Taylor Curran

[manor15]

Has signed a 3 year extension to his contract at Swindon and seems to be very highly rated by them there. Handful of first team appearances this season but seems next season could be a big one for him.

We didn’t seem to bothered about letting him go. Wonder why we didn’t try and hold onto him.

Look up the Taylor Curran to Swindon thread....I did post a possible reason but it was just a guess.

As I think Rigsby could be alluding to, his pace off the mark isn't great, but would be interesting to see something of him at first-team level. There have been slow defenders with his build who have gone on to have very good careers.

Rumours at Swindon that his dad is donating money to the club regularly. You can imagine the conclusions that has led to given his poor form of late.

At the weekend he ended up in a punch-up on the bench with another Swindon sub.

Then last night he came on up-front to score in the derby with Oxford (albeit a consolation goal to make it 2-1).

I've been hearing about this. Swindon fans on twitter saying that his dad is pretty much paying his contract. But I couldn't tell if it was tongue in cheek or not. What a bizarre situation.

But having mates who played in academies and trialled myself, I know what "football dads" can be like...

I refuse to believe anyone actually paid for Blair Sturrock's contract.

You and me both. I have heard though that if Blair behaved himself at training, Luggy would take him down the seafront to have a Rossi's Ice cream and donuts...

Talking of Blair, is he still based in Canada? Would be a cool guest for the Custard Splat pod @FarmdogSUFC @Ayrshire Blue

He is one we'd like on. I personally thought he was harshly treated by a lot of fans. He was nowhere near as bad as some made out to be. Not saying he was a world beater but he gave a good shift and helped relieve the team of a lot of pressure when we needed it.

There's certainly one story about training that I wouldn't mind hearing again, although I'm not sure he'd want that broadcast

Back to Cullen, I actually thought he looked to have a bit about him when I saw him in a friendly before, bit of a swagger. Didn't expect him to be playing a league above us mind you

Still on the bench today...along with...surprise,surprise Jack Payne.

An appearance in this article of the disaster at Swindon

Supporters were apparently baffled why he was constantly in the match day squad (63 times he was an unused substitute!)

Also bonus mention of other ex-Shrimpers Anthony Grant (answering an S-O-S to return. Obviously compared to 2010 when he was one of 3 pros, being one of 9 under contract is a luxury); caretaker manaager Steve Mildenhall and Jack Payne.

A little known fact about Maidstone. It's an anagram of "I am stoned".

You'd have to be stoned to even realise that.
