Remember it well. It was a much bigger version of the east terrace at the Goldstone and not in good nick with weeds growing up through the gaps in the concrete.
The underrated Malcom Poskett hit a hat trick at the Valley.
Was anyone else on the charter train that got stranded at Corby on the way to the Forest league cup tie?

Really sad. Saw the Specials in 78/79 at the Worthing Assembly Hall. I was fairly near the front and could swear that he was looking directly at me when he was singing ’where did you get that blank expression on your face’

Recruitment has been excellent in recent times, however, there may come a time when constant churn swings the pendulum the wrong way. Glass half empty and a word of caution.

If I remember rightly he scored against us when we beat Wednesday 3-2 in a night game which saw us get promoted to DIV 1.
Without doubt the best atmosphere ever in the North Stand. The surges crushed the air...
