Swindon have sold 1,000 tickets so far

[ninian opinian]

for their game against us in the Carabao Cup. That’s good going, there’ll be more of them than us.

Remember going there in 96...fa cup 2nd round i think.
One of my mates noticed not many City fans were watching the football.
We left when we were 2 down with 5 mins left.
As we walked by the ground, a Swindon kid asked us if there was going to be a riot...we just laughed.
Fast forward a week...on radio 5 live phone in, a Swindon fan rang up and asked if there was a blanket ban on reporting trouble.
He said after the game the scum Cardiff fans ran through their town centre kicking all the windows in...suggesting there was a ban because the euros were later that year in England.

[kendoddsdadsdogsdead]

He said it wasn't even in the local Swindon paper...makes you think

This equivalent game last season (against Southampton) wasn by some distance the best game of the season really.

I hope we put out a good team and win. A bit of a cup run and a big home game would do us all good

[Garth Blue]

The equivalent last year was Bristol Rovers.

My first ever away game Swindon boxing day 1975.
We were 3 nil down before we got in the ground. I should have given up then !

Okay fair enough, that's right, but I mean an early league cup game at home still. 👍

[Fatty Foggon]

Can't wait to see Don Rogers again.

[goats]

Excited to come here are they? Maybe never been to the CCS? Like many others will probably sing “your not cardiff anymore”

He was some player. Wasn't he in the the Swindon side that won the League Cup?

It’s a case of 10 other players around him, as he won the league cup

[Trigger]

Apparently a crowd of 5718 for the rovers game last season. No idea what they brought.

Swindon have never played at CCS so I would imagine it's going to be a priority away game for many of their fans. New ground, fairly local.

[Boanagers]

Remember going there over Christmas during the season of TOBW’s book, Tony Evan’s walks on water, not a happy day being on the end of a 4-0 reverse!.

Boxing Day 1975. My first City away game too, and fifty years later I'm still scarred by the memory.

Newport vs Swindon seems to be a bit tasty. Only another 15 miles

Figured as much, afraid we will see lots of excited away fans this year coming to such a big stadium laughing at the state of us. I doubt most ever came to Ninian park either as it was deemed “too scary” back in the dungeon days. Boy are they in for a shock, what with Nash frothing at the mouth trying to please them…..

Christ alive, rovers and Swindon are our new “rivals”……

I still cringe at the Newcastle ‘Blaydon Races’ game, how embarrassing.

And being ‘detained’ before I even got into the ground. I didn’t miss much I know but ffs give me a chance
