Despite being elected to the League in 1900, twenty years before the Town, the first meeting between Swindon and Stockport didn't take place until 1958, after the reorganisation of the Division Three North and South divisions into Divisions Three and Four. County won the opening encounter 2-0 at Edgeley Park, the Town won the return game 3-0 at the County Ground.

Stockport were the opponents in the final game of the 1995/96 season, when Swindon picked up the Second Division Championship trophy - a crowd of nearly 14,700 expectant Town fans saw the two teams play out a drab 0-0 draw before the trophy was awarded.
