obviously CalderwoodsLeftFoot and IndianDan or whatever his name was, were booing loudly. But it was from about 20-50 people. The rest were indifferent, or at least didn't voice their feelings. And given that they booed Elsnik too, that put it in context.
To be clear, I never suggested he would get applause.

Thought it was 3-4-2 with Benning and Hamilton playing wing backs, and perhaps 5-2-2 when defending at times.

no I don't think so Pete. Preston was at right back.

Just been studying the footage from both cameras of when the group of Swindon fans chant "stand up if you hate Flitcroft". As the camera pans around, almost nobody stands up. A classic case of the noisy 50 not representing the 6,000 fans in the ground.

Martin the majority clearly could not be arsed to stand for that chant - Flitcroft was not particularly liked at Swindon but obviously is not ‘hated’ throughout - however definitely more than 50 people were signing negatively about him.
It’s a bit like if he left Mansfield now, if he came back within a year he would get a few boos and songs for his abysmal record but the majority will be more focused on their own team.
Now if Evans came back the majority would be more focused on him than Mansfield unfortunately.
anyway, he didn’t get a mixed reaction like at Bury where some were appreciative of the promotion under his reign.
The people chanting they hate him and boo’ed Elsnik off were clearly idiots.
