Swindon Town Football Club 100 Greats
Swindon Town Football Club: 100 Greats is a book by Richard (Dick) Mattick published in [2002.
The book lists the 100 Swindon Town players that Mattick considered to be greatest. The players are in alphabetical order, as it was thought to be unfair to rank them.
Mattick's criteria for inclusion was stated as "to include all those players who had made over 250 League appearances, the leading ten goalscorers in the club's history, to include all the player-managers, even if their on-field contribution was negligible. In addition, it felt right to include all of the twelve players who played on the club's great day in 1969" (the 1969 League Cup winning team).
