Oh, and Gary Bull didn’t play in either game, he left Barnet 12 years before those fixtures to join Forest.... November 1989, 2-0 FA cup, knew I wasn't going mad...

I remember a very fiery, passionate exchange with a non City fan about Andy Cole....I can’t remember how it came up but this guy was absolutely adamant that Andy Cole was ‘the young white fella’ - we obviously told him he’d got the wrong guy but he was insistent and went on and on about it....then he eventually came out with the gem ‘You are all wrong, Andy Cole is the young white guy who used to play for West Ham’ - the look on his face when I solemnly said ‘That was Joe Cole mate..’ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now where have I heard that name before? On the 41st anniversary of Spurs 9 Gas 0 you superbly trump that by bringing up the great Joe (10 past roverzzz) Payne - well played Sir! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There isn’t much to suggest a travelling army of visiting fans, so yes, could well be! The loco, if I’ve read the number correctly, was withdrawn from service in1958 when it was based at Goole (25c). Nice placement of the gas holders! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie Hitler Posted October 23, 2018 Report Share Posted October 23, 2018 A quick perusal of related companies: DWANE DEVELOPMENTS UK LIMITED Not a lot going on here; first required accounts filing 30 September 2019. WIZTEK LIMITED Now this is odd. The company is 100% owned by Hani Al Qadi but without apparently trading it now has losses of £1.0m which are covered by a debt to to Hani Al Qadi. There is nothing dodgy about this, it's just odd and why would you want to do it? My guess is that an asset valued at £1m and currently owned by a AQ company will be transferred into it. The land, or part of the land, for the "training ground" is the obvious candidate. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post PHILINFRANCE Posted October 23, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 23, 2018 Barnet fans looking forward to Rovers visiting fans and their 'anthem'. One negative for me, though. That bloody Irene song. I HATE Goodnight Irene. It's got to be THE most uninspirational of all football songs. Do they sing it just to send the opposition players and fans to sleep? I shall stand right next to our drummer in the hope he bangs the drum loud enough to drown that bloody awful song from my ears. 3 30 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This claim began with the sensible suggestion of you becoming King; which is most certainly possible. But finding somebody prepared to PAY for Wales is just going too far, Rudolf. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Bill Posted October 23, 2018 Report Share Posted October 23, 2018 A wonderful quote from Marcus Stewart, "The team is doing a great job when we have'nt got the ball and we are out of possession". Yes, well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
