Hey another stupid question from Poland ! Do you have a good contact with players ? I mean if you can for example watching their trainings , they give autographs , you can talk with them...What about press conferentions ? Do you have an opportunity to talk with players ? Do you have meetings with players , manager , chairman ? Ok... sorry for my English mistakes... I'll improve it with BBC

Seen as Swindon is a rather small town, you do generally bump into the players every now and again and most of them will usually stop for a chat or something.
They also are often seen in the apartments (night club) on saturday nights.
but that is all 'bumping into them' rather than arranged meetings.
We do have a fans forum on Thursday, some players might be there, but the manager will be...so should get to talk to him.
I believe you can go watch training, but I work full time so dont get the chance.

the impression i've always got is that footballers in this country nowadays are not to be spoken to by fans.
it's all a bit alien. i never talk to the players because i find it strange.

at swindon they are not stars, however some act like they are.
Some however, act very normal and level headed. Sam Parkin was always good for a chat, he never thought he was a 'star' despite being our best player by miles

The diffrent way in Tarant  I always (or almost always) participate in trainings...Everybody can  . I am for example the main person who film home games  . Of course it's not BBC or Sky Sport

Most of the players start off at the spot then move down to the apartments, Most of them act like prima donnas. Ive heard many of stories of when Fallon was here he would saunter around with his head in the air. Monkhouse, Brown, Fola and Peacock were quite nice though when we saw them. Jutkiewicz, Holgate, and Wells were ace in Ibiza!

The Spot looks well stuck up. Went past it with Ash a few weeks back.
