🎙️951. Expelled! A Very Swindon Saga

#STFC made mistakes and have paid the expected price. That's our opinion, press play if you wish.

IH has carried the club, solo, through this and deserves our gratitude.

Fans need to unite, not dwell.

I wonder how this article reads outside the #STFC bubble, where it isn't every day life.

Do people pause at 'committing fouls of the "private body parts" of two opponents' and re-read it before continuing?

So many 'excusez-moi' moments.

Extraordinary.
