I went up to the game at Deepdale when we stuffed them 3-0 the day after my 20th birthday, they were dire the ground was appalling in those days, all wood and rotten, poor fans too with no vocal support.....times have changed a lot.
Charley Henry ran then ragged that day.

Surelythese kind of results now happen so often,they can no longer be described as "shocks".Now if every higher placed side were to beat their lower placed counterparts-that would be a shock

Gillingham vs Villa on ITV now.
It always makes me laugh how Gillingham's tribute to Brian Moore is a stand made out of scaffolding.

Reg, I looked that up. I reckon Preston must be one of the few teams I have never seen Swindon play.
Ex-Swindon player James Milner sticks one past the Jills!

I know the level is shit but he did score a bloody cracker last week against Wycombe, a real beauty. I think he has found his level though.

Reminds of a season we played at Blackpool..they had an old wooden away stand behind the now vacant goal....think we drew 1-1 but remember thinking Blackpool were in a dire mess at the time.

We always seem to draw 1-1 away at Blackpoo..but I think the time you are thinking of was the Bank Holiday game under Muckmarn, we took loads up there and the place looked like a building site.

I miss the old shit grounds a bit, these new grounds all look good but the atmosphere seems to be worse in virtually all of them, give me a tight crappy ground, with some cover to make it sound louder and a bit of banter with the natives!

Walsall away used to be good under cover in the corner,Aldershot also,even Colchester on the old floorboards on a Friday night always seemed atmospheric.
