On This Day (13th Feb) (Canning Special)

[Trigger]

Well, here we are again with this Canning special On This Day, today it's back 19 years to 1988 and those tight shorts, once again the Albion were romping to a victory (yes, it did used to happen, honest) but more importantly Number 1 in the charts was... I Think We're Alone Now by Tiffany, a song that can still be heard on many trains up and down the country on Albion away days...

Enjoy...

I remember that game, we went 3-0 up and they almost got it back to 3-3.

Pissed down all afternoon as well (got soaked standing on the East Terrace)

 

[Commander]

Good work, Trigger.

 

[Mendoza]

We may have to sing the canning in the ground, it may get the team going

Go on Roc.....

 

[The Wookiee]

I got thrown out of the south stand after being a bit mouthy to some of our West Country friends

 

[hornet]

Oxford in Div 1, I'd forgotten how they've gone from top division to Conference in less than 20 years.

 

[Zesh Rehman]

Oxford in top league, shocking

and Wolves in bottom league, shocking

 

[FalmerforAll!**]

Palace lose AGAIN!
