March 11, 201610 yr Thanks for posting these Sweep, the coloured one my favourite. I wonder if any BWFC fans there that day still alive? Would love to hear the tale from Barnestoneworth whites grandad. Sadly he's no longer with us, but every time it cropped up on the telly or in the papers, he would say I was there. Unfortunately he wasn't one for chittle-chattel or going into detail with things so I never got chapter and verse of the day.
March 11, 201610 yr Miami ran a charra down there. Threepence with a much sasprella as you could supp. Got smashed off our tits with junior aspirin and wasted Wrexham on the Chester toll road.

Shame your grandad never gave chapter n verse, folk from that era weren't much for talking same for my grandma.
March 11, 201610 yr Where is this? Are you asking because you know? Or because you don't? Either way I'll go for one of the Sheffield clubs or Bradford.

March 11, 201610 yr Apparently they opened the gates for the king and he legged it in for free. Typical of those free loading shape shifting parasites.
March 11, 201610 yr Correctimundo Described as "near Manchester" It's nearer to Manchester than the majority of their supporters.
March 12, 201610 yr The cost for the enclosure was 3/- (15p for moderns) and the average price of tickets was 22p. Doesnt that ticket above say £1 1 shilling?
March 12, 201610 yr Doesnt that ticket above say £1 1 shilling? Yes but it is for a seat and not a terrace ticket.
March 12, 201610 yr OT? Correctimundo Described as "near Manchester" Is that the Warehouse Project place behind the stand behind the goal?
March 12, 201610 yr Is that us rushing the OB in the bottom photo? The lad in the wheelchair looks like a young Stephen Hawking leading the youth into the fray! The lad in the centre looks about to land a left hook on the copper.
