Title: Football League Show Post by: swindonbob on Sunday, October 18, 2009, 15:21:40 SORRY IF THIS HAS ALREADY BEEN MENTIONED!
But anyone see this last night? It had a good feature on some Swindon superfan who travels from Northampton every day and hasnt missed a game for a stupid number of years. He gets to meet DW before and after the match, and DW doesnt really know how to react when he starts laying into the performance! Definately worth checking out on the iPlayer...though it would have been nice to see a bit more of Dannys reaction to this bloke! Title: Re: Football League Show Post by: Batch on Sunday, October 18, 2009, 16:03:23 Mad I larf when he said to DW that it was atrocious from start to finish. Also his pre-match advice was 'keep it tight in the last 10 :)'.
Apparently not missed a game since 1981(?) and started to support Swindon at random because he knew someone who lived near here and also he liked railways (and presumably Crewe was a bit far away).

That was ace. The man said it how it was. I really don't know how you can organise your life not to miss a Town match for 28 years. I know it is heroic but am I alone in thinking it is just a lot sad?

Mind you our Mexican-Tongan fan used to do a fair bit, what was it 14,000 miles per year? But i don't think he's been doing that since 1981.
Title: Re: Football League Show Post by: sonicyouth on Monday, October 19, 2009, 19:53:19 danny's reaction (or lack thereof!) is classic, i was waiting for him to rock on his heels and whistle a tune
