Stockport at home (1996)

[DiV]

Last game of the season 0-0, very boring. We lifted the then division two championship.
A work colleague was saying last night all his mates bet him he would go on the pitch and sit in the centre circle 5 minutes before time.
He alleges that he did it and when he was caught claimed the money was going to charity handed it over and that was that.

I certainly don't remember that and I've got a fairly good memory. Anyone have an recollection or any footage. I expect it's complete bullshit anyway but it would be nice to prove the bullshitter is full of shit.

[Ardiles]

I skipped a study course that day to be there.  Sell out crowd.  No recollection of anyone on the pitch before full time though.

[Bedford Red]

Same as Ardiles, i don't remember that at all.

[Anteater]

Even though I'd had a few that day I think I would have noticed. Sounds like B/S to me.

[eldene red]

I was there never saw that, but remember macmoan having a spat with marsden.

That was the only home game I managed to get to that season (at University and made the Northern away games instead) so that game sticks in my mind and I certainly don't remember that.

I recall the club in typical STFC style selling a load of seats in the TE to Stockport fans...who were then required to relocate elsewhere...not their fault.  I feel a bit sorry for Stockport fans...now condemned to playing fellow norvern monkeys like Oxford City.

I was there, it didn't happen

Who can remember the streaker,v Grimsby i think a few years back in green pants on St Patricks day?
Took the stewards on a merry dance.

Yep, didn't he escape as well? That was the play-off season under King, only the ten years ago now... probably my favourite season.

I was there and have no recollection of that at all!  Do remember being AT Grimsby one season when the home supporters were giving Bubbles a load of abuse over his size, he dropped his trousers and pants and mooned at them - and promptly got arrested by the local plod!!  I did hear that Bubbles had died . . . . does any know if that is true?

He got caught sadly but hilarious while he was on the loose. I think he was a St Joes pupil at the time ?

[Peter Venkman]

I was stewarding that game and nobody went on the pitch at all until after the players did their lap of honour after the game.

Boring dull game where the chief missed a sitter late on, a near full house that day too but with hardly any atmosphere, the chief gave me his shirt after the game and got all the players to sign it which is currently framed in my hallway.

In a word no. I sat at the back of the arkells by the townend and the game was so dull that a Mexican wave started,  it kept stopping at the townend side of the DRS,  to a lot of booing and renditions of "you don't know what your doing" 

[Jimmy Glass is an Alien]

I saw ballboy for that game. It's not something I can remember.
