...almost.
I make it 64 points from 45 games, with just over half of those games spent clearing up after Malpas.
Did we ever find out why Hartlepool sacked him?

Yes, he wanted to move to a big club.

I love him - his voice relaxs me - I noticed this as I listened to an interview with him on the radio in the dentist

In a play-off spot at Christmas and the form team in the League. Nuff said

Wilson has done a steady job...I suppose the sort of thing you might have hoped for from a manager of his experience.
He has got us to the level we should be, namely top ten L1 getting through to 3rd round of FA Cup.
Now comes the hard part, driving this on, without causing a financial crisis.

if you think also of all the dead wood he got rid of in the summer and then had to re build the team and still get us to where we are.
few more signings and i think we could compete for the top two spaces. we've proven to be a decent top 10 team so far and i believe we could easily break into the top two next season if we don't make it through the playoffs at the first attempt.

Hats off to him. He's not only dessembled a shite squad, he's build an excellent one without breaking the bank. He's instilled a belief not seen in a swindon team for years, and yet he still seems far from happy, which says a lot about what he wants to achieve.
More of the same next year Danny please, top work in 2009.
I've not enjoyed going to football for many years.

It was due to them not finishing high enough in the league, think they were expecting top 6 or promotion and he only managed 7th or something. Hopefully they feel really stupid with us being higher than them in the league now. |

If that's true then their board must be in cloud cuckoo land as they struggle to get crowds of 4-5,000 and they've mostly been in Div 4. More likely Chris Turner, who came back as 'Director of Football', wanted his old job back. |

For a change, a 100% agree with you Reg. Delighted in our current league position and if we're there or thereabouts at the end of the season, I'll be more than happy. |

Surely that's a bit of a problem being a football journo? |

Are you not thinking of Brighton and Dean Wilkins? I thought Wilson left and wasnt sacked? |
