Gotta win this and hope the three above us continue to drop points..

Would have been even more difficult IMO if they had already replaced Smith, but they've only got a caretaker at the moment, who, hopefully won't have any effect on the way they've been playing.

Can't go to the Trust meeting cos I'm working till 1.00.

2.0 to us.  Peacock and Zaboub!!

Wrexham played in the first game I ever saw. My uncle took me to Ashton Gate to watch City vs Wrexham in the FA Cup 3rd round in 1978. Cracking game in which Peter Cormack came off the bench to salvage a draw for City. Wrexham incidentally hammered them 3-0 in the replay !

NMH

Lincoln at home to Shrewsbury. Think Lincoln will win that one.

MK Dongs away at Hartlepool.  Come on Hartlepool!

Realistically we should be 3rd by the end of the day.

If EVERYTHING goes our way we'll be 2nd.

But knowing us?...........................................

Im wokring so wont make the game, i managed to remember my radio adapter for my phone at work today so that will have to do.

3-0 Zabooooooooooooooob x 2 and Cock.

Carey's been given the job til the end of the season...

It'll be another close one, if we win by more than 1 goal it'll be a surprise.

2-1, early and late goals by Lukas J

Wrexham away form is very poor so i think a 3-0 win.

We always lose at Wrexham. So a nice comfortable 2-0 win please!

This is one of them games that points to a comfortable Town home win, but hardly ever turns out to be that way.

I'm going for a 3-1 win,  with the Cock x2 and Roberts scoring the other.

We will concede from a pointless set play btw

im going for 2-1 to us.

0-1

bit optimistic we haven't had a big win for ages so going for 4-1

Fucking glory hunter Ben.

I reckon we'll win easily, 3-0.

Cant get STFC world commentary going at all  :evil:

Wrexham yes - Swindon NO  :twisted:

Another shitty ditty on the way me thinks.

are they commentating in welsh

BBC haven't turned off the Radio Swindon webfeed yet so it works from there.

ffs, this wrexham commentary is dire. why is the swindon commentary so unreliable?

Swindons on now

about time, STFC World is so unreliable but living 100 miles away its the only way I can listen to the games.

oh ffs

FFS 1-0 down  :shock:  :evil:

YEAH!!!!!

yay zabboubbububoub

1-1 the boob!

ZABOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOB !!! Get In!

commontary is still on the bbc site

What the fuck is going on?

1-1

So are you telling me just in switching commentary I've missed two goals?

Fucking STFC World wankers.

Whoa....  interesting start.  Was Zaboub's goal any good?  Is this one worth listening to?  Currently monging out in front of the horse racing after getting in at 8 this morning...  :|

Been a class game so far

Too many Evans and Williams out there today. Bloody welsh inbreds.

Looks like it was that Williams first professional goal, nearly just got a second too

http://www.soccerbase.com/players_details.sd?playerid=43190

still 1-1?

Yep,  a few seconds to half time

Half time now

Morning all ! Hope you are all well ? Gonna try Radio Wiltshire for the 2nd half. Is that the one thats working ?

NMH

has half time been 20 mins? seems to have gone on for ages

Damn it, two good chances.

Is it just me, or does it sound like Shakes is having a good game?

it's dead on here today!

4 mins extra time in the first half

Hence why the delay in second half

All started now thou

good god there's not many online are there? :P



my excuse, i was playing bass and didnt realise it was 3pm until whits txt me :D

We're all behaving ourselves as you are here...

It went on so long that everyone forgot their manners and didn't wish me a good morning ! Ho-hum ! Plus noone told me where I could listen to the dulcit tones of Mr Phil King. Furthermore, noone told me that many of the players from my youth were on the radio. Now though we are into the second half, Phil King has appealed for a penalty and 'the cock' has had a shot saved !

NMH

 :face:

You gonna warch Colts vs Ravens later Coxer.. ?

NMH

If its on this evening, then no - I shall be getting pissed at a wedding  :D

I'll be watching the Ravens v Colts games later and I'll record the Saints v Eagles game.

Will Manning choke again I wonder?

Its on at 1430 MST. Its -18 degs C here so chances of going out are limited !

NMH

I hope not, but history suggests yes !

NMH

So thats 1630 Eastern. Bugger, won't catch it all.

I've grown webbed feet, its been pissing down for days, but thankfully no ice storms have reached here yet!

Back to this game, it sounds to me as if we are going to trip on the banana skin again !

