The main difference between now and then....was that the players used to come and sup some ale with Leefer and me in the CGH before a game....now they just do it on a Friday night, and are therefore hungover |

If you look at the end of the clip you will see a young Reg being escorted of by a Town player just after the celebrations of the goal...looks like he is wearing a long donkey jacket.

There was only 17,500 there that day, I think most of us have been in bigger crowds ar the County Ground but the stands were heaving cos they were so much smaller then. |

You can just about pick Reg out at 1:11, the one in the cap halfway along the middle. Reg was shocked by that result since he had that particular team down as relegation fodder, and he had predicted a crowd of less than 7000. Check his comments out on www.yeoldetownende.com |
