Be interesting to see how Luggy is greeted back, particularly after the massive snub he gave us last year.
Be a really good test of the strength of our defence, against a very direct side.

He shouldn't have sent out a youth team and it would have been nice if he'd been there but to be fair wasn't that pretty soon after it all came out about his health problems?

He deserves a decent reception,after all he did get us out of the horrid basement division,as for fielding a youth side last time,who can really blame him when the start of the season was a week or so away.
I hope he gets a good reception.

Apparently Luggy has promised to send a full strength team as a "kiss and make up" jesture to Swindon.
I think we could do well, but I also think we could do shit, either way I cant get there.
Would have loved to have gone but funds not allowing me, hope we play well with some style against a good team.
I am going for a 0-0 draw with 4,234 fans there.

I think attendance will be lower than that.

The weather is pretty shit here but I was hoping because of it being a first team game for the Muff that they will bring a few hundred up, ah well, could be very wrong

I hope we stuff them because of last pre-season's game. Lost a bit of respect for Luggy after he didn't show up at all.

They won't send a youth team this year - they'd be scared we'd poach their best ones by half time!

Personally I've still got love for Sturrock. That bloke knows his football.

He did a job for us, and left us in a better state than when he arrived. He also had to work in the loony days of Diamandis/Mr Whippy/Best Holdings....he was always going to bale out of that for a decent offer.

Fuck him. Lost most of the respect I had for him, but am thankful he got us promoted.
