I think we've been a but lucky with media coverage of this nightmare. Seems to have thankfully passed under the radar a bit this weekend.

Is Swindon losing to Aldershot more embarrassing than League 1 Charlton drawing at home to 8th tier Cray Valley PM?
If Charlton win - then no. They’ll still be in the cup & might be financially better for having the replay (assuming it’s on TV) …I mean who is to say they didn’t fix the draw purely for the extra finances. |

A missile rather than a bullet dodged.
I did feel a defeat was on the cards simply because it was home to non league. So gave it a miss. Also, im at Colchester tomorrow night.
I didnt expect that disaster though. My phone bleeped all fxxxxg night and the next day with piss takes.

A little odd that the pub wasn’t named. My initial thought was the county ground but would have expected bouncers on the door.
They were lucky I decided to stay at home  |

In a couple of years I hope we can look back on the game vs Aldershot and say it was pivotal in our turning point in our promotion season.
Pushing us onto bigger better things with a new wealthy owner funding our push to the Premier League with masses of funding and a rebuilt County Ground to boot.
"You got to have a dream, If you don't have a dream, How you gonna have a dream come true?"
I would say that Saturday was THE lowest point I have had in nearly 50 years of following Swindon, kicks the 5-0 loss at MKD under Sheridactyl into touch.

Saturday was/is a double edged sword. If the players were, indeed, trying their best and still got butt fucked then God help us. If they downed collective tools on purpose they’re a bunch of cunts. |

Cant argue with that, tonight will be a big test of character and professional pride for them. |

A very important game. Not so much winning or losing it but attitude, character and commitment
