome at the back.

yer.

Pook starts on the right wrong again? Roberts on the bench ...

Roberts on the bench, Pook starting.

Looks like MM is continuing with his policy of having JP in the middle and Pooky out wide :?

Yoofs are 1-0 up already.

Eh? Why not the other way around? Think Roberts might leave tbh.

Just going by his comments after the Crewe game and the fact that he seems to think JP is good back up in CM.

I'd prefer it if he had Roberts out wide and JP in the middle, but maybe I'm totally wrong and he'll play Pook CM and JP wide.

Basically I'm just guessing as I don't know what he's gonna do  :D

Roberts in ... Pook on the bench  :soapy tit wank:

According to Ed from Kenilworth Road

Ace  :D

Not according to the OS.........................

Peter Brezovan; Miguel Comminges, Patrick Kanyuka, Hasney Aljofree ©, Jamie Vincent; J-P McGovern, Michael Pook, Lee Peacock, Anthony McNamee; Barry Corr, Moses Ashikodi

Good chance for Kanuka to impress and keep Jerel on the bench on Sat as well of course

Glad he's not putting Pook wide - but not sure about JP in the middle, shows how short of central mid's we are though....

On the OS? Must be true. Ed lied.  :-))(

And Yoofs 2-0 ... both Ben Joyce.... who needs Cox now!

2-0 to the yoofs?

Kid's 2-0 up now

No need for the smug smiley twat features.

Sorry Bollock Chops, wasn't meant as smug smiley. Try tchy instead?

I can live with tchy :D

We need a kiss and make up smiley. In a blokey way of course!

what gym is this fred? i need a gym buddy xxx

Next Generation mate

We're kicking from left to right you know.

Starting line up anyone? Brunel have neglected to tell us and were speculating whether Blair Sturrock or Barry Corr would start just 20 seconds before kick off  :-))(

Ha Ha Radio Swindon are asking what single was number 1 when you were 18!! Fuck off am I telling  8)

Swindon Yoof

 :mrgreen:

sonic yoof are better

I must admit I like the sound of this Ashley Cody bloke
when did we sign him then ?

 :mrgreen:

Is the Yoof game one or two legged?

blimey o'reilly, this is the first two minutes that iv ever heard from brunel fm, and its utter utter gash.

Brunel seem to have gone from no emotion at all earlier in the season, to cumming in their pants any time we enter the last third of the pitch.

Is it just me or is the fella doing the updates on this match on the Beeb THE most boring sounding man ever??

I can't even get Brunel!

Getting themselves into a sticky situation there...

Im off to move a washing machine into my mate Pads house, can someone text me updates as there will be a few town fans helping tonight

Cheers

spot on Chris

Isn't the Brunel effects mic bringing a bit too much crowd noise tonight

Least he realised that Swindon are actually playing...

Evening Frederick.

I think World is a couple of minutes behind proper radio. Makes me look a bit of a spaz when I post ages after something happens.

Got no idea...

Worra bout 21 Sept 19 .....65

Cox tries to chip keeper...and it goes over

Cox would have buried that chance.....

God we could do with Simon Cox. Or anybody else who can score.

That means I'm exactly 18 years older than you.

How random............

Do They Know It's Christmas?

Young and unappreciative - great song, fact!

Probably, Christianity is the most widely practiced religion in Ethiopia.

Doing well lacking on the final ball though - need to excert a bit more pressure by the sounds of it and we should score....

Just spoke 2 mex. said its boring and moses should have scored.

update from axs

"Pretty shit so far, moses doesn't seem to have a finish on him and roberts isn't firing. Luton look pretty shit too though, could go either way."

Isn't "Thwack" an ace word

Onomatopoeia is a wonderful thing Fred!

 :mrgreen:  :mrgreen:

Oooooh - Town End forum bigged up on Radio Wiltshire - how exciting!

Ha Ha we at the TEF get a mention - wonder if it was my text  8)

haha aceness.

he should sign up here

As has been said before-when he's on his game,he is the best player we've got

Cheers young 'un.  :old:

how ace was that

Keep it up Swindon!
Sounds like we're really on top of em

Sounds like Roberts is having a stormer.

