I work with a Gashead that knows the guy who got done for punching a horse the day they got relegated from the Football League. I don’t know why any Saghead would think we made it up? Why would you make up punching a horse? They’re ******* massive... It’s one of the most impressive ‘dumb’ things you can do and they are impressively dumb, there’s no doubt about that. It’s up there with trying to smash a Minibus window with your head or playing a game of ‘Cricket’ that could get you on the Sex Offenders Register.

PHILINFRANCE Posted April 14, 2020 Report Share Posted April 14, 2020 4 hours ago, Norn Iron said: Re Joe Payne. This extract has been taken from Wikipedia. If we have any City fans in the Birmingham area, could photos of the plaque be taken and posted on this site (when Boris lifts the lockdown)? Payne died in Luton on 22 April 1975, aged 61.[10] On 13 April 2006, to mark the 70th anniversary of his 10-goal record, a plaque was unveiled by Geoff Thompson, then chairman of the Football Association, on the wall of the Miner's Arms public house in Manor Road, Brimington Common. The site is adjacent to the now-demolished house where he used to live, and overlooks a park where he played football. The unveiling was attended by two of Payne's nephews.[3][8] A lounge at Kenilworth Road stadium was named in honour of Payne 4 hours ago, Norn Iron said: The miracle that is googling.... and paying a £5 subscription to OTIB so I can upload! If it is the same Brimington, then I think City fans living near Chesterfield might be more able to help.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, strangely the "unnamed barman" saw her leave the pub, punch a horse outside, and then saw her back inside the pub finishing her drink - yet the CCTV didn't pick up a trace of her!

No, I think it must be the people who will build the new ground and it values Rovers at £ 7.6 million which might be what they think the Mem is worth for development now. Hopefully nothing will go wrong in the meantime and their money won't disappear down the drain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
