Reminds me of when the Clifton Pub coach failed to turn up at Worthing for the trip to Preston in the late 1970s. That was the only match in all competitions that I missed that season and I never achieved the feat. Some of the other waiting fans, including the late Nick Turner as I remember...

I think Tony Towner was pretty nippy but an older player who has more of a speed reputation was Frankie Howard, who became the groundsman at the GG.

There were at least three Mansfield Town players involved, of whom Jimmy Gauld was the instigator and got the longest sentence of 4 years. I distinctly remember a dressing room scene from this film and thought how authentic it looked with 1960s MTFC shirts. On researching this edit to get names...

I had been living up here nearly five years but secured a ticket with a pleading letter, enclosing all my Seagulls' Special charter train tickets which I had thoughtfully kept. :) My brother, who was living in Watford, went down to Wembley and got us replay tickets. Very similar to me. I...

I was gobsmacked by this post. Obviously you don't know what a republic is, but you're no kid, are you. Judging by your user name and avatar I'd guess you grew up in the era when 3000+ people were killed in Northern Ireland. Did you never think to find out what it was all about, and why it was...

You mean it went all the way from Goodwood to Donny dribbling fuel?:ohmy: It better not have spilt any over my garden!

Was the Amex designed with rugby in mind, or is it only big enough because Gus wanted the largest possible pitch?

I thought that was his beer gut! I also well remember him from those Clifton coach trips in the late 1970s so was concerned to learn on NSC around 2010 that he was quite poorly. RIP Big Nick.

Indeed, and shows the folly of urging on teams at this stage of the season, i.e. it looks as though Reading might be more of a threat. Better that these matches are drawn so that both teams drop two points.

You can get a reduction on a new handset by applying for what's known as a PAYG upgrade, and the conditions are pretty lenient. The deal I want only requires that... Virgin Media upgrades It must be 6 months since joining Virgin Media or 6 months since last upgrade. Customer must have used...

If you stitched them all together, would there be enough to make the sail you mention?

Any error of judgement wouldn't be the club's. I imagine there is a contract in place that allows Sodexho to trade at set times, so all the club can do is request them to suspend service for as many minutes as they think appropriate.

TBF, Kidderminster is right on the other side of the south midlands from Soham :)

Well we know that! The question is, why is everyone in England and Wales outside of striking distance of Barnsley denied the chance of watching a match at Conference regional level or above?

It's a struggle to keep this thread on Page 1! There were several promising responses in the first hour last night but since then, nothing, despite it being bounced early lunchtime.

A better London analogy would be if Millwall, Charlton, Dagenham, Orient and West Ham were all at home at the same time. Has that ever happened?

I've never seen that GIF before; can't believe s/he did a 3-point turn just to avoid mounting the pavement!

It's non-stop rain in Vegas?:ohmy:
