A trip down Memory Lane..........

......Head in the Sand commented on here a couple of weeks ago that the little fellow with the perm had graced the hallowed turf of Clarence Park once before and I asked for further details. He's a helpful chap and has PMed me with the following line-up from 15 years ago. [Hands up if you were there.]

Doh!

 

Sorry about that. You may recall that I was having a little trouble with the button with arrows pointing in opposite directions beside the 'Q' on the keyboard thingy.

 

When I typed that, it was nicely columned with the scorers on the right. Why didn't it come out like that? HLMT?

 

Wor Kev didn't get on the scoreboard in an 11 goalfest.

Wasn't at that one, but I was at a game at the Park around '85/'86 which had a Dennis Waterman XI vs ex-England stars.

 

If Head In The Sand isn't too busy, maybe he could remind us who played that day too.

 

I got myself plenty of autographs - Geoff Hurst, Frank McLintock etc. - although Dennis Waterman buggered off straight after the game, the miserable sod.

 

Maybe you're right, gertcha - Ray Daley would've stuck around!!

I was there AFF!!! It was a great day. Still got the programme at home somewhere.

[gertcha EFM]

Without doubt Ray would have stuck around. That goes without saying though.

 

I was there that day to Zealster. I wonder if our paths crossed ?

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

Ray Daley would of stuck around as he has nothinig better to do. Tel would of been off to bang some bird as he was always top boy with the ladies!

 

What you want from a Minder is someone to walk in and do the job - Arthurs in bovver - round there - bish bash - sorted and home/bird/Winchester. So Waterman needed for his XI - in the park - bish bash, couple of goals - sorted - home/bird/Winchester!!!

 

Nobody respects a minder who hangs around afterwards!
