Statistics geeks, delight! Swindon Town will hit a niche landmark when MK Dons visit the County Ground this weekend.

The fixture is not just a promotion showdown in League Two, but also Town’s 6,000th competitive match across the club’s recorded history.

Swindon will be hoping for their 2,317th victory, rather than a 2,242nd defeat.

The full record, produced by the inimitable Townenders website – the ultimate encyclopaedia for any Town fans, shows that the Robins have scored 9,014 competitive goals in their history.
