Diego_Sideburns Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 A great read on 'The Inside Left' site. Brings back lots of memories and describes BP highlights vividly for those too young to have experienced some of them. http://theinsideleft.com/supporting-oldham-athletic/#respond Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes a decent stab at verbalising the unverbalisable - the moment when Gerrard hit the bar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewBlue Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Really, really enjoyed the nostalgic section. For people who are too young to have experienced those years it was brilliant yet cruel to know it probably won't happen again... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philliggi Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Football has seen many twists and turns over the years. One can only hope we see another major turn somewhere along the line which makes it possible once again for small clubs to succeed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookersstandandy Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 A cracking read. I've often wondered if my recollection of those times was blurred by my youth, but it really did feel much more of a level playing field. Big Town and City clubs [birmingham, Cardiff, Swansea, Bolton, Huddersfield, Fulham, Burnley, Blackpool] were in the bottom 2 tiers, with Small Town or 2nd City teams [Latics, Luton, Swindon, Port Vale, Bristol Rovers, Notts County] and even Village [ref Wimbledon] clubs competing in the Top 2 tiers. This feels much less prevalent today sadly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manshaw Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 The Premier League and Sky TV have changed the football world forever; for the worst. Wonderful memories! One of the main reasons why. 1- I would never pay my money to watch a premiership club, and 2 will never pay any money to sky tv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
