It's tough right now, isn't it?
But here we are in our 5th season at the apex of English football, and to be honest,
we have not disgraced ourselves in any way.
I bet a lot of you have your Fathers, Grandfathers, who supported the club from the year dot.
I know I have. My Grandad was there for the first league game in 1923 at Swindon. He proudly told me that many a time.
We were at the League 3 level till 1970. An unbroken run of 47 years of nothingness.
So, many of us on here have seen every relegation we have ever had, and on the bright side, every promotion. (I am saying anyone born pre 1962 ish will remember it all)
Here we are today, all depressed because we are in the relegation zone of the toughest league in the world.
I expect we all feel different. If we get relegated, to me in the Championship, we are still batting well above our average.
To the new fans (with all their points for tickets) they will feel we are batting below our average.
I will not mourn if we are relegated. I was alive when the impossible happened.
I wish my Father was here to see what we have achieved.
But, let us put it all in to perspective....16 games to go...48 points...Let's fight for every fookin one of them!
