Quiz question for today: Who remembers the name of the Saddlers’ old ground before the Bescot?

Fellows Park
Well done Audrey. You win a free ticket to the game, which was helpfully delivered to me in Paris this morning.  |

Fellows Park was a proper old school ramshackle missmatch of stands.

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.

Quite ironic though that a man in Paris offering a man in Greece a ticket for a game in the Black Country! |

Can’t imagine either of us would have got our visas anyway. And while we’re at it, does anyone want a ticket to New Model Army at the Roundhouse in London tomorrow night? #feckinvirus #brokendreams |

Since Walsall moved to the Bescot in 1990 Swindon have won there 4 times, drew 5 times and lost 4 times, scoring 18 times and conceding 15 times.
In our last 10 visits Swindon have won 4 and drawn 4 with us losing just twice, scoring 16 goals and conceding 10 times.
Our biggest win came there on Boxing Day 2014 with a 4-1 win in the snow with 1,204 Town fans making the trip.

If there’s a sniff of a bit of glory hunting come the 3rd round, I’ll give it a try. Still got my EasyJet vouchers from 2019. |

Hale is ok but he seems to be ultra negative at times, still not as negative as Dave Hockaday! |
