Clubs go on so much about the pot of gold that is the Prem, and about the parachute payments should they fail but just look at how many ex-prem teams have tumbled down the leagues and into financial crisis.
I'd rather keep our club sustainable and built so that a poor season could not bring the...
Actually it's the old Stanmer School building.
About the same distance as the Uni carparks but you wouldn't have the subway or steps to cope with.
The approach road goes under a small and narrow bridge. I suppose, as vehicles will be traveling in the same diection, this might work ok.
My DD has not been taken AGAIN but no probs, I'm near to Queens Road....except the ticket office there is closed until further notice as ticket staff are all at the stadium dealing with season tickets.
Having got a few wrong (on the oither thread), I will state what's left of my reputation in that it IS Tony Towner in the 72/73 pic. He was a youth teamer but broke into the side, rooted to the bottom of the league, in january and had a pretty good start.
As for the 60's pic in front of the...
Powney, Dalton, Everitt, Napier J, Gilliver, Turner, Wilkinson, Sidebottam
Henderson, Smith, Blackburn, Lawton, Dawson, Napier K, Spearritt.
All from memory but reckon it's right. Freddie Goodwin's team and an early fav of mine, especially Kit Napier and Alex Dawson.
I loved the late 60's and even moreso the 70's, but | was a young lad and footie was made for us.
The 80's were a low time, as the crowds show and, for me, it was struggling with a young family and unemployment.
I love footie again now, mostly due to Gus & the Amex, but, even at Withers, I...
Tha's real tough, Tony, and a typically cowardly act so here's hoping that at least one of the gang is also feeling the worse for wear.
It's at times like this I almost feel glad to live in sleepy Lower Bevendean....where a guy was stabbed and killed this morning.
He was gone long before Mullery but was here under Clough.
Peter taylor sold him to exeter as part of the deal that brought Fred Binney to the Goldstone.
I was up there today and the only advantage is that it's so easy to cross OSR to BAHSVIC.
Seems no urgency at all. You would have thought, with the road totally closed, they'ed crack on & do it.
I was there for the LC game and believe they were doing well in the division below us (2 rather than 3).
Dire place and pubs still closed in the afternoons and it was early closing day anyway (another old tradition up north) so we had a few hours with nothing to do & nowhere to go.
We did get...
Those low Goldstone gates had a fair bit to do with many not wanting to put money into the hands of those thieving bastards.
As for theschoolboy game, poor Gus, if he watched, must dispair. He's been in England a good few years and say's our game has not developed at all and so true watching...
