Morgan's out to shine (From The Oxford Times)

More important than this story your neighbours down the road have got the winners vote for:

Best L2 player - Matt Ritchie
Best Match day programme - Swindon Town fc.

Family Club of the year - Swindon Town FC

So give your neighbours that you love so dearly some praise.

The STFC revolution under Paolo rolls on.

LeGod, you are too modest... You forgot to mention your own special award from the Oxford Mail Sports Readers.... Chav Chump of the Year.. You just pipped Fish and Chips at the post..

Well, OU got all that last season while ST were being relegated.

More to celebrate for us soon!!!

What about the Yellows?

Will you make the play offs?

I reckon you will make the final and lose at Wembley!!!!!!!!!!

Oh how I wish we'd won 'Family Club Of The Year'... the one award that no red blooded fan ever really wants to see bestowed on their club. It basically says you're the club with the least intimidating atmosphere and the friendliest vibe. Oooh, how nice.

I reckon we'll miss out on the playoffs by a couple of points on the last day.

As long as we spend wisely over the summer and continue to negotiate the purchase of our stadium I'm happy to be honest. But then I remember the days of FOUL and not knowing from one week to the next whether Oxford would continue to exist.

What a load of cobblers LY - what do you want to do go back to the dark ages again - or are you still stuck there ... this is now the year 2012 and clubs depend on as much support as they can get - not put them off with mindless wannabes playing out their pathetic so say crowd battles.
It is possible to have intimidating atmosphere and have a friendly vibe to encourage families along.

Have a good week you lot

London Yellow - you sum up the mentality of some of your fans which is moronic - All clubs want the award to encourage new young fans along perhaps thats why your club is still in the dark ages and we get bigger crowds and have four stands to put them in unlike you morons who were ripping your own clubs seats up - yes well done on that adding more cost for your club to pay out for morons like you.

Grow up you prat were past the 1970's, football has changed and yes there maybe rivalry with you and us but if all your interested in is trouble when you go to football and being moronic then the less of prats like you the better for everyone that go to games.

LeDog, I think london yellow was trying to wind you up. Seems it worked.
.
I gotta be honest, I've got nothing against you, Chish, and similarly non-offensive posters (I know you called yellow a prat, but that was only because he tickled your balls) coming on this site.
.
I can see that the conty ground is family friendly. But that in itself doesn't explain its lack of atmosphere. It lacks atmosphere because the stand behind the home goal is soo small - it may as well not be there (is that still your family stand?).
.
Don't get me wrong the Kassam is also badly lacking in atmosphere. I know it was rocking when we peed on you with 10 men, but believe me - most games it still feels like non-league. We'd be better off in the manor in all honesty. The problem isn't just that it's all-seater and that there is a stand missing. The three stands that are there are too far away from the pitch and the gaps in the corners are enormous. When it was (eventually) built, we heard all this nonsense from the club about how it was "the only ground in the country where an ambulance can drive round the pitch uninhibited". Freaking great, and how often has the ambulance actually been needed to do that during a game? Never - if memory serves me right. Indeed, they don't even bother sticking the sleeping ambulance in the massive corner anymore. Firoz Kassam gets a lot of flack (rightly) but the stadium plans were drawn up in the time of Robin Herd and Ian Cox. What were they thinking¿ Sadly, our ground is almost as soulless as the conty ground. Though not quite....at least we can sing in unison. Maybe yous could still sing in unison, but I've not heard it happen yet. Must be pretty pants for the players to hear that double out-of-time singing from the opposite sides of the pitch. Anyhow, long post...time to hit submit...

Well put Ben!

Love the bit about about the ambulance - only you lot could dream that crazy one up.
Haven't been to your new ground - went to the old one loads of times - wouldn't say that was a picture either everything seemed on a different level and stands that were made up from leftovers from WW2.
But as you say it had more atmosphere.

Overall on games is it still 18 - 12 wins for us.

Somehow that win against us done you more harm than good it would appear, you lot got carried away afterwards and thought you only had to turn up at games and get the points, for us we had to prove it was a very bad day at the office, and resume normal service, which we have done up till now.

Have a good week you lot.

I don't think you thought too much about your reply B86 .

Having a Family Friendly ' club generates income and also encourages another generation of supporters who can hopefully enjoy a game without having the local noddle heads throw seats and other missiles at them.

So your ha ha statement smacks of your pathetic embarrassment of your own club....

Luckily you have a few sensible ones on here which make up for the likes of you.
