I haven’t forgiven them, or more precisely, Nottinghamshire’s finest boys in blue, for whacking me, and others, with a baton when we won the league there under Macari. Thatcher’s boot boys.
I got Head butted by a police horse at Reading, once.

I was close to being nabbed, they waded into us randomly that day. But what a fucking day! Police escort through Mansfield 60mph in a 30mph zone with the Police creating an a clearway for us cars and coaches to get out of Mansfield back to the M1. Great memories. |

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.

Pretty much like the famous 6-4 victory at Birmingham, Still don't know how we got out of that one alive !!.
Birmingham fans seemed a little disgruntled that day for some reason.

Town will lose 1-2 Att 9,016 JJW booked. Although JBZ won't be sad, as he receives a knob job at Swindon Bus Station from one of Manchester Rd's finest. L-L will be a little jealous about it all and Wobbly Bob will have a very blurry witness account of it! Flammable Ben will recall even more inebriated and exaggerated tales of the event that fine evening in the Glue Pot  Everyone loves a happy ending. Ahh culture - you've gotta soak it up and embrace it!  |

Epic day that! Came out of the gates to follow the same route back to the car and confronted with a line of plod... Had to find our way back to the disused garage, where i had dumped the Astra. Happy fucking days indeed. |

I've already got my ticket, but I was wondering if they are still doing a cut off time for walk ups? Be good to let others know.

Plenty of seats available everywhere when I looked yesterday.
Let’s hope today and tomorrow we get a late surge.
Anything over 8,500 would be a superb effort and best guess around 8,000.
