Wanderingred Posted June 23, 2022 Report Share Posted June 23, 2022 (edited) Before the days when mobile phones were common… I remember Scarborough fans were celebrating survival on the pitch as they thought Carlisle had drawn. It took them a few minutes to realise that they were mistaken. That must have been painful. Edited June 23, 2022 by Wanderingred Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gloucester City fans celebrating on the pitch, only to be told by the chairman that Farnborough had scored a late equaliser, thus scuppering Tigers' promotion to the conference. Bummer.

Port Said Red Posted June 23, 2022 Report Share Posted June 23, 2022 Gives me a chance to tell/retell my story about this. I was working on a training project with Frank Talia's partner who worked in one of the hotel's out at Aztec West. Of course, on our travels we would discuss various aspects including how close he was to signing for us at one time. Anyway, she told me a few things, Frank and Jimmy apparently had to pay for their own technical coach at Swindon, and that Frank apparently made more money from his coaching schools for kids than he did from the game. I think he runs these back in Oz now too. I asked if he ever fancied himself as an outfield player, she said no, he knew he was rubbish at it, but that Jimmy was always looking for an excuse to get on the outfield in training, and fancied himself as a striker. This was coming up to the Xmas of "that season", so you can imagine my reaction and how quickly I texted her when I saw this story come up! She replied, "Wishes do come true sometimes, don't they?" 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

East Yorkshire CideRed Posted June 23, 2022 Report Share Posted June 23, 2022 Was sad times in this neck of the woods, as that goal relegated Scarborough and they eventually went bust. Back on the rise again though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
