And John Bailey

Or the club where fans shout “up the r’s …” or something like that

They were among the worst in the 70s, and their behaviour set a bit of a benchmark for others (Chelsea for example) to aim for. They’d always come to games in droves, I remember masses of the bastards c72, and then there was our relegation match in 1974, which fortunately was a ticket match (not that a regular feature then). The first pitch invasion I recall in the national news was after they were relegated in their Man City match that season. 1975 I think they clinched promotion at The Dell which led to a pitch invasion after the game, and vaguely recall them collapsing the goal at the Archers Road end. Made 1976 all the sweeter. But the following season as you say was potential carnage.

Think we should go all out and try to sign Pauline Pogba. Of course she wouldn’t have a physical advantage over opponents and it’s only right she is allowed to compete.

Ryan Manning

Wasn’t Dean Wilkins highly rated in the coaching set up at one point ?

I had no idea we were helping players transition either. Think it might be a first in the football world.

I’m confident Pelle will snatch the winner though. Probably fluke an overhead kick or something.

Fucking hell …. forgotten him. His time at Saints is most certainly “scar tissue”

Fraser was very good in the championship, scored some important goals. Hull away provided a memorable last minute celebration. Holgate on the other hand…. Many said he was crap on signing, and he lived up to expectations, possibly exceeding them.

Followed by no goals in 11 appearances at Salford (according to Wikipedia) in second half of season. So not overwhelming. But as pointed out on the Kane thread, no one expected much of him after his loan spells.

Must definitely be knocking at the door for a chance. I read that he’s turned 21 though, so not a complete youngster. Seems now is the time to give him a go. If not he’ll be on loan next season and following Ballard’s route out.

That could be his ‘goal music’ … just to piss the away fans off.

That should cause a bit of an obstruction if 3,000 of them are coming down the M1 for the match.

Won’t be anything your legendary DEF won’t cope with.
