Bristol Shitty owner Lansdown converts another £14m in club debts into shares and has them written off.

We travel over England
And one day Europe too
Cos we all follow the Swindon
We're the famous Town End crew.

And they still can't get above the championship, Oh for an owner with cash to splash like that.  |

Not sure if this should be in the ‘good’ or ‘bad’ thread.
The Rangers Chairman has suggested the top 4 Scottish clubs joining the Caribou Cup. Tbf, that competition has become very stale and I don’t think I would be against it - unless we’re drawn away to Aberdeen!

Aberdeen is a great city! Bit of a trek mind but would be a brilliant away day. Not like Swindon are ever going to get into Europe anyway so would be the closest to an away European trip we're likely to get. |

To be fair, the league cup is a competition that could do with a bit of a revamp. Could add all the Scots Prem teams in tbf. They’d probably all take it seriously and for then it’s a potential route into Europe. Would also throw up some new fixtures. Only down side would be (apart from the final) aren’t all the other games mid week. Celtic away on a Tuesday night is probably a bit too much of a trek |

I went there last year just after lockdown, it didnt feel very great at the time, mid August and pissing with rain on both days we visited! It is miles from anywhere though! |

Aberdeen away would be the most convenient Town game possible for me now really, bring on the Anglo-Scottish Cup!

I think because there is a lot of Granite, it has a grey and dark look about it, not helped in dreek conditions! |

Dreek does indeed sum the city up! it was mid August and it was 10 degrees, wet and windy! |

I took my daughter to an Aberdeen Uni open day a couple of summers ago. We drove up in a day and took in a visit to Dundee V&A en route.
It goes without saying that we had to have a look at Pittodrie before enjoying an ice cream on the prom.
Great place but they can stick to their own competitions, thanks.
