I never realised that we had played in blue and white hoop shirts, I’m not a fan….
The hooped socks are passable, but the hooped shirts look awful.
Just look at that Centre Parting…..
Do you know him?
He will be about 80 if he is still going …..
Did you know him Walton ??
Bunch of mugs.
It's slightly off centre but nobody told him.
Filled with soup!!
I’m on that video when JT scored, an utterly marvellous night all round. I suspect most younger supporters wouldn’t entirely understand what a great season that was, after all we only came second in the 4th division!
You have to understand what came before, the re election, the ground being almost condemned after the Safety in Sports Grounds Act, the floodlights being totally condemned, park players playing, players on trial coming and going, crowds of 2,000. I went to virtually every game home and away that season, we packed out away ends everywhere and in some grounds it was dangerously full - Stockport springs to mind on a Monday evening. I loved every second of it.
John McGrath should have a statue.
Is this a Wallace and Gromit reference?
Stockport away was indeed on a Monday night and a 3-1 win, after losing at home on the Saturday. I think Oshor Williams got one or possibly two of our goals against his former club. Remember it well as it was a local game for me.
Was thinking Stockport away was a Thursday. Went with my dad who was bored by football and couldn't wait to leave.
