I started on less than that in 1970 (But I WAS an oik apprentice...)

Not at the moment, but very easily can be made so. It's not far below the interim requirement of 5000 (and I've heard JS quote it at 5000, so maybe he knows something that nobody else does. He owns the club and lease after all).

Wouldn't it just. Although I'm not sure trying to compete at Prem level without a mega-rich sugar daddy is doable (with the current rfu/prl/cvc rabble in charge at least). That way lies pain.

Yeah. Pedantry is very unbecoming 😉 Leaving school in 1970 dropped me right in it too, but the good thing is, like you I guess, I can think simultaneously in £sd and £p, and also metric/Imperial. More useful than it sounds.

They shoulda got there earlier. Me and my mate were near the front of the queue for the covered end long before the gates opened.

240 old pence to the pound...

There's a decent chance, but much depends on the RFU pillocks making up their minds. JS has pledged to bung a further substantial sum (can't really say how much on here) to fund it if the stars align. The West Stand development has also been temporarily shelved (with a temporary seated and...

Yes, sorry, I meant 22.4 pence. Duh! 😁 Ignore me. I'm high on good results.

But they won. Didn't see that fecker coming. 19-22 1-4 Brilliant.

4 shillings and 6.4 pence. Never forget the point-four of a penny 😉

My late mum used to go to every home game back then. Stood in front of the Sky Blue Stand right at the Kop end, with dad. I was in the Covered End!

I note that BBC4 commences a re-run of Early Doors tomorrow night. Some of the best tv I've seen in the last 20 years. IMO.

They'll struggle tomorrow, shorn of Dodds, Brown, and Tyas. Only good news is the return of Pellegrini. I'll watch from behind my fingers.

So the Chudley thing was definitely a red herring. Re-signed for next season. Hope it's a portent as the lad is good.

Pretty sure it's grass.

There'll certainly be a few newbies that used to go to Sharman's Cross Rd, curious to see what Prem rugby looks like. And then they realise it's not Prem rugby and drift off again. There'll also be some bloke from Nuneaton that thinks 'supporting' an American football team is cool, and will also...

I'd be surprised if they don't get the highest crowd numbers in the division. (And if they don't, they'll tell you they have). Seriously, it's a low bar, with Cov and Bedford getting 2000+ and rest mostly not much over 1000.

Great shout. Loved the Mescaleros.

My cousin's dozy wife put a post on her facebook page earlier saying RIP David and adding a pic of David Gilmour. FFS. It's bad enough losing Crosby, but Gilmour too... Silly coo.
