i dont want to take money away from the club, but there is a company called savillerouge that sells really nice traditional footie scarves.. I bought my missus one for christmas last year... Who said romance is dead? And yes... we were at the CG on valentines day - I even treated her to a bovril.  |

I think we should get real old school and wear 1970's style satin scarves.
(Tied around our wrists, obviously)
Believe it or not, I have one of these. It says 'Swindon Town' on one side and 'Robins' on the other. |

to be honest, I felt a bit odd holding my scarf up at Aldershot, but it's a solidarity thing with PDC, and I always have a scarf anyway, so I'm a fan of it. When PDC leaves (or when we're mid-table next season) it'll probably stop, so let's enjoy it while we can.

I'm liking the new trend of scarves at Swindon and have several myself even if I don't take them too the games.
I also like the fact that there's quite a bit of variety between them and you see several different, sometimes from very different eras along with the later ones. Has a very natural feel to it. Liverpool have been doing it for years and it looks quality

It's far better than the very forced, plastic and cringeworthy option of everyone having matching scarves, usually because the club have decided to give them out

Newcastle United's striped scarves looked brilliant every time I saw them.

It looks pretty good, but it's all a bit plastic when the club just decides to hand them out one day and they all match. Seems like something Reading would do, if you ask me our lot at Aldershot looks better.

Agree with that - the way every Chelsea fan has the same flag at some of their games looks ridiculously tacky. The scarves at Aldershot and Gills have looked great though. Hopefully that'll continue for Port Vale and Bradford! |

We need a raised scarf smiley. And one of Paolo doing his "we're going up, you're staying down" motion.

We have a minutes silence at the start of the final home game each season to remember all the town fans who have passed away over the course of the season. good opportunity for people to hold up scarves again in tribute

Haven't had a Town scarf since I was 10 but bought one in the Town shop yesterday for this very purpose. Red and white stripes with Town crest on each end....£10.......bargain. Won't wear it to every game but definitely Saturday and Bradford (handy for those scorching places up north next season I suppose  ). |

Seems this will happen again. Tweet from the club sayin that turnstiles will shut at 2.50pm due to the end of season roll call.
I'm guessing they will open again afterwards
