We are certainly going in the right direction with crowds.
And that is not universal. Oxford's home gate fell by 20% last season. They were one of 9 (nine!) clubs that saw a decline of 20% or more against the previous season (2011/12). Football League Attendances 2008-13 |

Might be a decent crowd as ppl tend to buy tickets earlier rather than on the day so weather matters not 2 sections of drs upper sold out and even the section nearest TE is in the orange ( according to the ticketing webbie ) As for the game itself am going for a 3 nil win with Ranger getting 2 and Pritchard Be great to keep another clean sheet Lets say 9194 att with 326 from warsaw Am in the Arkells tonight for the first time on over 20 years  mainly due to DRS not having 3 seats anywhere together bar the 2 end sections  |

I'll take any sort of Swindon win - we're guaranteed to move up at least one place if we do

...and still falling this season. Lower, lower! |

Much more difficult outing this evening so easy to think this could quite possibly be a draw however I am going for a 2-1 win. Unfortunately I will not be there as Swindon and I need to rest up, as my visits have become so regular I might end up liking the place....and I can`t allow that to happen.

Got a (mate) who goes to Pox matches occasionally and he reckons the ground is shit, that beer tent thingy is shut, football is crap kick and rush hoofball and even though they are up near the top there is no atmosphere (must be the altitude)!
He is coming with me tonight to see something vastly better (hopefully).

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.

There are very few clubs who got their relocation project as badly wrong as Oxford did...and they are paying the price to this day. Everything...the ground design, the location, the ownership (critically), the lack of amenities nearby. Fix all those things and it would add a few thousand to the gate on its own. They won't though, because they can't. |

Don't know why but I have a feeling were going to lose tonight.
Everyone is very happy, were playing fantastic, great home record so it's bound to end tonight as I have finally convinced my grandad to come along. He hasn't been in over 25 years since we got dicked at Pox and relegated to Div 4.
0-2

Second game of the season, which breaks the playing teams at the foot of the table, home and teams at the top of the table away, pattern. The first away out of pattern we lost at Shrews, so it will be interesting to see how tonight goes...a win would be very significant...a loss not the end of the world. |
