and the only other was the last game of the season when we had 14,731 against Walsall and they had the bank that day.
And both teams had everything riding on that game. The "problem" we have is promotion is pretty much done and dusted, I wonder if casual fans will save it for when we hopefully get the title after the Vale game. I reckon every one of us on this forum would love to be there the day we get promoted. Though I reckon it'll be Aldershot and so I'll miss it  |

Shouldn't believe everything you read in the programme....Harold Fleming also refused to play on Sundays or other religious festival days like Good Friday and Chritmas Day.
Swindon didn't ever play on a Sunday when Harold Fleming played |

Luckily for me I will and I hope it won't drag on till Gillingham or god forbid Bradford cos I won't. |

Now I don't know who to believe The point stands...Fleming was a religious man, and didn't play if a game fell on a significant Christian day. For example in 1911, Harold missed out on the win at Stoke on CHristmas Day, but played and scored in the return Boxing Day fixture. |

Akinfenwa- he eats what he wants
