    Timmi is flagging a bit at the moment.

    I've just read a so say insider piece from a player who said our number 1 goalie will never step out in a Swindon shirt after a fall out with the boss.

    Other so called top players are on their way at rock bottom prices

    I thought you were going to meet Claw v Millwall Rammy

    And the Lamb curry after the match was good Rammy? Seems every time Rammy watches Swindon play away we win, he is our lucky mascot!

    Let's not forget that Forest don't even play their games in Nottingham but Nottinghamshire, Rushclffe Rovers would be a more apt name Rammy

    I thought we were the better team in that we battled more and showed more commitment and could easily of banged a couple in 1st half. Your Grant and Stead were your downfall IMO as they couldn't handle it and no doubt, like you, thought we would be a walkover given losing 0-5 to Luton. These two players were losing the plot and made for great entertainment at my end lol.

    We eased off towards the end and you desperately tried to equalise but a lack of on target kicking and a brilliant tip over save from our number 2 keeper kept the score as it should of been - 1-0.

    I thoroughly enjoyed the game due to the win - the antics of your two players and the banter from our fans.

    If you'd had told me you were coming down I could of got you a beer and we could have watched the Gers.

    Fans nearly always say "we didn't play well" when they lose.

    Some Luton fans were on a Swindon forum arguing with me as I said neither team (Swindon or Luton) looked very good despite 0-5 to them. I left the convo last week but went back in on Saturday and pointed out the Vale 4-0 result lol Karma is wonderful.

    In general this league is very poor in quality of football and it seems no team is standing out as top dogs. We beat Luton at theirs 3-0. We beat Port Vale at theirs 3-0.Both times we looked really good. Laz went to Crewe and said we looked really good when we beat them.
    I conclude we or any team is only as good as the opposition allow and we were better on the days.
    I would agree with that gaz,I'm glad that we have already played Swindon at home as they seem to be on some kind of good away run,I was at the game when Swindon came to Meadow Lane and I can't remember being that impressed with the Robins,without looking it up I think we won 1-0 by a scrappy penalty but it doesn't matter how you get the points as long as you get them, Stead played as he always does,it irritates a lot of fans btf but he does get a few decisions go his way,I don't know what Grant thought that he was playing at,he acted like a ten year old kid,a very poor performance by him,he's on loan from Forest but he's bagged 16 goals for us so far
    All in all it could have been a better game and the 1-0 score was a fair one,I don't normally mention to other posters if I'm visiting their ground in case they feel obliged to meet up but thank you for the offer gaz,very generous of you

    Nice one Chalky. I can see that if things come together for you at the right time you will thrash someone

    So thats Sweden Town v the Notts Florist wannabes is it eh lads.

    Why werent County wearing their usual magpie kit Chalky ?.
    If theres one thing that has always peed me off its when teams wear their away kit for no reason whatsoever. Im sure Swindon have noticed the same as we both wear the same red n white kit. For example I couldnt understand why Notts County wore their awful green n yellow mix kit that night at ours, and even worse we wore our yellow n black that season at Meadow Lane when we could have wore our usual red.
    So who gets to decide these things ?.

    Notts usually have different sponsors for the home kit and the away kit so they are contracted to wear the away kit but I've got no idea why we played in our third kit,our usual away kit is blue so it wouldn't have clashed with Swindon's red kit,maybe it was a sponsor thing but to be honest I've no idea if the sponsors are the same on both away kits or not as we didn't go for a season long sponsorship this year but a different one every month,maybe it was just a way of flogging some third kit shirts in the shop?
