Ah Pete Lewis against Bolton I'm sure it got featured on the Big Breakfast the following morning. Ahhh.... the memories are flooding back. The ever dashing Gaby Roslin always ensured I had semi as I trotted off to school all those years back. As for the game in question was McMuck or someone sent off in it? I'm sure that dopey c*** Jason McAteer played a part as well. I'm not sure it was the game in question, but I recall the game when Mcmahon got the red....he did the now dodgy studs showing single foot challenge, it was a dirty wet night and the pitch was soggy....he ploughed a furrow fit for a team of medieval oxen. MacAteer tripped over the divot. Cunts then scored a winner in the last minute....was it Wanker John? I wont be too unhappy to see them get relegated....funnier had it been Newcastle, mind |

Looked like a red from where I was sitting mind. Can't remember the result or the scorer if you're correct |

Didn't one of the Wovers blokes get sacked for calling Gary Flitcroft Gary "Flipflop"

Nevertheless came within 13 mins of a cup final, and wouldn't have gone down except for it being 4 down, rather than the usual 3. Winning 5-2 at the Hawthorn's was fun too. |

That Bolton game :evil: Couldn't see 1/3 of the pitch thanks to the Supermarket at our end. Snow, 2nd attempt, and that fucking announcer.
I remember the Pete Lewis game as well, we outplayed them and then some, wasn't it the same season we mullered Reading 0-1 as well? or am I mixing them up? We started that season so well, Fjortoft and Scott scoring goals, decent football etc. Still can't get my head around how we managed to get ourselves relegated.
Music after goals is horrific, Middlesborough being the worst offenders as their fans have now been fully trained like dogs in responding to their goal music.

On a tangent, one of the better recent additions to the football experience was the Wolves mascot having a full on scrap with the Coldseal 3 Little Pigs when Wolves played at Ashton Gate a number of years back.

One of the most bizarre seasons in living memory. I remember the opening game at home to Port Vale, sitting in a brand new 'Intel' Stand and thinking 'this is going to be easy'. How wrong.

My memory of that is being in the new Intel, thinking this is going to be shit, I want my terrace back. There were still 4 or 5 of us then all sat in a line....so you could only talk to the kiddy next door. Gone were teh fellas who I only ever saw at a match who used to congregate on the half way line. We'd share flasked coffee, and someone would whack the whiskey in when it was cold... We didn't always get on, one fella being a particularly gobby sheight, but words were always forgotten next match. It didn't take long for the lot of them bar one, to drift away...just no fun any more. |

They don't want your sort at football any more, Reg. (Smiley thing, smiley thing.) This place provides a similar thing....a muster in the Merlin or CGH is decent enough, but then most people go and sit, or stand somewhere different. That kind of community spirit hasn't gone completely though, as can be seen by the number of friendships, which have developed from here. |

Reg I take a flask - Ill share my tea with you if you like? sometimes I take some cake or somehing too! That's very kind of you JFW, but where would I find you? This is my dislike of seating....on the old Shrivenham Road terrace or before that the TE, you could wander up, get straight in and go and stand with who you wanted, where you wanted. My present pet hate is getting grief from the stewards in the TE, when I'm trying to get to my spot towards the DRS....the last time, the explanation was, they have to see my ticket because it gets very crowded over there.  As I pointed out...no it doesn't. There's plenty of room for everyone in the TE. |
