I wouldn't have known about the windows.

I was hoping for some Burnley and Sunderland guesses. I must try harder.

It’s the odd things you remember about grounds that stick in the mind

Gay Meadow, Shrewsbury. If you could look over the wall at the other side of the pitch you may see a bloke on the river  in a big floating basket trying to catch footballs.

See if this was a Carry On film:

Peter Butterworth: "they used to get the balls back using on of them little boats"

Sid James: "That's coracles..."

PB: "no, it's true..."

Barbara Windsor saunters past.

SJ: "I'd paddle out to retrieve those two bouncing beauties....yak, yak, yak...."

Iirc, the other semi was spurs v wolves.

Out of all of those teams Ipswich were by far the better team at the time, can't remember the other 3 being owt special at the time.

Crush at Leppings Lane Spurs v Wolves match. No lessons learned.

2 league titles in 100 years, 7 league titles in 12 years

I meant there seems to be a misconception that city had a poor support and no history till the oil money came in.

Obviously the oil money has bought success and a shit load of 'fans' with it. But they were hardly Bournemouth.

You’ll do well to get 2 titles by 2113 to be fair.