NMH

Franchise losing

Lincoln drawing

Great chance to go second

i had my lunch all planned out, listen to the game watch some darts, i go to the lunch room, and next thing i know im waking up at halftime, i fucking fell asleep, haha.
back to it now.

:ontopic:

Fucking OAP yanks.

 :wink:

Darts game is good

Adams winning 5-4,   first to 6 sets wins

However in 10th set, King is winning 2-0 in legs

Think you are due ice and snow on Mon & Tuesday ! Hope you enjoy as much as we have. Still got 6ft snow drifts outside my house. Its boring after nearly a month of it !

This game is one of the most boring I have listened to !

NMH

Swindon Supermarine 2-0 Oxford City   :D

Swindon Supermarine 3-0 Oxford City

Bored, bored, bored, bored, bored !

NMH

Mike Ingham ? Wasn't he a commentator ?

NMH

if we don't win this it's a fucking farce really, these are the sort of games we should be winning with a relative amount of ease. then, of course,i remember we lack a goalscorer. meh.

Fuck off, cunt  :wink:

 :twak:

ooh penalty

King wins us a penalty !

NMH

Oooooh, pen!

Come on Roberts ......

Yippee !

NMH

Come On!

YAY

Just had to go and out do me didn't you Ging

who won the pen?

come on boys hold on!

Sorry  :oops:

In my defence I didn't see you had done that before I posted it.

It's alright I've had nasty Regal I found on the floor from last night and it's calmed me right down

who won us the penno?

Think it was a handball.

Ifil shot,  and i think their player handballed it

cheers! ive jst annoyed everyone in my uni library by cheering as the goal came up on the internet! GET IN come on hold on to this

Lincoln 1-1 full time

4 minutes of added time

:groan1:

Full tome

YAY

Second in the league

smashing 2-1 that'll do nicely

quality result, comforting to see us back into the top 3 of the league tonight :)

That'll do nicely, thank you very much.

Get in there, E I E I E I O....

Second with a game in hand on those below us.

Happy.

Really need to put a gap between some of the lower teams and us. This would be a great time to put a run together.

 :beers:

I didnt realise how tight mid table was 3 points covering 7th to 14th. We are looking pretty good for at least a play off spot at this point in the season

Stockport in 8th are closer on points to Macclesfield than us.

Just got in. Excellent result. Any news from Sturrock post match?

I listened to the interview but for some reason I can't remember any of it. How strange.

Just the usual......

He said we could have played better, but under the windy conditions, the result is all that matters

No news on the transfer situation, but still is looking to bring 1-2 players in b4 the end of Jan

I thought we played OK, strikers were poor but when we got the ball wide shakes and zaboub were excellent. vincent is impressing me more each game.

i dont know what it was but when pook nearly scored i nearly cried as if it was a goal conceeded, i'd have taken a draw just for him not to get one.

pook scored? Thought it was Zaboooooooooooooob and Roberts (pen)?  :?

it was

Chubbs is just a foooool

I pity the fool

ye im sorry, nearly scored it was meant to say

i'll change it.

I used to play cricket with young Mr Pook. He was shit at cricket too

You're still a fool.

meh, i can live with that

sturrock made me laugh in his interview, said they've been getting shakes to practice his crossing as much as possible, even pulling him out training sessions for it! although i thought he had a good game today.

Good game. Not brilliant, but a win is a win.

We really should have killed it off better. Peacock really should have scored that header just after half time. And Zaaboub should've scored another as well.

not to mention the open goal from 4 yards he missed in the first half

Oh yes, that one as well.

Also loving the new Zaaboub song. Ace  8)

Not a great performance, and I stood there thinking that Wrexham were utter bullocks, pretty much the one shot on goal (which they scored) and their defence was pretty awful. It should have been easier than it was, but we are in this division for a reason after all.

Full of people in the town end today (and most matches) really laying into pook and roberts. Now Pook isn't as good as Timlin, Evans or Weston, but I thought he had a good game today. Did the simple things, tidied it up in the middle and put some challenges in. When Roberts scored all was forgiven by the majority (obviously)

How was it guys ? I have just came back from Uni...I haven't read the post so far...Hope we won !!!

do share.

To the tune of 'Baby give it up'

I'm sure you can guess the words  :D

yes, please do.

Great result today.

Sturrock has equalled the amount of wins Dennis Wise achieved in more games than P.S. has taken charge of (although they've lost the same amount)

Obviously, grinding out results is what's going to get us out of this division.

