Fingers crossed they will fuck off else where and leave proper football people in this country to get things back as they were. I'm all for reintroducing Saturday 3pm kick off's, standing on terracing, shirts numbered 1 to 11, goal average, no more than five stewards in the ground, the occasional pitch invasion....... I could go on all night. This new cunt at Liverpool has just been on Sky News and stated he won't be at tomorrows Merseyside Derby because he thinks it better for fans to share the first experience with them at a home game WTF.

Bye bye Torres and Gerrard. The Red Socks were famous for selling Babe Ruth and then winning fuck all for 90 years

And football specials. I wonder what British Rail do with all their shagged out rolling stock now they cant fill it full of hoolies and claim the insurance when it gets wrecked. I still have a ticket for a special to Leicester in the early 70s where the fare is 17p return.
In light of this weekends Leeds v `boro game we were reminising at work today about past visits to Ayresome Park. Without fail the train always got bricked as it slowed down just outside the station and we had to travel back freezing our tits off in a train with no glass in it.

The year Carlisle played in the top division the football special from Leicester was £ 2 return.
Bricking's only ever seem to take place on cold days's. I remember coming back from QPR on a freezing cold Boxing Day with no window's left in the bus.

I remember doing the stadium tour at the old Garden just before they closed it and moved it to the new Garden next door. In the home locker room shared by the Bruins and the Celtics there were 2 exit doors. 1 was 6`-6" high and 4` wide for the ice hockey players t`other was 7`-6" high and 2` wide for the basketball players. True story.

On the train down nobody seemed to know anything about the reception we would get when we got to Leicester. Were the police organised to handle 700 idiots arriving together on 1 train. Did Leicester have any fans who would fancy a ruck. Where was the ground etc etc Because of the unknown there was a bit of apprehension as the train arrived. Everybody charged off the train, through the station and into the street. We answered all our questions. There were about 4 police who scattered sharpish. About 10 Leicester fans who scattered even quicker and we could see some ground in the distance. Pretty cock sure of ourselves we marched through the streets to the ground thinking this was easy. At the ground there was an open gate guarded by 2 old Legion guys. We stormed the gate thinking we had all got in for free and were going to make a pretty impressive appearance mob handed only to find ourtselves on the rugby pitch at Wheldon Road. We did a quick circuit of the ground and charged back out to look for the right location.
