I'm pleased that we're getting Austin, but let's put it in context. There seem to be about fifteen strikers in the Wessex League who have a goal a game ratio.

So either it's a secret academy for world class strikers, or the standard is a bit crap.

Once, playing on the Polo Ground after school, I scored 15 goals before it got dark and I had to go home go for my tea. I offered my services to STFC for a signing-on fee of just £50k, but they turned me down. They said on the internet it was because the board showed no ambition.

When we signed Walcott, hadn't he scored something stupid like 100 goals in one season as a tacker?

Looks like that Russell Cook has scored the same amount of goals in less games...

I was a central defender but I scored a hat-trick for Warminster Boys in our 23-0 win against Salisbury "B" in the cup ... I was substituted at half-time, livid.

I'm now playing for Arsenal under the pseudonym Thomas Vermaelen.

I think we should sign the formidable front-line from Eldene Social Club

It's EXACTLY THE SAME as signing the galactico combo of Zidane, Figo, Raul and Ronaldo

We've got quite a tidy record against Poole Town.

15/11/1902: Swindon Town 9-0 Poole Town
31/10/1903: Swindon Town 7-1 Poole Town

Phil Smith hasn't been a disaster, he's the best of a pretty mediocre bunch for the best part of 20 years!

Think this is the latest article anywhere (apologies if its already been posted!).

Randomly was reading an article about him and my sister saw the picture and commented that she knew him and went to school with him - is a Hungerford lad and apparently is a massive Town fan!
