Why i like being a lower league fan 1.One season your great one season your crap, your really never sure what your going to get, whether it be that great 4-3 victory at Wembley to getting stuffed week in week out in the premiership, getting 2 straight relegations only to be go up as champions the next season. Over the past few seasons we’ve had the chance of going up via the play offs and almost got sent down to league 2 obscurity if it hadn’t been for Danny. To be honest can any Premiership fan go through what we go through year after year, somehow I don’t think they can quite understand (largely due to large financial backing) 2.You never know how much longer you have left, I’m being horribly honest but I can’t see Swindon lasting much after next season. With the CVA Payment coming up fairly soon and no obvious way out without some rich billionaire leaving us in his will (yes the ground maybe improved but it’s a long way away). We’ve regularly struggled to pay players if a game gets postponed. Enjoy it while it lasts boys and girls. 3. The end of season contract fun. I think everyone knows how bad the position is for wages this season and in a mad kind of way I’m looking forward to next season. The main reason why is because we’ve seen a Jekyll and Hyde team all season so I’m glad to get rid of some of the big money players who have failed to deliver constantly this season. Hopefully some fresh faces and a bit of Parkin like passion, you never know, if we become well organised next season we could do a Luton. Plenty of clubs have been in this situation and have come out with greater team spirit. Hopefully we can get a couple of old heads to pull through some of the youngsters. Well I shall finish my little mumble with a saying “what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” lets hope it’s the same from the CVA payment :x Oh yeah I’m just about to send off my season ticket application. I’m going to be a positive town fan this summer. before you ask, yes i have been drinking

I do like supporting a shit team.
You hear people say "I'm a massive man u/arsenal chelsea fan etc" at work or up the pub, you get to reply "really? I'm a season ticket holder at Swindon, been going for years, always will" they soon realise they're out of their depth.
I fucking loves it i does.

i think the great fun you have with the "I'm a massive man u/arsenal chelsea fan etc" fans is as soon as you say i go to most/all the games, when was the last game you saw? most will say errrr and not really have an answer. I've got some respect for fans of the big clubs, my mates been a chelsea fan since he could talk, his old man was in the headhunters and this bloke has missed about 4 games all season home and away (inc europe!). respect the others are a bunch of tits

I tell you what I am proud as fuck to be a true supporter. I find I get a bit of respect for it aswell.
I have no problem with the real fans of the big teams, it's just the armchair cunts who have been nowhere near Old Trafford, Highbury or Stamford Bridge. But they claim to be massive fans because they've been "supporting" them since they were fucking 5 years old. Pathetic. Or they have a matchday program or something like that. Twats all of them. It makes my fucking blood boil.

I was teaching some kids last week, and they all kept on asking which team i supported every time i answered Swindon and everytime the kid's said 'why?' !!! i told them that was where i was born and had no intrest in being an arm chair glory supporter, unlike some idiots that say they support a team and have never been to see them play.
they all went quiet stood there in their man u and arsenal shirts!!!

It makes my fucking blood boil. Word. I'd rather be a fan of Accrington Stanley than some Premiership big shots anyday, just so happens I'm a Swindon fan thanks to my old man. I'll always be fucking glad of that.
