http://www.swindonfc1879.com/Shop/Item.asp?ItemCode=21FPRIf anyone's interested, there's a new Swindon Town book out by Dick Mattick - Swindon Town's first promotion, about the 1962-63 season. I got it in the post Christmas Eve, not had a chance to read it yet but it looks really good. Available from the above link (and i would guess the club shop hopefully)

That was the rumour - probably school kid rumours, like Miss Burbidge having a wooden tit, prompted the chorus of "Wouldn' t it be good" by Nick Kershaw in the corridoors whenever she was walking through. Thems were the days
