See berry blue post on next page. Whoops. Just emerged from Wetherspoons.Bowyer mate,not Boyer.
Well it was hot that day course if you stayed over night it might of got a bit chilly.The seasons in Stoke are Winter (Sept to Nov), Winter (Dec to Feb), Winter (March to May) and then a hybrid they call Sprummer (June to Aug)!
I think that the story was pinched from a transfer saga twenty years later. Swales was far too mean apart from anything else. The one I heard was about Peter Risdale signing Seth Johnson from Derby for Leeds with those sorts of number quoted.Think you might need to take a zero off that. No player was getting paid £6,000 per week in 1981
John Barnes became the first £10k per week footballer in 1992 and there was an outcry then that wages were out of control
Day before a dispute over a sacking at work voted to strike so I could attend match. Took my little brother who a few years later had grown into a young governor. Largest City away following I was ever in, second largest was Stoke away March 76. 25 then 65 now where the f**k did the time go .Fastest thing I’d ever seen.
It was also bloody freezing on the Stoke terracing that night.
Do you mean the FA Cup tie at Stoke in '76? I'd have said there were more Blues there than at Trev's debut, the big open terrace as it was then was rammed and we had some down the side as well. That and Leeds for the riot Cup-tie in '78 were probably similar in numbers, around 15,000 City.Largest City away following I was ever in, second largest was Stoke away March 76. 25 then 65 now where the f**k did the time go .
No was the league game right after the league cup final, filled the open end and both side paddocks. The cup tie was 75 I think lost 1 0 to a late goal, good win in the 76 League game which I thought a fine revenge as a couple of Stokey mates had kept going on about the cup tie.Do you mean the FA Cup tie at Stoke in '76?
