My Dad recently attended, greeted people for and sat through a funeral before realising he was a day early (coincidentally the deceased had the same name as the person who’s funeral he was supposed to be attending) and the one he was due to attend was the following day.
Also involving my Dad...
Super kings for a while as a teenager. The extra length provided the best value for my dinner money. Started on Sovereigns though, they were around £1-50 for ten back then.
I’ve always gone through periods of smoking followed by not smoking and been able to just stop when I wanted to. The three...
Thanks for starting this post, I’ve enjoyed reading the replies.
I have a 9 year old and a 5 year old. Before the youngest was born I was really torn. I didn’t want the eldest to be an only child, but I really didn’t want to have to do it all again. Having said that, those thoughts were long...
i didn’t think it was even a foul at the time, certainly not a red. But then I watched RDZ as BG walked off, didn’t look at him or move to console him. So I accept that he presumably thought it was a red.

Glory days indeed, somehow a bottle of champagne appeared on our journey home!
I remember Leon Knight going over as he celebrated, did McCammon go over as well?
It’s a funny place, Stoke. On the train to Liverpool for an Everton game a few years ago and a large amount of people got on at Crewe. The scouse couple that we were having a chat with told us that they were mostly from Stoke and that the city empties on weekends because it’s so dull!
I was invited to leave the ground at halftime by some very polite and helpful stewards, for being a silly teenager (2005 I think?). Swiftly followed by a mate. We’d been drinking snakebite the whole way up. We made our way into that Harvester, somehow, as the car park outside the away end was...
I remember spending a large part of the journey up tearing a yellow pages into a carrier bag to be thrown onto the pitch before the game!
As you say, a woeful game of football.
Some absolute screamers in there (haven’t bothered watching the non Albion ones 😁)
Hard to pick, but I’d have to choose Enciso v Man City as a) I was at that game and I can’t think of a better goal and match that I’ve ever seen live, b) the reaction of a large proportion of City fans, stunned...
Can’t draw another team from the same country until the quarters, so no Liverpool or West Ham but could get Rangers.
Nothing to stop us getting Marseille again.
