Ive supported Town since the old 92/93 Season, through Malpas and Wilson and from Gorman to Sturrock. However, out of all the games Ive been to, tmy most vivid was the game at Rovers (Goodnight Irene, you bitch  ). The one where a lot of innocent Town fans gt fooked over at the Inn on the Green. That was a bad day. BUT, my favourite game was my first ever Town match. It was when we played the Hammers at Upton Park when we were in the Premiership. We drew 0-0, and I think it was our second point of that season. |

Always remember my first game. Ross McLaren scored the winner in extra-time.
Didn't get to many games during the Prem due to being at uni. That 2-2 with United was a good one. and the normal beating of Oxford at the County Ground,etc. I wasn't even at the Peterborough game, I was playing and travelling back from the match when Invincibile scored. I think I lost it for a bit in the car, I had three very white passengers in the car.
The bad ones stand out too. Cheltenham away. Stevenage. Standing on the bank one cold January and being told "there was no chance of the game being called off" only for the game to get called off 10 mins into the second half.

I don't know about all time favourite/most memorable match, but as an away game beating Stoke 2-1 on the 1st game at the Britannia. 1-0 down, Scott Leitch (awesome player) acrobatically clearing a certain Stoke goal off the line at 1-0. Then us scoring 2 in a minute late on to win it. Fantastic day!
There are also the obvious games, such as the play off finals & turbo (Steve Robinson) getting two at our last visit to the Manor.

Chesterfield away '95/'96 season when we clinched the Championship. I lived in Sheffield at the time so although I didn't see many games during this season this was one I could get to. Took a few non-swindon supporting uni mates to that one

Mine will always be the League Cup Quarter-Final Replay in December 1979 when we beat the Arse 4-3 AET.
It was my 16th birthday, and for that reason tops anything else for me.
Ironically we drew 2-2 away to Liverpool in the Premier League season on my 30th, although this was slightly tainted by the fact that we should have won

Tranmere play-off game away (can't remember the score on the night)
3-2 Trannies (5-4 on aggregate) I think for the amazing game and atmosphere, combined with the reaction of the Tranmere fans afterwards, that is possibly my most memorable game as well. Also right up there is Sunderland (H) 3-1 AET in the Milk Cup in 1985 which also, spookily enough led to a 5-4 aggregate victory  One of the great nights. |
