Found my '99 Gillingham ticket in the loft...

[Whitefield Blue]

...must be worth something?

Interestingly it says WIGAN ATHLETIC / MANCHESTER CITY on it. Does anyone know why?

Becasue the Wembley final tickets were printed before the result of the Semi, so it had both teams on because the winner would have that allocation and end at Wembley. Just as Gillinghams ticket would have said them and whoever they played i the semi (can't remember who!).

Preston were the other team.

That season there were 5 teams who are now in the top division. City, Fulham, Wigan, Stoke and Reading. Also two who have been there recently in Burnley and Blackpool.

Just a bit of info if anyone forgot or cares. :)

Sorry but you're wrong - Gillingham beat BOURNEMOUTH in the other Semi final.

No, it was definitely Preston who lost to Gillingham.

And York are now back in League 2.

My mistake and I apologise. Just checked.
