Those stripes are showing one or two paunches.
I'd wager the picture was taken prior to pre season training proper.

Yeah I recall A/W more a squad player. Ian painter hit the bar for Stoke v us at the old Stoke ground. [Victoria Ground if memory serves right] had he scored , that'd have been our first relegation from Division 1 .

That guy with his right foot near the ball would have been a big help yesterday someone to tell it how it is. Played it not to lose.

Thought they'd all overdone the mascara.

We were a proper team then.

Managers, players and fans united.

And our HR.

Far Gosford street boozers.

I'm welling up here!

 

[chiefdave]

Have we even had a squad photo this season?

The spirit in the team compared to the season before was simply amazing . not the greatest of players but , the greatest team spirit .

Not recruited in time CD, that's how it feels anyway.

Those paunches my friend, are allowed if you have the kind of team spirit, guts and bollocks that this team possessed.

Was at the Victoria Ground, think it was a Friday night. Awful game and I recall it was 2 penalties in the last 5 minutes or so. As you say Painter missed theirs and we scored ours. Otherwise it was goodnight Vienna. Victoria Ground was a right old shithole.
