Didn't Malcolm Stuart propose to his girlfriend via a written message on the big screen at Old trafford during the early 1990's? Pretty sure she said no.
Yep she said no! Apparently Malcom use to rub her up the wrong way….

Didn't someone do it vs. Millwall at home under Hyypia? That is proper mental.

The very same guy who did the Withdean on-pitch proposing was on NSC a few weeks back.
One of the original clique - Gezza, now known on here as @The original gezza
His Dad had the NSC name of Aspinall's Arse. They both used to sit in South Stand Block C at Withdean.
A few of us on here went to the wedding.

Well I wrote the letter, and, yes it was overegging the pudding to say 25,000, maybe 20,000 were in attendance minus those not in the stands at HT. I have a feeling it was an evening game but for the life of me I can't remember who it was against. Definitely Amex, Championship. Very funny moment.

Matthew Hudson, of Garelochhead Argyll, clearly can't count.

Most of the 25000 were in the trees and on the roof of the Sportsman. You must remember, surely.

Guess that must be the one the letter writer is reffing to?

Yes. What a game to choose. That game was literally the lowest point of Amex-era football. Hyypia resigned about 9-10 days later and, let's be honest, it's been an upward trajectory ever since!

I've found it. Christ how do I remember that.

What a game to pull a stunt like that. Think it was a Friday night. We were utterly awful and Chicksen at FB looked like a competition winner rather than a pro footballer. Nasty atmosphere as the crowd turned. Paul Watson - i think - got involved.
Not that long ago but feels like a lifetime ago.

Can you remember who were the Albion playing that day?
And how did you go about getting the ok from the club? A bit of background for all those that weren't on NSC way back when!
