No relation - just a weird coincidence.
Apparently - but my dad says he doesn't even remember that
Oh well.
i was going to ask her to marry me.I doubt i'll bother now....
Hang on.......I think I just heard the sound of her heart breaking

Fuck it. I'm saying Mick Stead. Only played 15 times between 1975 & 1978.
Is that Stuart Beavon there as well?
He was another prospect that just disappeared
I have his autograph as well somewhere
Paul Bowgett was another one
Never heard of him!
hahaha not sure why i remember him.It was another day down the training ground, and i got his autograph.He was supposedly some promising youngster....
I was certain that this was common knowledge on this forum, not that
Blanchflower
mentions it a lot. Fairly sure there was a thread or part of one on it.Thought it was up there with where
jimmyriggle
lives, Carlos Brigante’s golden folder, and Maria’s topless photo. (One for the old ‘uns on here).

It's ok I have one
makes interesting viewing
Not many of that team would play in the modern game, based on that game

I thought it was Carlos Brigante's coat?
Ah, but back in those days there was no rotating squads the same players played. Every league game, (42) back then and every cup game bar injuries. The tackling was a lot tougher and no diving cunts about. Wonder how today's players would get on against the hard enough back then.
Still love watching our current team though.
Get ready for a Blizzard of Funnies, Agrees and Likes on all your (brilliant of course) posts
While we frantically go around deleting all the Disagrees that we might have stupidly hit you with in the past
:hugoshock:
(PS - Got any spares for Chavski away???)
No pens in FA cup ties either. And none of this nonsense about Plod needing 10 days for a replay. Sat-Weds-Sat-Weds...tough titty!!
On the "no diving cunts" bit - have you forgotten Franny Lee? I remember him also punching the ball into our net in the 1970's. Feck me, VAR would have had a field day with some of the stuff that went on.
Ah yes, you’re right there. So was it Carlos’s or Joe Clash’s golden folder?
I think the teams of back then would get mullered on fitness alone but when you look at the ball control and passing accuracy you can see that the overall skillset has increased phenomenally since then. The stand out players like Greaves and Dave McKay I think would adapt but most of the others just didn't possess the skills required today.
It all a nonsense anyway as it ignores the 60s team from having modern training, diets and science
Do you think so? I think defending has got better ,and as you said fitness.But the skillful players back then had to contend with wearing boots that were nowhere near as comfortable as today,and kicking a ball that (especially when wet) was like toe punting a cannon ball.Go back a few years before that,and the boots were like drill boots.
I sometimes think we don't give some of them old players the credit they deserve.
