Title: Swindon Record Holders...
Post by: janaage on Tuesday, February 22, 2005, 15:15:42
..since last 0-0.  Mail below rec'd from a mate this morning, fucking fascinating!!

"Yep, it's true, we've gone more games without a 0-0 draw than any other team in Premiership, Championship, League 1, League 2 or Conference. A quite remarkable 65 games since neither team scored whilst playing against Swindon, well at least you can't say we're a boring side ! It's just unfortunate that half the time we're letting them in rather than scoring them !
Crewe have gone 57, other than that there's a couple of teams around 30 games since a 0-0, but majority are less than 10 games since their last."

A fair few I think you will find.

I think we've had about 1 draw in 120 matches???  Something like that anyway.

65 matches in all comps was the last time we drew 0-0, against Blackpool.  

Could history repeat itself against Vale tomorrow???

I did a bit of research on this a while back, but lost the results but I do recall games v Bormuff, were, if not the top, near top of the list of historical 0-0 draws with 8 down the years.

 This included the highly unusual double 0-0 in 01-02......

  Got to have another sometime soon.....just can't imagine us keeping a clean sheet.

That was the game.......made an early start to get there after festivities in Cambridgeshire......got held up in traffic on M25, and arrived at 3 mins to 3 to find the TE shut.......not happy about that.

 Daisy hit the post......shame
