Bizarrely enough we won at Swindon on 30th October 1993 - If the game is on the Tuesday, that will be the 30th October also.

I know this as it was my 22nd birthday back then...


I love those type of stats. That would have been our last trip there given that was their only season in the top flight. Without checking it up can anyone recall the game/result?

Happy 41st in advance by the way.

That was the home game. I think it was 2-1 at their place.

Wasn't the 5-0 at home with Deano getting a Hat trick?  2-1 away I thought.

So it was. I could have sworn we battered them there as well.

Will be a chance to see the 'good' James Collins again.

Funnily enough they will be playing here on Saturday; will be a bit of a 'needle' match as it was adjudged a week ago that Swindon will only have to pay Shrewsbury an initial fee of £140,000 for their acquisition of Collins in the Summer.

You doing any scouting?

Probably not as we're playing Sunday. I'm embarrassed to admit I've not been to the New Meadow since March last year (apart from Sunday lunch in July), even though I have alot of dealings with the Chairman.

I think a young Stephen Froggatt scored in that game as well IIRC

Oh and thanks Eamonn

Shaun Teale and Dalian Atkinson so a quick search tells me.

A Paul Bodin penalty for them.

If my memory serves me right, we played them in the FA Cup one or two seasons before they got promoted into the Premier League and that is the game in which Frogatt scored the screamer.  If I remember rightly, it was a really tricky tie and we were fortunate to get away with a win.  It will always be the ground on which we got promoted for me though!!

Living not to far from Swindon I have quite a few Swindon supporting friends. They are already discussing on facebook who they would like in the next round.

I hope we stuff the bastards, Swindon is a shit hole.
