I'm liking the fact the past few games has given us something to play for until the season's end. All depends on Peterborough and the results of their games in hand, but in the meantime lets do it!!!

I think STFC really need to thank Mr and Mrs Thompson. Are there any more or just the 2. As you all know I'm a miserable old fucker but Louis's goal yesterday and the celebrations from both Thompsons made me quite proud. You treasure little moments like that. Two lads who've come up through the ranks, have fantastic attitudes, give 100% and show what playing for Town means for them. I hope they both go on to have great careers whether its with Town or better. If Nile had the family they have he'd be back in the Prem.
It was also great to see Storey score one and have a bloody good game. He did well to hold his man off and make the pass to Byrne. Waldon coming on was a bonus.
It means a little bit more to me when our own come through.

Was at wembley today and even though Peterborough won 3-1 they don't look a good side. In fact chesterfield were the better team first half and were 2-0 down!
I don't think posh are that good so if we keep winning, who knows!

Watched it on TV Chesterfield undone with 3 set pieces and at 2 nil down were the better team by far. Unlucky not to have a pen after 3 mins too Lets hope they continue to fall apart and dont pick up as a result of today |

Let's not forget Connor Walden either. OK, he's not the finished article - but he's a Pinehurst boy and now wearing the shirt. When was the last time we had three local lads on the pitch? It's almost a reversal of the trend for years where everything's being getting less local and more global. Reg must be loving this. Fuck it. Let's aim for a team of Wiltshiremen. It's within our grasp, surely.

Although the Thompsons are a product of the STFC academy Nathan was born in Chester and Louis in Dover so hardly local lads |

Here's something that's been puzzling me- if Louis is playing for Wales U21 then I'm presuming that Nathan is eligible too- and if so, why isn't it ever mentioned? |

Knew that about the Twins. But they're naturalised Swindonians, surely. The celebrations yesterday proved that.

I know this doesn't mean a lot...but just spent the afternoon with (Liverpool supporting) friends watching the 4-0 vs Spurs. And it was a great game, enjoyed watching it. But also couldn't shake the feeling that it wasn't a patch on yesterday. #Prem #Takeitorleaveit #Untilwegetthere |

That's cos you have nothing invested in Liverpool v Spurs.
Yesterday wasn't a great game but it was dramatic and both sides wanted to win.
Sheffield Utd looked better than us overall, but we did them at the death and theres nothing quite like beating the odds in the last minute.
Ps get some early money on Sheffield Utd winning L1 next year

Thing I've always wondered. Does your average supporter of a successful Premier League get more out of winning a game that takes them into the Champions league/wins the league than you or I do getting promoted?
I only know one real season ticket holder, a Chelsea fan as it happens, and one since the shit days. He said not really, once the novelty value/novelty of a better standard of football wears off at least. And on top of that you've got the layer of shite that comes with the Premier League. Difficulty getting tickets, everything costs more, etc, etc.
There is a lot to be said about being able to rock up at 2:59, buy a ticket and watch your team.
