Apologies to all for going off on one ( or 2 or 3), a couple of weeks away and with things now settled I hope I can behave myself.
Anyway, I still see our resident dullard hasn’t managed to post one single positive comment on the events of the past couple of days. How he must hate it!
Good to see you back sir. Things are looking much more positive since you went away  Any player signing rumours? |

I've just remembered something that my old mate, Reg, would have remembered: St Clem is the patron saint of blacksmiths. St Clem was the name on the lips of Wiltshire agricultural rioters in the Captain Swing riots of 1830. I shall have a drink tonight, courtesy of the Radical Stroud Reg Smeeton Memorial Cup, and toast St Clem. This is, as Reg would say, a very good rune.
Great post! Pure 'Reg'. He would have been frowning on this week's outbreak of optimism and urging a much more cautious approach from the fanbase. |

Reg infected everyone before passing, that much is evident. Talk of saving our status as a Football league club being the target for the season!
Garner would have rubbed him up the wrong way I imagine, and talk of developing the youth - not that he'd have been against it as such, more that it would not be how you get our of League two at the right end.

Reg would have constructed a correlation between league position and takeover based on past history to predict where we would finish in Div 4

We have never been promoted with an Antipodean owner. |

As it stands, we could be bringing a whole new meaning to the term "football strip".

I say this every year but I would complete love a bespoke designed in house Swindon Town shirt which isn’t a copy & paste template job loads of other clubs either had the previous season or will also have this season.
I assume that it doesn’t make much sense logistically or financially but I’m no artist or designer but I reckon I could come up with the best home kit we’ve had in 10 years in 10 minutes.

But the dgi kit was in house wasn't it ? Not a great precedent if so.