 :beers:

Na na na na na na na na naa,
Soffiene Zaaboub,
Sofi Boub,
Soffiene Zaaboub.
(repeat)

Or something like that

:shock:

http://www.swindontownfc.co.uk/javaImages/68/12/0,,10341~3084904,00.jpg

I take it this must be from when he mullered that bloke with the header from behind.

Looks like he's done a couple of rounds with Mike Tyson!

Pook was absolutely shite...with Roberts not far behind.

The miss by Pook was absolutely shocking.

Zaaaaaaaaabbbbooooobbbb was MOM with Shakes (yes Shakes) not far behind.

Shakes actually went past their full back a number of times , and put decent crosses in from the byline, and had a shot off the line just after the pen.

The sooner Pook gets dropped the better. Even Jerel Ifil has got a similar goal scoring record as Pook.  :)

I'll agree that Shakes had a good game.

But the rest of that is bollocks............

pook should have hit the target but what about shakes breakthrough in the second half?or his woefull first touches?shakes did ok, but so did pook.
not one great the other shit.thats so wrong

to be fair, Shakes has played well the last three games now, which to me anyway indicates that its a bit more than luck. Sturrock has said Ricky is working alot on his crossing and I think it shows.

Pook should have hit the target, but to be fair to him it wasnt his strongest foot.

Rickys one, I was right behind. I'm not sure and I dont think he was sure whether he crossed it or had a shot...if it had been an inch either way it would have been a goal or a cross to Lukas for a tap in....

i'm not knocking shakes as he has improved although his touch is still poor, today his workrate compensated for it.hope he carries on and gets better.by getting lucky i was refering to the first goal after his abysmal touches but he kiept fighting in his defence which led to the goal

i can't really comment on shakes today but it seems as though he's working on the strengths first and foremost, he'll never be a great crosser and his first touch will only ever improve slightly.

what's most important is that he utilises the positive parts of his game, his pace and ability to take players on - the more he does that, the more often he'll get into good positions to cross or square the ball and the less wasteful he will seem.

if he only puts in one or two crosses in a game and they're both poor, it's disappointing whereas if he puts in half a dozen then there's likely to be one or two better balls in amongst those and chances are created.

E I E I E I O up the football.....]


You doubters are all cunts and I am very drunk... 8)

I'd mostly agree with that, Shakes biggest failing is falling into the centre of the field to often. When play is going up the left or deep in our own half Shakes seems to drift in to far thus leaving no 'out' ball to the right flank. To me a winger should hug the touchline, then his pace and ability to take on thier full backs can be used to it's full effect, also allowing the strikers to go through the middle not come wide to make up for Shake's absence.

It looks like dance training gives great effects to the form of Shakes !!!  :wink:

Oooooo, myself and Richie boy got it right for a change.

I don't think i filled it in on the prediction league though :doh:

Village you escaped the Merlin in one piece then?

Yes, i am still a piece

Why are you 'hiding'?

I'm not, I'm sat at my desk plain as day  :D

Booooooooooooooob is my hero,once again he was ACE. What a signing.
Peacock did well, Weston was good, shakes was very good, Ifil did'nt have a very good game but I still think he's quality.
3 points off that top spot, we can most definately do it if we keep playing the way we are at the moment. Yesterdays over all performance was good, not as good as it could of been but given the conditions I think they did very well. Played some brilliant football.

Highlights now up

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xe6vTS0LAUQ

The video you have requested is not available.

If you have recently uploaded this video, you may need to wait a few minutes for the video to process. that is what is says.

Just keep trying. It'll be there soon. Trust me  8)

try in a min. watching an OC Episode on youtube.

'Tis working now!

Ok who came up with the Zaaboub song? Its very camp IMO opinion however it is marginally better than that stupid ONION BAJI song

The Zaaboub song is ace. FACT!

nice one lennon 55.

Very camp and blatantly stolen from Palace, but something different. Anything is better than ONIONBAJI  :D

very true.

Don't know what you're on about  :--

Jobi McAnuff, McAnuff, Joooooobi McAnuff sounds a lot better than the Zaaboub one, but points for trying.

I had a bit of a think today (I know, it hurt) and found that 'Peter Brezovan' fits much better than 'Sofiane Zaaboub' to the McAnuff song.

Sing it in your head, go on, it's ace.

Plus it beats all the shit Brezovan songs we've got at the moment. I can imagine it echoing round the Townend now when (if) Brezovan makes his comeback.

i sang the peter brezovan version out loud and can confirm that it sounds ace!
