Title: U Turns Post by: Oaksey Moonraker on Friday, October 22, 2010, 21:18:06 After Wayne Rooney's U Turn to sign a new contract at Man Utd, which Swindon players or managers in the past or present who maybe thought the grass was greener elsewhere do you wish had made a U turn and returned to Swindon. Probably not Joey Beauchamp though!

Title: Re: U Turns Post by: Arriba on Saturday, October 23, 2010, 09:00:21 some of those mentioned went onto better things.aint this thread about those who thought the grass was greener elsewhere, but turned out not to be?
Title: Re: U Turns Post by: DV on Saturday, October 23, 2010, 09:09:07 Yet you suggested Parkin? He moved onto a better team in a higher division?
Tommy M££ney. Title: Re: U Turns Post by: Arriba on Saturday, October 23, 2010, 09:12:19 yes but it didn't work out for him did it? things were never the same for him again-grass not greener
Title: Re: U Turns Post by: DV on Saturday, October 23, 2010, 09:19:10 That was injuries though and had nothing to do with the club he was at.
He could have stayed here and had the same injuries. Title: Re: U Turns Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Saturday, October 23, 2010, 09:29:33 Mooney is the first one that should spring to anyones mind on this list. He even admitted it was a huge mistake going to the scum.

Title: Re: U Turns Post by: Oaksey Moonraker on Saturday, October 23, 2010, 12:30:46 Mooney would be a good example, he was never the same again and we didn't replace him adequately. Kingy's fall out with Darius Henderson's agent resulting in us signing the troubled Christian Roberts.
Jimmy Quinn left Swindon at the wrong time in 1988 as he didn't do much at Leicester and Bradford until Macari took him to West Ham whereas we pushed on and Duncan Shearer scored a shed load of goals for us. Quinny helped West Ham get promoted but they sold him straight away. |