2-0 to the yoooooofs at full time.

ace

sounds like he is skinning their LB at every opportunity.

Gary Numan magic - bbc rs

That is what is so frustrating about Roberts on his day he is one of the best in the League just does not do it often enough, lets hope this is a start fo good run in the team for him

I dont know why it interests me but Sean O'Hanlon,Gary Alexander and Peter Thorne have all just scored

Excellent - well done to them

oxford 1-0 down at aldershot

pox losing 1.0 :mrgreen:

It might just be me but I think he's been brilliant for us so far this season, particularly in the first few months.

He does have his off days but no more than anyone else in the team, he just seems to get more stick for it for whatever reason.

....oh and Oxford are losing again!

Aldershot 1-0 Oxford Utd: Grant (65)

 :soapy tit wank:

Aldershot 1 Pox 0   :D

Zab's on

Sounds like McNamee has played well.

Tits has been on good form recently though. Had a fucking stormer against Forest! But then again so did Blair Sturrock. Maybe Forest are just shit?

Ant off?

Redbullzeye

respec man

I don't like creeeeeeeeeeeket .... oh no ... I luuuuuuuuuvvve eeeeeeeetttttttttt ...

 :nod:

:king:

Knew he wouldn't be able to resist that one  8)

two games in a row macnamee has been subbed off after an hour

Leeds still losin :D

Fitness?

Match fitness is low... Still sounds like he's playing very well.

Asthma I think?

Maybe heavy pitches dont suit the Ant

aye rich. if true then we're basically going into matches with only two available subs if he starts

hes asthamtic ain't he?

I don't think i've heard McGoverns name, nor Peacock.

You see that's the problem with listening to Radio 2  :D

He's got asthma but it doesn't stop him from playing 90 minutes.

Think this is down to match fitness.............

Are you listening on STFC World?

What, on the pitch? I say!

Yeah

That'll be it :D

i'm not moaning about macnamee, i'd be surprised any football club would give him a contract if he was medically incapable of playing ninety minutes.

i still think sofi's awesome though

I was gonna say Dean you must be listening to that Classical FM again and mistaking it for a football match.

It's an easy mistake to make I guess.

Ashikidi off Sturrock on

Sturrock on

Birdy: "I can't get World to work."

Sussex: "Have you got the sound on?"

Birdy: "Um, no."

Sussex: "Bye".

 :soapy tit wank:

Arthur Hunt: "Blair Sturrock on for, well, the last 15 minutes I'd imagine"

You don't say Arthur? I thought he might go off after 10 minutes.

I JUST lAUGHED OUT LOUD AT THAT

you stupid bitch

 :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

I always remeber u saying to me, he needs taking down around the back of the Stratton bank and need shooting.

has anyone met him ?

Are Luton fans booing everything?

"Throw in for Swindon"
Luton fans: BOOOOO!!

"Throw in for Luton"
Luton fans: BOOOO!!

"Goal kick for Luton"
Luton fans: BOOOOO

 :D

he can be lazy, he can be very frustrating but he's fucking class.

I have not changed my philosophy on that Scot, young man

Arthur? Absolutely

Yes ...

Arthur used to work at PHH around 10 years ago, when I was there.

All arthurs are 78 yrs +

FACT

You always get plenty of goals with Keegan!

Ridiculous.

My great uncle Arthur is 77.

Keegan promised the Toon fans goals and he's a man of his word.

Arsenal 3 Newcastle 0.

Met the Boob and the Minge in the car park behind the Brunel centre.  Shame the Cock wasn't there.  Very polite guys

I remember when centre half were hard men. Get up you big girl Ajofree.

Oh concussion, fair enough. That's him out Saturday then. Is Ifil back?

Great minds Herthab!

 :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

He looks a bit like the guy who used to play Arthur on 'On The Buses'.

It's OK they've got Wise doing their transfer dealings.

