i liked what he said before the game, something about sponsored grounds changing names every few years but "old trafford will always be old trafford, and the county ground will always be the county ground".
Love him

The guy has so much respect from fans, yes he saved the club but he also seems to know what he is talking about as well. Was quite emotional when he was goiong through his rallying cry at the beginning saying Don Rogers is MR SWINDON TOWN and that SWINDON TOWN FC IS YOUR CLUB not mine, we are just here for the ride...

There was a nice touch in your 442 piece, Gazza, about the fans' favourite being Chairman Andrew Fitton. Well put. |

Well clearly I missed all this but I would like to point out that at 2.55 there were no pies left. Booooo. And also there was a queue of about 100 people after the game either buying ST's or buying QPR tickets.

Great idea. The result can't have done any harm either.

Thanks. The guy deserves all the credit in the world. What he has done to our club in the space of 6-9 months is simply fantastic. Today for the first time at a game I had goosebumps looking forward to "a new era" |

Wouldn't go as far as saying the food was lush - but was definitely a hell of a lot better than it used to be!

Food was ok and the staff looked a bit happier etc and all in all better than last year. Food is never going to be fine cuisine at a football ground but a hell of an improvement.

The balloons had 2 S/T's attached to them. I was in the DR and heard AF fine, I suspect he was using a different PA System as it seemed to be echoing around the ground unlike the usual PA System. Far play to him, it is nice to hear a stfc chairman talking honestly knowing you can beleive what he is saying to you - can anyone remember that ever happening here ?, it was a shame that DR had his little speech cut by the applause of the players coming on the pitch though before the game. It was also nice to hear Cox being interviewed after the game on the pitch which I thought was different. 1 last thing.....Simon Cox's goal celebration - was that the Cox(ed) rowing rather than the Cox(less) rowing  |

I thought that it was the celebration for McGovern's goal.
