This. Darlington at home in front of less than 3,000 is a dim and distant memory thankfully, though I get the feeling deep down the OP sometimes hankers for those days😂 (In jest THPP old boy 👍)

Respect your wide ranging opinions Gents, I was focusing more on the fact that despite his brash, extrovert exterior he’s been in the darkest place of all, and ended up taking his own life. The latest post covid UK suicide figures revealed that 5,583 people took their own lives in 2021, that‘s...

It appears that the celebrity gangster has sadly taken his own life. Obviously not everybody’s cup of tea but another sad statistic of the Mental Health epidemic in this country. 😞 There’s a touch of marmite about all of us, but I’ve met him a couple of times and he certainly was a character...

Surely isn’t nearly every club on the planet a ‘selling club’? If the price is right you have to sell 🤷‍♂️

It’s rumoured as a boy growing up in the Old Country his bedroom wall was a fusion of Messi and Jennifer Lopez posters.

Duly noted old love 👍

I did a Q and A with Teddy at the Hove Sporting Club last year, I previously had also had some negative experiences with him, but when I heard his entire story including the cortisone injections that effectively f***** his knee, his career and in turn his life, it’s clear he‘s had some issues...

And that’s the point old boy, a lot of the time it’s about how you catch them on the specific day. Not on the Cilla scale but I was once told National hero Sir Bobby Charlton wasn't that ‘fan friendly’ 🤷‍♂️

Ever the teacher HT😂, if you recall all 100 issues of Gulls Eye were riddled with deliberate spelling mistakes 😉

66 years young……… Apologies if some NSCers deem this a bit overindulgent, but Attilla (John) typifies/encapsulates the battle we fought and won for our club, a victory that without we simply wouldn’t be where we are today, travelling to play the best team in Europe, if not the planet, arguably...

Dean has to a degree been used and then spat out by the system, Amy did Celebs Go Dating (?) with him on Ch 4 and said underneath he was a really nice bloke. I met Nettles when he was doing Panto in Manchester in the mid 1980’s at the height of Bergerac and was the perfect Gentleman. Taking...

Martin Keown's Albion and full league debut (one loan from Arsenal)

From various BA people I've met she was the market leader when it came to being an A1 c***. Favoured Modus Operandi, she would sit by the window in Club or Business with the PA in the next seat and everything would be directed through the PA ms White would not speak or look at the cabin crew...

Chiv bought them all off me......:)

And a cameo in Once Upon A Time in America, one of the most underrated films in movie history. RIP

Possibly not, because of the possbile rewards. As it said in the good book, "The love money is the root of all evil" And HM Govt make far too much money out if it.

At this sad time. something a tad more positive. Talking to a senior club figure yesterday who stated he thought Gerry Ryan would comfortably be in the Albion top 50 of all time, to which I agreed, but elsewhere on this forum, my learned friend One Teddy Maybank has questioned this? So is or...

Teddy old love it is a game of opinions, but he's in my top 50 every day of the week IMHO

Penning my tribute for the paper this week, I'd probably go as far to say given his achievements and his part in our amazing story, Gerry's got to comfortably be in the top 50 greatest ever Albion players...

I once asked Harold Macmillan excuse me in order to get past him, when I was about 14 on Victoria Station.