Curtis Weston with Joey Barton in midfield. Maybe Fola upfront?

Oh oh Fabregas scored. he is in my dream team 8)

Aljofree off - must be bad he don't normally go off with injuries

he's not suspended no.

kanyuka and ifil - could be fun  :D  :D

I believe so. Ifil's only got a one match ban for 5 bookings... I believe.

Who? Sofi? Never!

Head injury.

"Hasney Aljofree off with a head injury"
Luton Fans: BOOOO!!!

"Nothing is happening"
Luton fans: BOOOOO!!!

Tails: BOOOOO

 :D

Arthur: Trainer Dick Mattick on (he's a school teacher Arthur..(and stfc historian)

It could be worse. We could have Newcastle's centre halves

they're booing their own ground, it's so shit

Kanyuka head injury as well  :shock:

Dick Matick sounds like one of Birdy's toys (and I don't mean Sussex).

Or Forest's

BOOOOOO

Fucking hell another head injury...

I wonder what the Luton fans think.

BOOOOO!!!

Thought so.

Yeah, my old history teacher.

Middle name : Mallory !!!  :shock:  :soapy tit wank:

Zaboob heavy touch. Fred will be happy.

Bugger Chester 0-4 Rochdale. That's shagged my accumulator :?

Luton fans: BOOOO!!!

BOOOOOOOOO

Dick Mattick is the one that writes the Swindon books isn't he?

WHAT THE FUCK?!

7 mins added time. WTF!!!!!

7 minutes time added on

Boooooooo

seven minutes of injury time!

7 mins of injury time.....where has that come from ?

7 minutes? wtf

Final scores :

Southend 1 Leeds 0
Aldershot 1 Pox 0    

 :soapy tit wank:  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

7 fucking minutes???

When did Ferguson take the Luton job? FFS!

7 minutes!! fuck off

we're gonna lose now

Yep that's the one  :soapy tit wank:

Cue Parkin...

oxford lost 1-0  :mrgreen:

First time the Luton fans haven't booed all night.

Miserable fuckers.

Then again I'd be miserable if I lived in Luton.

3 minutes left.

FFS don't even think that sort of thing

Go the Swindon town!!

These 7 minutes are going on forever!!!

It was a typo, he thinks SSP's cute

I didn't say what he was going to do.

I meant cue Parkin fucking it up!  :mrgreen:

Come on blow the fucking whistle!!!

5 seconds short!

A final quote from Arthur Hunt for the night: "Final score, Swindon Town one, Swindon nil."

What a twat.

 :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

the stupid background music on radio swindon does my head in

You don't get class like that on MoTD. So up to 10th and five points off play-offs. And the kids through in the Youth Cup. Good night

really?

leave him alone :x

he's a bit happy with the win.

I like him.

I quite liked tonights double team style commentry.

BBc make just as manymistakes anyway

commentary was 10 fold better than it usually is tonight.

I thought brunel was pretty good today.

maurice sounds a right bundle o' laughs

Above Yeovil-that gives me an unreasonable amount of satisfaction

Me too :mrgreen:

Could be a busy transfer day tomorrow.

Or it could be quiet.

Malpas sounds like he is thinking about his answer before he gives it

Fucking non-league upstarts!

Everyone loves being over me :nono:

seamless mix on BBc :D

One of the good nights.....youths beating Boro is very impressive.   Winning without Jerel,  equally so.  Happy days  :D

Reg in positive post shocker!

not to mention the absence of Easton...

....although the last two games Barnet and Crewe we've apparently (I didnt go to either) played rubbish.

Both games Pook played.

Out the team and we win.

Couldn't blame Pook for much at Barnet, we just didn't turn up! Still its 1 win and 2 draws from 3 games without Easton, which is a bit of a relief really

And lets hear it for Christian Roberts - slagged off by so many for not giving a fuck yet scores the goal (again) that wins he game.  As far as I'm concerned he's always worth his place in the team cos he has that something extra that stands out in this league.  Sure, he may not always be able to come up with it but so often he's the difference and he did it tonight.

