FANS of Swindon Town FC have draped a banner over a bridge along the A420 ahead of today’s derby match against Oxford United.

Their message, daubed in red and hanging over the main route between the towns, was spotted early this morning.

And the bull statue outside the Oxford United FC’s ground has been given a red hat and a spray painted sign with the words ‘Swindon is OK’.

It comes as the teams meet for the first time since February 2017. The game was originally due to be played last month but was postponed because of positive Covid tests in the Swindon side.

Kick off is at 3pm. For coverage visit our sports section here
