Swindon Town vs Oldham Athletic pre match chat and matchday thread

Yep seek some help and don't behave to make others feel as shit as you do..

Very true words and maybe the club should have done more as a duty of care.

Don’t make excuses for the twat

This is probably why I don’t dislike him as much as most, because I never got to hear most of this stuff.

From the outside, inherited a pretty poor squad, with no money available for proper medical or training equipment and lost both his parents in a short period.

That shows generosity on your part, but it's no excuse for him. Stress reveals a lot about people - a decent person wouldn't turn their difficulties into abuse for other people and taking the piss at work.

Sheridan acted like a arsehole because he's an arsehole.

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t like him.
But to me he’s not much worse than other asshole managers that we’ve had, but it’s probably because I don’t know half of the things that he did.

Directing abuse at Pitman because he was strolling about not putting any effort in, I can live with.

Subbing off Conroy to embarrass him, which half our fan base want to do now.

Getting sarcastic with a reporter asking him if he’s going to resign is hardly bad news.

It’s the stuff behind the scenes that make him a special kind of cunt, but I didn’t hear most of that and people seem to want to just put that behind them.

Agree he was an asshole who over stayed his welcome but so was the supporter who gave him abuse outside the stadium hiding behind the fence after the game.

[Batch]

nah, fuck him

I hope the County ground is as toxic as the New Den this afternoon.

I hope the County ground is as toxic as the New Den this afternoon.

I remember a manager of an opposing team in the 80s going on about how tough it was to play at Swindon, because of the intimidating atmosphere.

Let’s hope for a return of that today, but without going over the line (literally in this case)

All within the rules of course! I've spoken before how atmospheric the County ground was years ago before the Don Rogers stand was built and the terraces replaced with seating.

Yeah, I think it was the terracing all down one side, plus close proximity to away fans.
Football, in the most part, is safer (good) but more sterile (bad) than it used to be

Official Twitter trailing a matchday signing, so can only assume Egbo is in the squad.

[Matchworn Shirts]

Some people are begging it to be Egbo, probably without knowing who he is or ever having seen him play

[Nemo]

And indeed it is

Looks quite a big fella, but that may just be the number of layers he seems to be wearing.

What's he been doing since last year

[jayohaitchenn]

MLS runs till november so he's 'only' been out 4 months
