  1. RIP to the worlds best ever footballer. Not second, not third but THE BEST. A true LEGEND.
  2. Nailed on, we give the away teams points start. As an ex Eastender of the 60's, I cringe when I see the Atyeo nowadays in a key match.
  3. In my day, Harry Dolman was the only millionaire I knew. Now, even boot boys at Prem Clubs are millionaires ?
  4. Usual shit draw, Swansea,
  5. To the tune of Robin Hood : Borehamwood Borehamwood going to the Mem Borehamwood Borehamwood smashing Barton's Men Loved by us Reds, Loved by all good Borehamwood Borehamwood Borehamwood.
  6. RIP Ronnie, glad you were remembered by the club. One of the best goals I have seen in 60+ years of watching football.
  7. why oh why do we let teams attack after 89 minutes ?????
  8. i tried that one, ab crap, did hesgoal for about 30 minutes then it started buffering, 1969 we landed men on the moon ?

  11. Well done Tommy.............................................WE WANT MORE ?
  12. stuff all that. im off to the mem in their tent, will actually feel like you are there ?
  13. After starting to watch and support City in 1958, my ups and downs of following this club are probably similar to many others. An Eastender in my teens, moving North with old mans job and following Sheff Wed but still keeping an eye on the club ( No internet then) going to Elland Road when Gary Sprake was sent off, moving back to Bristol at 19, taking missus on 1st date to watch a match, sponsoring supporters club with my business in the 70's, Crackers corner v Pompey to get promotion, watching Norman Hunter debut at Baseball Ground, watching fall and rise of my beloved 1982 club ! ST holder all around the ground till this season when for 1st time in a long time did not renew.............No particular reason, 72 this year, getting weary, medical probs for last year with vertigo. Am I still a fan ? I'm on OTIB on a match day.......the flame is still and will always be there.
  14. Yep, as my name suggests, Dad used to stand at back of the terracing and I stood on a wooden stool he built me with my back against the front of the old stand or Cowshed as twas known.
  15. cant remember us saying that about Trevor Jacobs or Donnie Gillies when they went to play for the Gas........Idiots
  16. If we start going adrift at the bottom say by October, thats the time
  17. Mate, we have taken decades of false hope to earn that title at least the Canaries have seen the Prem !!!
  18. I work at Bristol Airport as a dispatcher. Fun when I see a guy in quarters about to board aircraft and I tell him he cant fly ! Always reply ' Why' ' cos you'll have to take that shirt off !! ' You're obviously a Sh*thead is the reply. Good banter though. Other day saw a guy in new City top and said ' great shirt ' to him, he didnt understand a word I said. ?
  19. Others are available ie Crosse and Blackwell ?
  20. It could well have been , its such a long time ago and I was 8 ! It obviously kept my interest and if I knew then what I know now, who knows what could have happened ?
  21. Hi there , still around but sadly not renewed as working up the airport now ( at 71 !) and only saw 5 games last season. My first was in 1958 v Leyton Orient when dad had made a small wooden stool for me and I stood with my back to the cowshed ( now the Dolman) Hence my name !!
