Such an unlucky deflection off Howley but it’s down to us to start shooting and stop tip tapping around the area, chances will come I’m sure.

Like the team and pleased Robins has stuck with young Howley kid deserved to be picked.

You are correct I looked the other week for a return train ticket to Euston and was quoted £147 absolute joke, can get one for about half that but where does £147 come from got the same job. Country is a joke.

Is Walker in-form then ? and please don’t mention last weeks tap in.

And I believe Bristol have a billionaire Bristol City loving owner.

I think that centre half they have loaned in from West Brom can’t remember his name is the second highest earner at Albion, good player actually kept our Vic a bit quieter than most.

Mind you I’ve just checked and high speed train Madrid to Barcelona takes 2 hours and if I’ve read it right costs just 4.5 euros, if that price is correct I think we would fill a few trains. Just checked that price again and it says £12/16 euros for a 1.5 hour trip, still miles cheaper than here.

Big distances though between the teams about 500 km Madrid and Barcelona, Valencia v Barca at about 250 mile might be considered local Sevillia/Barca nearly a 1000 Our longest trip this year is Sunderland at 200 mile. Be interesting to know how many Real or Barca fans go to what is their grudge...

I read a while back that Norwich along with WBA are desperate for promotion this season Norwich apparently have seven players on well over £30k a week wages and one I’m assuming Puki on £40k the rest won’t be on a pittance either. Albion have a lot on similar high wages don’t know how many...

What about fans who wore a multitude of opposing teams scarfs over their shoulders that they had robbed off rival fans a bit like Indian scalps.

You couldn’t make it up we get linked with Coleman, who was a bloody good player, Southgate who became an England regular, I’m sure we were, Rufus another decent player but end up with Richard Shaw ffs ! For ten bloody years. Good servant but ten years ?

That day at Blackburn was meyhem it was Easter Saturday Blackburn fans tried it on but about 2.30 thousands of Cov came in all round the ground off the trains lots of older ones first proper football fighting I seen Blackburn lot didn’t know what hit them our lot battered them we won 1-0 to put...

Want more than a point from those two.

I remember that think the story had just broke and the West End gave it to him all match non stop.

One of a few record attendance involving Stoke City because they had the player deemed at the time to be the best in the world Stanley Matthews

Another huge ground Hampden Park again nearly all terracing.

Massive, went there mid sixties couldn’t believe how steep the terraces were.

The Kop at Blues was massive, was on there once when all conquering Leeds were their gate was well over 50k. The Kippax at Main Road was also huge, 84000 was their record gate most in the Kippax.

Moving away fans to the North Stand will never happen for all sorts of logistical reasons a main one is most of the police and security are at the South end of the ground inside or out.

Frank Worthington !! What a great player he was.
