I have always found the last 5 minutes of Town games difficult to watch even if we are 2 goals up it always makes me nervous.
The number of games in the past that we have thrown away with 10 mins left on the clock, admittedly we have probably won almost as many games in the last 10 mins of games.
Being a Swindon supporter is always hard, a real roller coaster ride with some fantastic highs mixed in with some appalling lows.
In my 36 odd years of following Swindon I have seen
the good - 2 Championships, 4 promotions, 2 League Cup semi finals, 3 trips to Wembley (will be 4)
the bad - 6 relegation seasons, 1 demotion
the ugly - 2 administrations
But I still fucking love it, each new high makes up for a low, this season is turning into a real high, long may it continue.

If we're as good as we think we are we'll win this game and be top of the league by next Wednesday. I can't believe Southend are up there as they are shit. Haven't seen Crawley so I dont know if they are miles better than Southend or not.

Could really do with Flint today, Barnett will be a major threat tonight and with the pace of new signings Watt and Clarke attacking wise they are a huge threat.
Really hope Benson scores tonight, deserved a goal for his recent performances. Would like to see Cox play aswell, hes had 2 weeks now to get up to Paolo fitness and could push to start if hes done well in training.

Still can't believe that some people are still doubting this side - we have the best team for many a long year, the best manager too. Of course, we are not going to win every single game (I think), but why are people still doubters.
The club has been changed inside out, PdC has altered the very fabric of STFC
That's a bit of an extravagant claim...the reality is that di Canio has halted the slide, and restored a bit of pride. This, of course, is a worthy thing as it needed doing. About 2 years ago we were turning over Leeds 3-0, with a youngish side under a respected and experienced manager, who seemed to be putting in some decent building blocks for the future. This proved a chimera, of which we've had a few down the years. Going to take a bit more before your conclusion can be reached. |

36 or so years for me too JJ and I share your sentiments completely, still hate the last 5 minutes unless we are at least 3 up, still expect the worst even when things are going well! |

Crawley are a lot better than Southend. I'm still expecting a win tonight though. |

The game won't go ahead. The cunt will get stuck in the tunnel and the players won't be able to get on the pitch.

Likewise. Incredibly nervous.
Steve Evans clearly bleaches his hair looking at those pictures. Surely there comes a point when you stop trying to polish the turd.
