Nantwich/Crewe is North West. Alsager & Audlem are Midlands. There's only about 4 miles between them but the distinction is very clear. Stokies are a breed apart. Stoke & its five fckg towns are holes ... & not in a good way. It will please all to know their wages must be the lowest I've ever witnessed ... including the Welsh Valleys & Middlesbrough.

I loved the place, had digs in Hanley and the town was buzzing on a Monday night, never seen as much talent in the bars and pubs, Newcastle up the road was the same on a Wednesday.

leigh white Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 I think it was only the local dickheads what kept Vale ticking over with such poor attendances in the 80s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Granadaland has often encroached. The population of North East Wales is about 40% English and they shop & work in Chester, Wirral, Manchester & Merseyside. They support Everton & Stretford ... & a bit of Liverpool with Wrexham sometimes their team but even then they have a "second team". Come round there & look at the TV aerials & 90% point to Winter Hill. Otherwise they're getting news stories from Merthyr & Neath & Cardiff which means f'call to them. It only joins together as a nation for the Rugby otherwise they hate each other. But, when the Assembly was created there was a push to establish airwave boundaries & so BBC NWest & Granada were ordered to keep out and a lot more TV relay masts were built. So the old Clwyd area is no longer covered on NW tv. Racism really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Gee Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 I have never seen us lose a match against Port Vale, started going in 1989. We must have a better record against Port Vale than any other team we have faced on a semi regular basis. Played 36 Won 24 Drawn 10 Lost 2 And the 2 defeats came 50 days apart in 1988 (FA Cup and a league match). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted December 1, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted December 1, 2020 Saw both them defeats. Glenn Keeley scored in the home game. The away game was Dave Higson going on about playing until 5 o’clock. Ended up in a punch up in the terrace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
