Kid in the Riot Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 Can't see their diving getting them anywhere in a cauldron of noise at AG in front of the Sky cameras... Hopefully a strong ref is appointed who is aware of their reputation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixtyseconds Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 in a cauldron of noise at AG When was this? The Lazio chap who visited called it a hush of Tombola. Crap sounds so much more interesting in a foreign tongue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 Losing managers always moan about something. Cotts Saturday, Dickov last night etc. Yes I know that happens, but when the same team keeps getting mentioned again and again for the same thing by different managers, they can't be all wrong can they. Swindon aren't winning many friends, but trouble is they are winning games. Maybe their talent isn't as good as people think it is if they have to cheat to gain an advantage.

Esmond Million's Bung Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 Losing managers always moan about something. Cotts Saturday, Dickov last night etc. Yes but there really does seem to be a theme developing here, don't you think?. A bit like Liverpool a couple of seasons ago not being able to claim goals when they hit the post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E.J.Thribb Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 I posted that article to a Swindle supporting friend's facebook wall. Go this reply from one of his Swindle cohorts. ''Parky is having a laugh. We were getting kicked to shit last night, and he wants to talk about professionalism?! they were lucky to keep 10 men on the pitch let alone 11. I can take jibes at our play acting. We do it because we have to. But I wont take a manager who clearly sent his side out to hurt us physically (a la Cotterill) complaining about us not being honest.'' They really are crying over all this :laugh:. There is no smoke without fire, with Bradford being the third club this season to complain about their histrionics.

He said that the majority of away fans said EXACTLY the same thing, they are not very popular club are they? Take from that observation what you will, but we (it seems) are not alone !

Pewsham Red Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 Always the victims, it's never their fault To be fair, the comment from the Swindon lad is right. Unfortunately, we have picked up a deserved reputation for being a touch 'dramatic' in games and where you guys were concerned, you had a valid complaint. Unfortunately, it is an easy charge to level at us now, even when you get beat fair and square and where whinging Parky is concerned, there is absolutely no basis to this claim. They had 4 yellow cards the first half and subbed a guy at half time who was on his final, final warning (stonewall second yellow) for clearing out Nathan Byrne for the umpteenth time. They clearly had a plan to kick us about and, to be fair to them did a really good job. Cooper has the good grace to not harp on about some of the rough house tactics we encounter but opposing managers like to make excuses for defeats. We are absolutely not whiter than white and I am the first to admit to being disappointed by some of our histrionics this season but Parkinson, as usual, is talking cobblers.

I didn't go to County or Sheff U and no one is debating yellow cards. I am also not defending us throughout the season as a whole. All I have said is that Bradford had no right to complain. It is interesting that on a few occasions their players went to ground a easily and either lino or ref waved play on as no offence committed but Parkinson didn't bother to mention that. Just like he didn't mention his teams 5 or 6 yellows and kicking lumps out of us from the first minute. I suspect fans will do like most of us do and check out other forums. It is easy to make a judgement, whether justified or not and assume that every time a player from a 'diving' team hits the ground it must be a dive. We have earned that reputation and now have to live with it and rightly have received stick for it. As for the Coventry game, can't agree there either. Wasn't any theatrics in that game as far as I recall, but it will often depend on what you want to see, whichever side of the fence you are sitting.

'Parky' has my full blessing for his team giving as good as you like to dish out and then to have the audacity to bitch about it afterwards. I am glad you feel a sense of injustice, you may develop a degree of sympathy for the next victims you cheat. It's only a pity they didn't also beat you.
