So, would be a 5th be a Town Record?
In my 46+ years of following Swindon a 5th would be a 1st for sure. |

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.

I did a check and we have used 4 1st team keepers in a season in 7 seasons....
85-86 Allen, Endersby, Findlay, Key
87-88 Crichton, Digby, Flowers, Hammond
95-96 Digby, Given, Mildenhall, Talia
97-98 Warner, Talia, Mildenhall, Digby
15-16 Vigoroux, Kean, Velford, Henry
17-18 Vigoroux, Henry, RCC, Moore
But in 99-00 season we actually used 5 keepers.
Talia, Glass, Mildenhall, Greimink and Flanagan came on as a sub for 60 mins in 1 game vs Sheff Utd after injury to Mildenhall.

I would take that over Sheridan any day. He was a bit of a bad boy as a player but also was talented and has had some moderate success in this division- I think he got Fleetwood to the playoffs last season and lost to Wycombe? Has to be a massive upgrade on the Jurassic one. I hope Sheridan gets sacked and never gets a job in management again (unless he gets a job with our yellow neighbours)... |

Can’t think of anyone who wouldn’t be an upgrade on Sheridan.

I must confess that in my more paranoid moments I do wonder whether Sheridan was a Poxford fan as a kid. |

0-0
No shots (let alone shots on target) for either side.

Paul Hart and Mike Bassett are the only 2 I can think of and then I'm not so sure |

Malpas may have been dull as dishwater but he wasn't a tosser and a bully |

Don't think Malpas was anywhere near the Hart/Sheriidan level. I'd put him alongside Williams, shit manager, decent coach. A genuine guy who couldn't help the fact he was out of his depth, Gorman;s probably in that bucket too. |

I agree the guy never ruffled anyone's feathers but simply wasn't good enough as a manager |

Without having ever met Malpas, I got the impression that he was a nice bloke who tried his best but was out of his depth.

I think that's a good summary a decent non offending type who wasn't up to the job similar to Williams |
