From the station at Colchester
To the cells of Warrington
From the services at Leicester
To the slums of Northampton
We travel over England
And one day Europe too
Cos we all follow the Swindon
We're the famous Town End crew.

Peter Noble was one of my heroes when I first started supporting the Town.

Definitely join in the birthday greetings. What a header of the ball! I reckon STFC missed him almost more than Don Rogers when he left.

I'm a bit too young (something I never thought Id type on this forum) to remember Noble as a Swindon player. However, I do remember him playing forBurnley.

I love watching Cholmondly-Warner style football footage.
That third goal was brilliant.

Remember him for two things :
1) The third goal against Burnley in extra time in the League Cup Semi Final replay at The Hawthorns - we all knew that when that went in we were off to Wembley . He just stood there and grinned !
2) Used to go and sit in the old North Stand and watch the players train during school holidays when I was a kid - he would always be sat in the dugout at the end of training signing autographs and chatting to the kids watching,always had time for us.
A top player for the Town and a top bloke
Happy Birthday Peter
