I’ve got it on very good authority it’s going to be the Paddy Power stadium.

As long as I get some free bets out of it I'd be happy

Another day, yet another sponsor

‘ Swindon Town are delighted to announce that Fiesta de Cuba have become our new added time sponsor for the 2023/2024 season.’

That's the bar tab sorted

There used to be a Bookies in the North Stand, didn't there?  The joy of the uproar crowd - it's in our history, lets have a bookies on every corner (assuming the old Brentford effort of pubs is beyond us).

Had one where the pop up shop in the Stratton Bank corner of the DRS for years and years late 90s early 2000s, then I remember a window towards the town end side of the Arkells had one in more recent years too.

Makes sense. I'm sure some would kick off but I'd probably have an impulsive late ten sheet on a goal scorer just before kick off or something.

Money on the table.

I remember leaving the Intel stand as a kid and he was refusing to pay out for something and some matey looked like he was going to smash his teeth in.
