As a Swindon fan, got no idea what's happened to your pigs. And it's spelt "derbies". Peasant.

Move back to Elm park.

Youve missed the boat on derbies. No one will ever hate you now.

I liked Elm Park, a bit like Boothferry Park.

Also Ayresome Park was cool, as was Roker Park.

All those old grounds consigned to history. :-))(

and all end in Park! That was when grounds had identities, you could tell from looking at a picture straight away whose it was.

Quite right Bedford.

I never made it to the old County Ground at Northampton, but my mates tell me it was a really wierd ground.

People on deck chairs and stuff.

I saw Swindon play there twice. In 84 just after Macari took over.

Alan Mayes missed a penalty in the 2nd minute and it all went downhill from there, we lost 4-0. There were some unfit players that day.

And 86 when we won 1-0 in the promotion season, Kenny Allen made a fabulous save to tip a shot over the bar, funny how you remember things like that.

There were lots of Swindon fans there that day, I was sat in some sort of temporary enclosure next to where they were stood on the terracing as my Dad had got tickets through his work as he worked for the local paper at that time. In 84 I sat in the old main stand which burnt down shortly after.

I suppose you'll have your derby with Poxford but it aint the same nowadays, not in the lower leagues.
