Pretty good. 24 years and going strong.
I'd actually popped the question weeks before, we were just announcing to her folks but she regards it as our formal engagement date. Dropped her off at parents near Wycombe, M40, quick dash to pub, game, quick pint afterwards, dash back to discover all her family there so take your point re dark mood if we'd lost. Not sure I'd thought that through.
Robinson goals was yet another win there. This was Shearer (2), Simpson and (I think) Foley. At that point we had far and away the best record of any long-standing derby in the entire league. 3 defeats on the trot have dented that record. God I hate those tossers.
Not really long standing though is it? I remember the first games v Oxford, and how when they managed to get themselves into the league, we gave them a couple of players to help them out in neighbourly fashion.
Some of us had an active dislike of Bristhole, before Oxford were even a league club, spomething passed down by fathers and grandfathers.
