| Menu | Swindon Town Edition Updated with 2008/9 season |
Capture the history and greatest moments of Swindon Town through the newspapers, as written at the time. Starting with coverage of Swindon's' 1-3 away win over Coventry in 1926, this book charts a glorious history of great games and League and Cup titles through the decades of the 20th & 21st centuries. Early top stories include, beating Man Utd away 0-2 in the 1930 FA Cup 3rd Round, and thrashing Newport 8-0 in 1938. Coverage continues after the war including the 2-4 away win at Norwich in 1956 and beating Shrewsbury in 1963 to gain promotion to Division 2. Relive the excitement of 1969: gaining promotion to Division 2 and of course beating Arsenal 3-1 to secure the League Cup. Read about the 32,000 record attendance at the County Ground against Arsenal in 1972, the 5-0 domination of Fulham in 1977 and the turbulent events around the 1990 promotion to Division 2 to be taken away over the irregular payment scandal, to be reinstated on appeal. More recent games are also covered including promotion to the Premiership in 1993. Newspaper coverage continues right up to the match in April 2009 (Swindon 2 Bristol Rovers 1). The book opens with a front page montage of famous Swindon players surrounding your own personalised label containing the recipient's name and greetings.
