Swindon Town v Accrington Stanley next year......

Sinks in how far we have come when you have justv watched Accy at Clitheroe, then you realise who we'll be playing next year

Swindon Town..... Hurry up August 4th!

Bit of a coincidence, Jase, but on Saturday morning , October 29th 2005 , while my taxibus was parked at Outlane, Huddersfield, I saw the entire Swindon squad plus coaches setting off for a jog from their hotel (The Old Golf House , if it's important) .

As they trotted past me I was really surprised by how small they all were .

You probably remember when we first arrived in the Conference how big all our opponents seemed to be (Woking, in particular) so , even though Stanley had not yet hit their "purple patch", I took comfort from knowing that the players didn't necessarily grow bigger as you went up the pyramid !

And, as you say, here we are on the verge of meeting a pretty prestigious side as equals .

Marvellous !

(And , in case you were wondering , the result that day was :- Huddersfield Town 1 - 1 Swindon Town )