Not to mention the fact he's probably our most under-rated player.

Been very good for us this season.

Yeah I agree!
Robbo gives us that extra something that McGovern lacks, i.e. Pace, running at defenders etc, although to be fair to JP, he does deliver some pin point crosses/passes, and works well with the Minge

Roberts may be a frustration for so many but if he could do it week in week out he wouldn't be playing for Swindon.  Watching Roberts against Leeds he scared the shite out of them - they hadn't got a clue what he was going to do - I'd always have in in the team for the first 60 minutes at least - but I've just drunk half a box wine  :D Brilliant evening on site and now I've got to hit the hay

Pretty much sums Roberts up for me as well. His cocky strutting about does my fucking head in, but he's a fuck of a nightmare for unsuspecting defenders when he's in the mood.

Well done the lads tonight, and to the youth team as well.

I'm hoping Fitton will turn us into a keeping club from now on so that some of the talent that Byrne nurtured will play in our colours at least for a couple of seasons, before moving on to bigger clubs for huge transfer fees.

people should employ that logic with zaaboub as well.

i enjoy watching good footballers and roberts is definitely one of them, i'd prefer him in the side over mcgovern anyday.

Zaaboub is fucking class. How some of our fans have the brass neck to boo him when he fucks up now and then is off the radar.

Difficult to choose between McGovern and Roberts. Roberts is more mobile and tricky, but is a pain in the fucking arse when he's off his game. McGovern is more tenacious and delivers crosses when he gets forward.

I've always thought Roberts would be a superb player if managed correctly. He's got the sort of personality that Ferguson would do well with - loads of talent but a shit attitude laden with demons, which, as someone else already said, is why he's been enigmatic all of his career and wound up playing for us.

McGovern is probably the more consistent of the two, but Roberts is more unpredictable. If I were a defender I'd fucking shit my shorts if Roberts was on form and wanted to take the piss. Fuck that.

I wouldn't go that far. I agree that people should see him as they see Roberts because he certainly has the potential to be a great threat in this division. But he has so many bad games and cocks up an aweful lot of situations.

I'm personally glad we have Zaaboub and Roberts though because on their day they can be very dangerous

roberts has also had to adapt his game somewhat over the years, obviously being moved from up front to the wing but also he lost that electric pace he had before those hernia operations.

no doubting jp's effectiveness when crossing the ball but i don't find him exciting to watch. i think i differ from a lot of fans because i'd rather be entertained than see us grind out results and roberts is undoubtedly the more entertaining player.

i don't understand why people boo players like zaaboub and roberts. i've seen games where zaaboub has looked lazy and disinterested and in those circumstances, i think it's perfectly reasonable to give him a bit of shit. the same applies to roberts although to a lesser extent, he is always willing to give his all.

you're spot on about roberts' unpredictability, it does make him fucking tough to defend against. as for his personality - king never got anything out of roberts and nor did iffy. i think it speaks volumes that wise and sturrock managed to bring out his ability.

I love em both. Cheltenham game early in the season, they were both fucking amazing and tore their defence to pieces constantly. I think their players wished they'd phoned in sick that day because they completely took the piss.

I think that's why people get so pissed off with them. They know how amazing they can be, but they just can't do it regularly. Mind you if they could play like their lives depended on it, every week, then neither would be in this league imo.

Actually it may have been Northampton. Fuck knows.

that was a fun evening out. Lots of positives from the game - coped in midfield ok and at the back without Jerel. We didn't play well but Luton really are a bit shit - they had nothing threatening up front.

We looked Ok at times going forward, particularly with comminges, JP and roberts, there was much of a threat on the other wing.

Corr looked short of service as a target man and dropped back a lot to try and get the ball.

Roberts goal was ace - skinned two defenders and buried it under the keeper and into the net.

Just got back, first and foremost what a shit hole that place is!

Luton were poor. Big and strong but lacking any real quality. They just lump it up to furlong up top and pick up the pieces. It's clear from the injuries that our two centre halves have both picked up, cuts to the head, that they had a real aerial battle with furlong and talbot/parkin.

