Title: Swindon-Rovers Match Day Thread Post by: herthab on Saturday, December 16, 2006, 06:09:12 It's Saturday! Back to the Football!
If we play like we did last week against Walsall, we're gonna win easy! However...... Being consistant is not something we're very good at. However..... We've won the majority of our games this season whilst not looking that impressive. However....... Fuck it. 3.1 win to us!!! Title: Swindon-Rovers Match Day Thread Post by: herthab on Saturday, December 16, 2006, 07:08:16 Changed my mind.
3.0 to us. Title: Swindon-Rovers Match Day Thread Post by: herthab on Saturday, December 16, 2006, 07:09:21 Weston will finally score!!

Title: Swindon-Rovers Match Day Thread Post by: Rich Pullen on Saturday, December 16, 2006, 11:09:11 Morning folks. I think it'll be a draw today. I'd like to think ex-City boys Roberts and Brown are going to be well up for this one.

You should use some of your Leprechaun powers to make sure we win. If you don't I'll kidnap you and steal your gold. Title: Swindon-Rovers Match Day Thread Post by: cavpete on Saturday, December 16, 2006, 11:23:58 Quote from: "sonic youth" 2-1 rovers i was thinking of that score line.

Title: Swindon-Rovers Match Day Thread Post by: pumbaa on Saturday, December 16, 2006, 14:18:53 Rovers are in a purple patch of form. Tough game. I reckon it'll be 1-1, and hopefully an entertaining game, for once.
Title: Swindon-Rovers Match Day Thread Post by: Rich Pullen on Saturday, December 16, 2006, 14:32:10 I can't believe it's over 6 years since Rovers last came to Town. We were shit and lost 3-1 that day (Walters played for Gas). Luckily it was the Gas that went down.

MK vs. Wycombe was never going to be a dull match - 2-1 Dongs.

We've just got to focus of breaking away from the Play-Off zone. Indeed! I'd love it if we won the division, but so long as we finish in the top three and secure auto promo, thats good enough for me. Lots of football to be played yet though. And by the way, does drinking tea from a large orange mug constitute support for the Orange Revolution, despite the fact the board can't see it.

Title: Swindon-Rovers Match Day Thread Post by: Rich Pullen on Saturday, December 16, 2006, 16:00:37 It's going to be a tight second half... We need to get a 3rd early in the 2nd half ideally (obviously) - Rovers, I expect, will come out of the blocks quickly.

I walked down to the merlin at 10 and about 100 chavs outside the merlin there with the OB cordoning them off...
Title: Swindon-Rovers Match Day Thread Post by: Scot Munroe on Saturday, December 16, 2006, 19:52:59 I really enjoyed today game. It was a bit frantic. Timlin was MOM in my opinion. Steve Phillips goalkeeping top just looks like my Hi-vis jacket. I enjoyed my new Orange hat in which Andy aka Fred Elliot took a pic during the first half of the game.

Haha ... well, in this case, I'm not surprised. If they'd done nothing they would have probably invited a fine, so they're just trying to reduce that by claiming they're doing something. As always in these cases sod all will happen. I remember Swansea doing the same about three or four years ago and sod all happened then. But hey, they can investigate. They'll probably all sit down with a cup of coffee on Monday, put the video on in the boardroom, and slow-mo the bit where someone gets whacked over the head with a flying chair. They won't stop laughing for hours. |
