Wellens.....

[dickos1]

They were 16th when he took over.
What people expected before the season started isn’t really relevent, notts county were expected to get promoted.
Not sure why you’re shoe horning fergie into this topic

Ruled himself out of the position

(I don't think he was in contention anyway)

Anyone else reading that as a come and get me?

I thought that initially.

I've been to Swindon.  Half the population would send out a "come and get me" message just to get away from the place.

Maybe I didnt make it clear,but he brought in his own player in the transfer window,and they were still awful.
Swindon should have made the play offs,,but got turned over by average teams week in week out.
Lots more goals,but typically by the opposition. That is why Swindon fans feel he f**ked it up

Plus Wellens and Lee Power deserve each other.

Ah,
You don’t like Wellens, I get it now

[WheatleyRover]

He has said he isn't going for the job as he wants to show loyalty to Swindon and the players he wanted to keep at the club, the opposite of a certain someone

[sedwardsdrfc]

Difference is we haven't approached him directly and made it known we want him like Hull did. Maybe a different story if we did that. Fingers crossed we don't though think it's too soon for Wellens

That's absolute boll#x. If you read what I posted I said I've seen nearly every game since he took over and they have been terrible.
I dont have likes/dislikes or favourites unlike some.

[dickos1]

You just said Wellens and power deserved each other.

If that was a jibe at me, I’ve supported every manager we’ve ever had while they’ve been in charge and been criticised for it.

I got stuck in the Magic Roundabout and called Air/Sea Rescue to come and get me.

And then to leather the shite out of the idiot that designed it.

If that was a jibe at me, I’ve supported every manager we’ve ever had while they’ve been in charge and been criticised for it.

And some even after.

It was a fact Dicky,no jibe at you. Dont be so pre pubescent and touchy

[NickDRFC]

If I lived in Iberia and travelled back to England every other week for a game f**k me I’d try and go somewhere better than Swindon 😉
