I looked since 2010/11 we lost 2-1 to MK and as Andy said the most recent time was 3-0 to Doncaster in 2012/13 not since then though.

Easy win….in the end!!
3-1
1-1 half time
Stuttle 2 & Elvis
Supporters muttering at end of the game about how to replace Stuttle when he’s recalled in January to try and save Bournemouth from relegation……
Sound familiar?
John Smith - a member of Swindon’s League Cup winning team in 1969 and Saddlers player manager shortly after.
But otherwise, a superb match preview.

A travelling audience of in excess of 2,000 is hugely impressive and should push the overall number of spectators past 6,000. The Undercroft will be absolutely rocking pre-match.
Will be keen to see how we line up for this one , suspect Sadler may surprise us all with one two unexpected starters.
2000+ Robins in attendance is impressive, let’s hope we send them home disappointed
3-1 to the Mighty Mighty Saddlers
We’ve got this

Here’s a rare one. Iffy Onuora registered as a player/coach with us in the very early Merson days, but I don’t think he made an appearance. If I remember rightly, he got sent off from the sidelines at Swindon away following an ill-tempered to-do.
He then went on to take a coaching role at Swindon, who were probably inspired by his, ahem, ‘passion’, and then perhaps understandably scarpered when Dennis Wise showed up.

Tommy Coakley’s first home game was a 0-3 to Bristol Rovers.

Only 2 more sleeps and still not “feeling the season opener buzz” 
last season is gonna take a lot of getting over and I think this is a really tough opening fixture. A very experienced opposing manager, a HUGE away following and a red hot non league striker making his EFL debut all adds up to a tricky start. I am sure by the time I get to my seater and have re-aquatinted myself with those ST holders around me I will feel differently. Deliberately stayed away from all pre season games so will be good to get a first hand view of many new additions. I’m glad the new season is upon us but really don’t know what to expect from this squad, so it’s a big unknown and can only hope we start well to avoid the inevitable backlash aimed at MS, BB, BS and LP… COYS

Everyone I ask is not looking forward to it 
We need a strong start to the season for sure.

A fast start is imperative, just like when I’m making love to the mistress, but I’m backing Matt and the boys to do just that. We’ve had an outstanding pre-season and the new additions have looked good and adjusted remarkably well to Sadball. Really looking forward to how it all comes together in a competitive environment at an absolutely rocking Pallet-Track Bescot on Saturday afternoon.
