leeslover Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 You saw Chris Taylor’s first goal. And saw a merchandising opportunity in it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garcon Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 you haven't got home at 6 in the morning from southampton because a barlows coach had 2 punctures. I was on that coach! Sat a row or two back from the driver ... all I'm saying is it's a good job he managed to hold on - and that the coned off lane was empty - or we might have been complaining about a bit more than a puncture!

Diego_Sideburns Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 When?! IIRC it was before it was announced that Shez had got the job. They were in the conservatory part and Roeder's agent was sat in the pub part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outoftheblue Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 you were in the pub at Newport with the Eintracht Frankfurt fans before the game at Cardiff. Was that the time they suddenly unfolded a large collapsable table on the car park, filled it with two dozen shot glasses, and broke out a couple of bottles of fiery schnapps? Very hospitable of them, I thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostofcecere Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 you haven't ran through moss side bricking it after another tics 3 points, because the stupid coach driver parked on princess parkway You haven't been a ballboy you haven't got home at 6 in the morning from southampton because a barlows coach had 2 punctures. You haven't been punched by Steve Cherry whilst he played for Plymouth - early 80s you've never come back on a coach from some 4/5 hour away trip with no beer left, rough and minging headache, due to drinking from 8am You haven't scored through wembley on soccer am (or done the catwalk!) (Awaits bigfin) I think me and my mate were the only ones to get back on the Ste Waller Booze Bus without a black eye that day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsslatic Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 IIRC it was before it was announced that Shez had got the job. They were in the conservatory part and Roeder's agent was sat in the pub part. Interesting. IIRC Sheridan was appointed with immediate effect after Moore was sacked, so either the club were interviewing other managers before Ronnie was given the push or Diego has made an error. Either situation is a shocking one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outoftheblue Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 (edited) I think me and my mate were the only ones to get back on the Ste Waller Booze Bus without a black eye that day You could always rely on Wallerways (Stuarts Coaches) to park in the most dangerous places. Usually it was due to arriving with two minutes to kick off, after a strong lunchtime session somewhere en route.

It wasn't good was it... I'd forgotten that we were close to his top speed of 42!!! when it occured We were sat on the back seat, when 2 miles out of southampton, my mate all over himself and we were sploshing in it for the remaining 8 hours home!!

In fact, didn't we have an impromtu game of football in the coned off lanes of the motorway while the tyre was being replaced? Not the ideal place - in the dark - with traffic passing at 70mph...

Either situation is a shocking one I did make an error. I love conspiracy theories but there was nothing going on behind Shez's back. I knew it wasn't when Ronnie Moore was appointed so presumed it must have been Shez, so that's why I said IIRC. It was actually when Talbot was appointed and Roeder was out of work after his West Ham experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlossopLatic Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 You were one of those locked out of Blackpool in 97 You have had at any point owned/part owned your own flag and got it on tv You sang proudley that you were part of Brian Talbots/Ronnie Moores/Graeme Sharps/Neil Warnocks blue and white armies.

BlueJazzer Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 You're not proper Oldham if u didnt endure the coach home from Norwich on relegation from the Prem day because it was still mathematically possible to stay up..... when i say mathematically possible the love child of Carol Vorderman and Stephen Hawking might have managed to work it out..... but you went anyway. You're not proper Oldham if u havent clung to the rear fence in the chaddy that seperated us from the wooden section but wasnt high enough to prevent everybody throwing their litter and cig butts under the stand anyway (deep breath) and twisted your ankle juming off again.

Dave_Og Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 You've been on an OASIS minbus with police outriders to get you to a game on time You've begged a ticket from Ian Stott at half time in the 1990 FA Cup semi-final replay after spending six hours on the motorway You've stood on Reading West station with 14 bags of chips You've asked for a vegetarian meal in the box at BP and watched them wash the gravy off the plate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seen Ron futchers White y fronts on his 30th birthday celebrations in an unusual 5-4 away defeat at Huddersfield Town (unusual, in that the 1st 4 games we hadn't let a goal in that season!!)
