3spirit Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Does anyone remember 'Ripping Yarns' tv programme? One of the episodes features a Yorkshireman called Gordon Ottershaw [played by Michael Palin] who is obsessed by his local non-league football team, Barnstoneworth United, that he has named his son after the team and gets his son to do homework on naming various Barnstoneworth teams through the ages ! Barnstoneworth United play in the fictional Yorkshire Premier League, a once successful team they have become the whipping boys of the division, losing every game. Gordon goes home after every lost match to his long suffering wife and smashes up all the furniture at home ! I'm sure every Slough fan recognises the Gordon in them ! lol !

michaelSTFC Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Yes 3Spirit, that was a great episode, has crossed my mind many a time after a Slough defeat. We've gone through a lot of furniture and doors over the years ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
