I always get the impression that a sizeable chunk of out of town support comes from Devizes and Calne - its particularly noticeable on evening games when the A361 is just a long stream of lights going that way after the game - about a third turn off at Beckhampton towards Calne, the rest carry on to Devizes. Just on people I know/see at the ground I reckon there are easily 500 plus at home games from Devizes.

Has arriba gone now as well? He'd be the first poster I missed, even if we have had some right old barnys on here.

Every post can be read two ways. Some people take the world of forums far too seriously.

Having lived in the centre of Swindon, a suburb of Swindon, a Town just outside Swindon (Bassett) and a Town quite away from Swindon (Didcot), id say this.
The hardest time Ive had getting motivated to support STFC was when I lived in the Town centre. The problem is you feel trapped by the place. There is enough in the Town to keep you in Swindon, but not enough to make you that happy about living there. To get out can be a bit of a nightmare with the traffic (shit road planning and underinvestment in infrastructure), so often you dont bother.
The reason we get such shit support from Swindon itself is because most Swindonians want escapism and so attach themselves to 'glamorous' Premier League clubs. In the past you could get that by going away with Swindon, but nowadays we mostly play shit clubs in Towns even shitter than Swindon.
The main problem for our support (apart from the matchday prices) is not actually the club itself. Its the consistant failure of the whole Town. Id love to see most of Swindon council fired tommorow, because they are a useless pile of shite.
When I lived outside Swindon, I loved it. All the 19th century decay and the grime, felt like proper football. But dealing with it 24/7 it wears you down. You realise these people honestly dont have £25 to spend on a ticket.
Honestly dont think our attendances will improve until we get the Town centre regenerated, and inject some pride into Swindonians living under 20 minutes walk from the ground.
The communities of Towns outside Swindon have also experienced much less social change and are more affluent. They should be rock solid Town supporters, no real excuse.
