Would of liked a home draw but oh well can't complain too much. After all we did beat City away so we shouldn't fear nobody ;)

I just took a look at a Swindon forum.

It's full of "we'll beat Villa" and "winnable" comments. One of them suggested the only good player we have is Darren Bent.

Honestly, these cheeky fuckers. Swindon are in League One, ALL our players are good compared to theirs.

Bugger, am away at Haven holidays in Doniford bay that week (half term).

Google maps says 2 hours 9 minutes to the ground ;)

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...

My Swindon mate has already agreed to go which means I have a lift sorted. Home would've been easier but it's a new away ground for me so I'm happy overall.

They have enough fans to warrant a forum?

To be fair, I can easily see why any fan who doesn't keep a close eye on us might think that.

To be fair if I were a Swindon fan, and thank fuck I'm not a carrot crunching inbred, I'd be happy with the draw, we are inconsistant and veer wildly between good and abysmal.

Don't think anyone has actually ever found Swindon pleasurable!

But the day after we scored 4 at Man City?

Not fans of a League One club.

I found it very pleasurable watching us win promotion there.
