No chance. Support in the town is too lazy and not interested. Fair play for trying though.

Junior/school football teams would be well up for free tickets. It's a day out an all sorts |

I think you may have had a point a while back, but things feel different now. We'll find out at the Oldham game, I suppose. I think you're being overly pessimistic though. |

Good on them, it can only be a good thing for the club....start the supporters young and hopefully they will come back with parents etc. Plus it will bee good to see the Stratton Bank occupied..

Exactly. Even if they did it for the remainder of the games this season then I don't think they would be very much out of pocket, extra revenue of food and programme sales, having a near full bank and the possiblity of them returning again with parents/friends is there also. |

From the station at Colchester
To the cells of Warrington
From the services at Leicester
To the slums of Northampton
We travel over England
And one day Europe too
Cos we all follow the Swindon
We're the famous Town End crew.

That is absolutely superb. When it says purchased 2000 tickets I'm guessing that is cash to the club as well?

Excalibur sponsors the Robins as well. A quick search on the Adver site for them shows that they've done a hell of a lot in the town in terms of sponsoring events etc.

Loads of support in the surrounding towns and villages. I know more fans from outside of Swindon than I do from Swindon, I'd say maybe 75%. |

Fair play to them and I hope its a complete success. After how flat the atmosphere in the ground seemed today fans on the bank might make a difference even if its only kids.

I am doing a lot of wondering lately.
On this I am wondering if this is an initiative that has been worked on for a while, and started under the old regime, if it is something post-jed or if it is purely random chance that a company has made the offer at this stage.
