  1. I popped in mid week and was surprised to see such scant stock.

     

    I had money to spend, but ending up spending just £2 on a old junior kit that theyve dug out from 2005/6 !!

     

    If there is a new shop in the stand surely that is months away, in the meantime they are going to attract next to zero income from merchandise. I wont be back again till a matchday.

  2. Published yesterday seemingly.

     

    In 1st place, Man Citeh 3 QPR 2 on 13th May 2012.

    2nd place, Arsenal 3 Stretford Rovers 2 on 9th Nov 1997. I cannot recall this game.

    3rd place, Liverpool 4 Newcastle 3 on 3rd April 1996.

     

    However, in respectable positions;

     

    16th. Aston Villa 0 Latics 1 on 2nd May 1993.

    28th. Latics 4 Southampton 3 on 8th May 1993.

     

    Remarkable to think that those two games were only 6 days apart and we had Liverpool at home [3-2 win] sandwiched inbetween. Can you imagine the moaning today from some of the big guns about their schedule.

    A year later we had 4 games in the final week, the rest is history....

  3. I watched this and Heysel unfold live on TV as an 11 year old within weeks of each other.

     

    Both forever ingrained into my memory.

     

    These obsolete Stadiums should have been modernised immediately, but it took another another disaster 4 years later

    for the penny to drop.

     

    Valley Parade not having fences was a small mercy.

  4. if the money has gone towards the stand can it start to rise from the ground or is it just the foundations we are having. at this rate I wont be sitting in there till erm erm erm erm.

     

    I thought the new stand was committed to even before the 12/13 cup run, this is the equivalant of paying back a loan shark - carries on forever and still end up owing as much as when you started.

  5. After losing at home to Man City in January 1989 we then.... (up to losing 6-3 to United on Boxing Day 1991).

     

    Lost 0 out of 10 home games - 1988/89

    Lost 1 out of 33 home games - 1989/90

    Lost 1 out of 25 home games - 1990/91

    Lost 1 out of first 12 homes games - 1991/92 (on grass)

     

    So thats 3 defeats in 80 home games.
