December 22, 201015 yr Chelsea then its the blue programe that im going off is that a red herring tho?
December 22, 201015 yr Good stuff tonight, Satan: nice to blow a few mental cobwebs away and also remember the good old days when we really were shit.
December 23, 201015 yr Thing is Traf, as shite as we may have been, our upbringing never allowed us to go and pick a different team. I feel really sorry for kids today for kids who pick Chelsea or Man U to support. Their parents won't, in most cases, ever take them to their first match. The pride will never get seen by dad as he leads his child up into the stadium. The excited child seeing his chosen team's home ground for the first time. I really do blame the parents.
December 23, 201015 yr Yes, I agree. Despite us being shit, they really were the good old days. You didn't choose your team based on Sky coverage etc: you supported the local team through thin and thin.
December 23, 201015 yr My kids didn't have a choice. And it's not their local team ( thank fcuk). That's proper parenting. Well done.
December 23, 201015 yr My kids didn't have a choice either. I've never once had to carry out my threat to make them drink a bottle of bleach if they ever uttered the words, "i support man u!"
December 23, 201015 yr Chelsea then its the blue programe that im going off is that a red herring tho? we didn't play Chelsea when we were shit
December 23, 201015 yr we didn't play Chelsea when we were shit You're obviously not as old as a lot of us then. There was a time when they didn't have a billionaire ogliarch to bankroll their climb up the league.
December 23, 201015 yr You're obviously not as old as a lot of us then. There was a time when they didn't have a billionaire ogliarch to bankroll their climb up the league. I saw us play Chelsea several times in the 70s and early 80s But we didn't play them when were in the lower divisions with Tony Kelly in the team
December 23, 201015 yr Yes, I agree. Despite us being shit, they really were the good old days. You didn't choose your team based on Sky coverage etc: you supported the local team through thin and thin. that's why we had 40k every week in the 80's
December 23, 201015 yr that's why we had 40k every week in the 80's I'm not sure about the relevance of your post. Mind you, I often think that.
