Cole Not Gas Posted April 19 Report Share Posted April 19 Saw him for Burnley several times and also for Derby where he was rather petulant. Used to get kicked out of games in those days; a sorry day for Welsh football Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 'Bourne Posted April 19 Report Share Posted April 19 Went to The Vetch for a night match in the relagation season, 1980. We were stood a few rows back in one of their odd stands. A mate was innocently leaning on a fence next to the touchline. A ball went out of play infront of my mate, James comes over and without any provocation said "**** off you English b*stard". My mate was too stunned to reply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joe jordans teeth Posted April 19 Report Share Posted April 19 Let’s hope Robbie Savage doesn’t have someone posting the same things about him as the OP did in 40 years time is all I can say,thankfully I will probably be dead by then and if ww3 happens then we all be so have a good evening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristol Rob Posted April 19 Report Share Posted April 19 10 minutes ago, Kid in the Riot said: Surely you're making the point? A big loss for Welsh football, but beyond that, not so much? Might be a more significant loss to the Welsh speaking Argentinians. (Pretty sure for a while Welsh was the second or third language of Argentina, with I have a feeling was something that occurred in the early 1900s).

I think there's about a couple of thousand Welsh speakers left in Patagonia, mostly for tourism purposes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TV Tom Posted April 20 Report Share Posted April 20 Old quiz question, his name reversed used to be a goalkeeper for Man Utd & Scotland There are another two examples of this where a footballers name reversed gives you the name of another footballer, anyone know them ?
