There was a time when #Swindon was the home of the railways. Brunel was almost the Elon Musk of his day - a legacy that lasted over 100 years. Generations of engineers learnt their trade here and the car industry arrived as a result. Sadly, we're now the home of the warehouse.

What's that? @Official_STFC and @TrustSTFC have used the wrong picture in today's programme? Would that be QPR winning the League Cup? And not #STFC's finest hour in 1969? FFS - just so so typical of the lack of pride, care and professionalism at #STFC. On top of defeat vs 24th

Who could have known that when I met Jason at Broome manor golf club 38 years ago he would end up driving around Molinari’s buggy at the Ryder cup and I would asking for a lift to the tv compound. Golf really is the greatest sport. Lifelong friendships built, and kept 👌⛳️🇪🇺
