' FIVE OF THE BEST' - Hard Men
           


  THIS week, the Adver casts an eye over Town’s hardest players from down the years - the men who entered every tackle with a brazen insanity and collected more cards than Christmas.

Shoddy work as ever, in number 5 about Steve McMahon, it says he guided the town to the championship in 96 with the record 102 points.

No Adver, that was 86 with Lou in charge, McMahon may have won the title but got 92 points.

Can't anyone there do a bit of decent research before writing these things...

PS What a crap list!

Shaun Taylor no 2 hardman!! You've got to be kidding?

he always stuck his head in where it hurt, that doesn't make him a hard man though. The list is total rubbish.

Naff stuff from the adver as always.

Random boring fact I was the first person in Swindon to get Lee Collins signature.

Fitzroy Simpson was a bit of a nutter.

The whole list was made up of players 1992 and beyond, apart from Dave McKay.

Lee Collins was just shit.

I would have had Jonathan Douglas as an honourable mention. But no Ray McHale or Chris Kamara? Rubbish.
