Another good move by the club, be interesting to see the remainder. Would hope once the new ground gets moving we'll have a few statues dotted around.

I've got nothing against any of them and I think they really are true STFC legends, but: Swindon Town FC will present the first three inductees, legends Don Rogers, John Trollope and Paul Bodin, at the County Ground this Saturday.......
The committee, formed in October this year, was made up of ex-players Rogers, Trollope and Bodin....... Made I laugh......  I've seen Bodin and Trollope play but I never had the good fortune to see Rogers play. However, I used to be a manager of a local boys team and he was our president so I met him quite a few times. He has always had a lot of time for local football and is a true gent and legend. And what can you say about Trollope? What would you give for club loyalty like that these days? Bodin "The Rat" deserves legend status for that penalty alone.......

Who else would be stone-wallers for our hall of fame? Surprised Harold Flemming wasn't in the first inductees. Him, Shaun Taylor and Mike Summerbee next for me.

Just noticed that these days he is chief scout for the Liverpool Acedemy.

Full agree DRS. Hope they do something to recognise Stan Harland in the future, as the only Town captain to capture a major trophy.

Kenny Stroud. Classiest defender I've seen. And he scored some great goals too.

Bodin seems a strange choice over Fleming. Also strange they've seemingly limited it to players, bit unfair on Sam Allen who surely deserves the honour more than most and arguably should have been first on the list.

They did these three first as they're on the committee, can't really have two and not the other, respect.
