Expect to see the back of the Stratton Bank repainted and tidied up...  Can't see the board being happy with that image.

Of all the supporters in the world to be right now being a town fan must be one of the best.  Yes we are a 4th division team but I'm loving this season more than many in a long long time.  Its difficult to imagine one person igniting the passion and desire for football in a town amongst players and fans as much as Di Canio has.  Hopefully this is the start of great things for Swindon, lets hope we can keep hold of our manager for many years to come!

That photo is fucking ace. We aren't a nice new shiny premiership team, we're little Swindon Town. 125 years of history and tradition. That photo is real life - grimy and perfectly illustrates passage of time and entropy. Everything in the universe tends towards chaos, love, love, love it.

It looks like the poster for a Danny Boyle film.

If it wasn't for the fatties it'd be a great photo.

It's nice being the main story in just about every national newspaper's sports pages.

Absolutely brilliant day yesterday, what a performance. Definitely getting a few odd looks off the locals at the pub I was watching it in, not sure they were expecting to see a dozen or so Town fans jumping up and down like lunatics on a Saturday afternoon.

Well deserved win and am now eagerly awaiting the draw for the next round later.

It shows what a good turn out it was by the Town faithful yesterday - just tuned into Peterborough V Sunderland and see lots and lots of empty seats!

Starting 3-4-3 against a premier league team just made Paolo my favourite person in the world!

Got a new kitten today  :gay: Named him Paolo Di Catio!

Still buzzing from yesterday and nice to see a prediction I made come in, 2-1 to the Town and fully deserved!...2012 is going to be the year for Swindon Town F.C

Any of the top 4 in Prem for me in Round 4, don't mind home or away just enjoy the day!

Onwards to Barnet...

I remember when the Bank had a proper makeover in about 1964, that was when that corrugated iron was put up, also new bogs with drains were installed....looked proper nice with its flagpoles and shiny new Deacon's clock. New turnstiles were put up in Shrivenham Road, so you could access both the Bank and Shrivenham Road.

The back and bogs have not been touched since...

BRILLIANT STUFF!

I saw the match on telly with my dad-in-law. Many norwegians got to see the game cause it was also sent live on Viasat Sport in Norway!

BRILLIANT STUFF!

I celebrated Alan  Connell's goal so hard that my daughter (2 yrs old) started to cry... and had to be comforted...  Roll Eyes