First half both teams didn't really threaten, but second half we came out, got the ball down and began running at them. Robbo was awesome second half and for the first 20 of the second period we should have had more than the one goal. McNamee and Moses both tired, and Hasney went off injured, after this we seemed to settle for what we had, although still threatened on the break and should have had a penalty. Kanyuka was fantastic, as was Miguel and Peacock. The front two worked hard but missed some real chances, particularly Moses' in the first half.

Overall a solid performance and another clean sheet, 8 league games unbeaten and a winnable game saturday at home to Northampton.

A special note to the referee, one of the most bizarre performances I've seen for a long time, with some inexplicable decisions against both teams.

Strange ground, I liked it though... apart from the seats being so close it was impossible to sit down if you are anything over about 6 foot. Nice to go to a ground with character rather than the soul-less bowls that are springing up everywhere.

Brez - Barely had a save to make all night
Back four - Superb, didn't give Luton a sniff all game. Aljofree missed a couple of headers but other than that they didn't put a foot wrong. We've got a right gem in Kanyuka, very impressed.
McNamee - He's got talent, when he gets fully fit and settled in he will cause defenders big problems.
Roberts - Quiet in the 1st half, second half their left back just couldn't handle him. Quality goal.
McGovern - Much better than he was a Crewe in the middle. Decent distribution, would still rather have Easton and Peacock when all are fit though.
Peacock - What you'd expect, got stuck in.
Ashikodi - He's quick, no doubt in that... finishing needs some work.
Corr - Had a quiet game.

Sturrock - Held the ball up well, couple of neat turns that nearly got him through on goal.
Zaaboub - Looks like the competition is doing him good, had a couple of runs but most of the play seemed to be going through Roberts.
Nicho - Did the job

First half things were pretty even, neither team really looked up for it. Second half, much improved. Parkin came on at half time and probably only touched it 4/5 times, certainly can't remember him getting a shot away.

Finally, I think others may have said it, Byrne has completely won me over. When he was first caretaker I thought he was a bit of a twat, but now I can't help but like the bloke. His reaction at the final whistle today was excellent and he always makes the effort to come over and have a chat during the warm-up etc.

byrne was fucking great last night. during warm up playing a bit of football with the yougsters at the front, really made there night. his reaction at the end said it all, the bloke gives a shit.

kanyuka looks a good buy.
conversation at half time
 bennet " roberts worries me he doesnt defend properly and leaves miguel open"
mex" roberts will win this for us, hes the only match winner we have out there stop worrying."
 :D

we were both right  :D

i loved byrnes benjani-esque celebration after the game yesterday pointing at the crowd

What do you guys expect, hes been given a massive chance and he knows if he gets teh fans on side one day he will manage us

Oh and good stewards - all friendly and helpful, no aggro, and let us stand at the back. Even told us to mind the steps out the back as it had been raining and they were slippery.

It's all lies, fuck off I'm having a bad time leave me alone.

Quality result last night, perfect response to 2 games of dross, go and battle an away win out.

I love Christian Roberts  8)

Whats that bit about, bit confused? What did Byrne actually do?

I like the bloke I have to say, always acknowledges the fans.

I cant be bothered to read back the pages however I assume most are aware Oxford also lost to Aldershot last night as well?  :D

Cant be bothered to trawl through but just wanted to say that I heard Redbulleyez "18 birthday song" shout out on BBc wiltshire radio on the way home from swimming ace

Mine is 2 become 2 by the Spice girls - how apt!

Nice to see Maurice has the same opinion

"IF you see Robbo in training that is what you see, he is either a Premiership player or a pub player but we need to get more performances from him."

Thats a pretty shit title for a love song.

:D

Glad to hear people are happy with Kanyuke and hopefully we'll see a bit more from MacNamee in the next couple of games as it sounds like he hasn't shown fully what he's capable of.

Bring on Northampton!

whoops  :oops:
