If you think back to 3 yrs ago and the Wise/Poyet pre-season, there were almost daily reports
and speculation on traillists at the Wanborough training ground.This time around there's next
to nothing in that regard.

From the station at Colchester
To the cells of Warrington
From the services at Leicester
To the slums of Northampton
We travel over England
And one day Europe too
Cos we all follow the Swindon
We're the famous Town End crew.

Ricky Shakes just had a trail at Caley Thistle but wanted to stay in Enger-land for personal reasons.
Paul Benson of Dagh&ham linked again to Town in a local rag.

Those god-awful Kent pikeys were close to signing him, but were put off by the £150,000 price tag. Consistent scorer. |

Awful lot money on a 27 year old with only one year in the league, and it goes against Fittons policy of buying young and selling for a profit. I'd be very suprised and worried if we spent 150k on him as our main replacement of Cox |

He's 30 in October. Can't see us spending much to get him. |

Didnt realise he was that old, so he's not really for us then..... If he was 21 or something fair play, but not 30.

I can remember reading a conversation about who a player was in one of the training pictures, then I read this. http://www.swindon.vitalfootball.co.uk/article.asp?a=160586This sites suggests its Cherno Samba. Any ideas if there is any truth in this?? |

Chortle I wrote that. It's based purely on my own observations from that photo. I am 95% sure it's him though.

God no. To be honest, this was the first thing I've published without any media speculation beforehand. It's not Jean-Francois, unless he changed clothes, boots and the way he looks during that training session  |
