Back then it was creatures ... Spurs - ****erels, Millwall - Lions, Norwich - Canaries, Wolves, Watford - Hornets. Unfortunately we got shot down by The Gunners :cool: This time we have Occupations ... Bristol Rvrs - Pirates (or Gas Heads!!), Northampton - Cobblers, Luton - Hatters, Ipswich - Tractor Boys and now Fish fiddling gypsies, tramps and thieves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JRM Posted 25 January, 2010 Share Posted 25 January, 2010 On a similar topic, when was the last time we had this many cup games in a season? my guess is 1992 when we got to ZDS cup final and FA Cup 1/4 final (with lots of replays on the way) So far we have : Carling Cup Northampton Birmingham JPT Torquay Charlton Norwich MK Dons away MK Dons home FA Cup Bristol Rovers Northampton Luton Ipswich Pompey if we get through against MK and the skates that would take us up to 60 games for this season!!

Wurzel Posted 25 January, 2010 Share Posted 25 January, 2010 On a similar theme (was going to start a new thread but can't.) If we beat MKD will we also set a new record as the ONLY team ever to have played in ALL five domestic professional finals ? FA Cup League Cup Charity Shield Zenith Data Systems /Simod Whatever other names it had Cup Johnstones Paint / LDV / Football League/ Whatever other names it had Trophy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
