Title: Amazing Fans Post by: fatbury on Wednesday, February 21, 2007, 13:33:25 Amazing support for Swindon last night
1431 Swindon Fans and only 1208 Barnet fans last night I can't ever remember us having more away fans at a match than the home fans had Is this the ONLY time it's ever happened? Well done to all concerned! :beers: Title: Amazing Fans Post by: Simon Pieman on Wednesday, February 21, 2007, 13:39:08 I knew it was a good idea to phone everyone in the Barnet phone book and warn them about the bomb in the ground
Title: Amazing Fans Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Wednesday, February 21, 2007, 13:42:16 I think we might have outnumbered the home fans when we played Aldershot in 85/86 season.
Title: Amazing Fans Post by: Sade on Wednesday, February 21, 2007, 13:45:26 Thats brilliant, just a shame they did'nt get rewarded with atleast a decent performance.
Title: Amazing Fans Post by: Simon Pieman on Wednesday, February 21, 2007, 13:47:41 Sure pisses on the "protestors will harm the team" bonfire

SHAUN TAYLOR" I think we might have outnumbered the home fans when we played Aldershot in 85/86 season. yes there was at least 2,500 town fans in a crowd of 3,700 that evening, but it dont happen very often, a great achievement for the fans. Title: Amazing Fans Post by: Arriba on Wednesday, February 21, 2007, 14:23:21 our fans are amazingly fickle too
Title: Amazing Fans Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Wednesday, February 21, 2007, 16:55:19 Quote from: "arriba" our fans are amazingly fickle too No more so than any other club's fans. I wouldn't actually describe us as fickle at all. In what way are we fickle? Explain yourself 8) Title: Amazing Fans Post by: sonic youth on Wednesday, February 21, 2007, 16:56:23 Quote from: "arriba" our fans are amazingly fickle too ...or just opinionated. Title: Amazing Fans Post by: Spud on Wednesday, February 21, 2007, 17:06:06 Quote from: "arriba" our fans are amazingly fickle too How dare we moan about last nights game after some of us used a days holiday to watch that crap. :roll: Title: Amazing Fans Post by: blinkpip on Wednesday, February 21, 2007, 17:06:30 Some of our fans were racist last night.
Title: Amazing Fans Post by: red macca on Wednesday, February 21, 2007, 17:07:20 Quote from: "arriba" our fans are amazingly fickle too Yes very fickle.in my time as a swindon fan we have been demoted from the top league then when we reach it we get relegated since then we have sold any assett we have had and apart from two seasons have had to deal with less than average bullshit .So exuse me for being fickle but i thing our fans have a right to be fickle,fuming pissed off or whatever they want to be to be honest Title: Amazing Fans Post by: Piemonte on Wednesday, February 21, 2007, 17:07:42 Quote from: "blinkpip" Some of our fans were racist last night.

Title: Amazing Fans Post by: DV on Wednesday, February 21, 2007, 17:24:23 there was nothing 'unluckly' about not winning saturday, we werent good enough. Games dont last 30 minutes.
Title: Amazing Fans Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Wednesday, February 21, 2007, 17:25:13 I don't think it's possible to be too critical of that pile of old tripe we had to endure last night!
As far as I'm concerned if play fantastically well I will be the first to say 'well done'. Likewise, if they play like a bunch twats I will slate them. That is not fickle as far as I am concerned. I have always thought this club has bloody good, loyal support, all things considered. Title: Amazing Fans Post by: Piemonte on Wednesday, February 21, 2007, 17:26:19 We wernt unlucky on saturday, we didnt finish our chances. It was poor finishing not luck.
We still deserved to win the game though as we were that dominant in the 1st half. Title: Amazing Fans Post by: Arriba on Wednesday, February 21, 2007, 17:26:49 it wasn't critism of our fans,just an observation.

If we end up in the play offs we WILL lose. FACT! Like teh avatar btw - class 8) Title: Amazing Fans Post by: Spud on Wednesday, February 21, 2007, 17:27:10 Quote from: "OOH!

If they play well or even put up some fight and lose i'll be willing to take defeat on the chin but losing without any sort of battle just wont do. Title: Amazing Fans Post by: Spencer_White on Wednesday, February 21, 2007, 18:54:16 Theres not many fans who have had their loyalties tested as much as we have in the last 10 years.
That taken into account were not too bad. Title: Amazing Fans Post by: Simon Pieman on Wednesday, February 21, 2007, 18:55:26 I think the team's fickle. Sometimes they don't want to turn up and play....and people pay good money for that shite.
Title: Amazing Fans Post by: reeves4england on Thursday, February 22, 2007, 15:14:22 I'm quite glad I couldn't go now!!!
I think it is great to see we were so well supported, and even though the home attendance was laughable it says a lot that we outnumbered them. As far slagging off players, being fickle etc, i think it boils down to praise the good and slate the bad. Sometimes perhaps people take it too far one way or another and come across as being fickle Title: Amazing Fans Post by: millom red on Friday, February 23, 2007, 04:14:34 Quote from: "simon pieman" I think the team's fickle.
