    Saw Len play at Villa Park during a time Cash was injured. Poor bugger had a horrible collision in the first half and could barely stand but he managed to hobble out for the second half (no back up keepers in them days). Had three slammed past him, but considering he was playing on one leg he did very well

    Fair play to Luton, all I remember of their last appearance in the top league was the astroturf and Mike Harford in a headband 

    Don't remember Harford in a headband, but remember Steve Foster in one

    Where were Cov and Luton in 2018 when Lee and Ashton were here, signing Liam thingy and Louis Dionky and Ryan K***,, making us a PL club in waiting?

    In the 4th bloody division. Ffs.

    Understand what you are saying but I'll take a longer view. Sunderland were relegated from the Premier League in 2018. I have a friend who is a long standing ST holder at the Stadium of Light. I texted her "see you again next season then Ange" the response "we were well and truly battered last night and would be like a lamb to the slaughter if we went back to the Premier League". 

     

    Not sure I want City in the "lamb to the slaughter" category tbh.

    I was able to get to that infamous end of season game at Twerton only because I used a work colleague's Rovers season ticket. (I hadn't been able to go to the original game that was postponed, so didn't have a ticket for the rearranged game - he was abroad on holiday having expected the season to finish the Saturday before).

    His seat was bang in the middle of their main stand. So, having successfully negotiated all the police ticket checks as a 40 year old using a 'senior' season ticket, I planned my approach of keeping my mouth shut and my real affiliation quiet. But when I got there I was greeted with all around me saying "Ah, you're the City fan with Ron's ticket...he told us you'd be here...."!!

    I don't leave games early - but that was the exception! 20 minutes or so!

    I just knew things would go horribly wrong the moment I saw Sinclair physically shaking

    Doubt this will be of interest to many, but it was 100 years ago today that a white horse called Billy (iirc) wrote himself into football folklore at the first Wembley FA Cup Final. 

    Good job The Gas weren't playing in that final
