Good stuff. Nice to hear something positive.

I think it was actually 1983 and they put seating where the Kop terracing used to be and it looked awful, absolutely dreadful. That was when the crowds dropped very dramatically too and HR lost an awful lot of character.

Trying to find a photo. Do you not remember the Kop when it was all seated in 1981 or whenever it was? It looked awful and it was most definitely NOT an improvement.

Improved? Errr ... at times, most definitely not.

Totally agree, OSB.

Yes, but it was a very obvious dig. OSB said it wasn't all rose-tinted at HR and I agreed. No-one said the Ricoh was buzzing and Torch knows I prefer the Ricoh, so it was an obvious dig, so I just replied to that. ;) The problem I had with HR was that I had been going up since the late 60's...

No, I agree, but some have tried to paint HR as this wonderful place where it was all sunshine and smiles. I've been to plenty of games where HR has been half empty and soulless. Load of bad times there too. That's the rose-tinted bit I am on about. I don't know why Torch brought the Ricoh...

Nope, the Ricoh is like a library. Only buzzed about 5 or 6 times in its history. :(

But getting someone interested in the club is going to be so much easier if the club is successful and we are putting bums on seats.

Totally agree, OSB. Very rose-tinted. I too have some great memories of HR, but then some pretty dreadful memories as well. It could be like a library most of the time.

I've had away fans sit next to me in the past. I don't mind it as long as they don't celebrate too wildly. Nowt worse than having your nose rubbed in it at your own ground.

Sleeping with the fishes.

“You have to have a calmness and aggression about you and play the game – go and win your individual battles and not get sucked into a scrap, which is maybe not our strength." TM I wouldn't doubt for a single second that the game will indeed be a scrap unfortunately.

Could be worse, he could go up every year to where Highfield Road used to be at 4.45 on the anniversary of our last game there. ;) Unless of course Paul Sheehy IS CJ! :D

No streams, but we have been sold down the river.

We need to get him in the gym for this Sunday. Give him 3 tones of Whey Protein.

Would say it best that you don't go on Sunday then. You're a jinx!
