Swindon Town FC

Post by Tony Knight »

I see that my town's football team are in Carvoeiro (where we shall be next week) on pre-season training at the moment. I didn't realise that any of the hotels had the appropriate facilties. I hope that this might be a lucky omen resulting in promotion to the Championship at the end of the season!!!!

Nice to see another swindon man out there. Perhaps you're right in thinking there are no hotels with the facilities, and that cant be a good omen. Good luck though.

I have read in our local paper that the Swindon Town players spent their week's pre-season training at the Tivoli hotel, and apparantly were very impressed with the facilities there.

Does that say something about the Tivoli or something about Swindon? :?

Hi HampshireRich

I cannot really comment, not having stayed at the Tivoli (although it does look very nice from the outside),and I haven't seen Swindon play for a few years, but I have seen them win 3 times at Wembley.
