Getting relegated by a team wearing our away kit is still on the City “to do” list.

Ted inspired much of the stuff I used to do when Lavinda Past was 'born' some 20-odd years ago.

As to why they sent for the rags kit rather than wear our away, might it have been that they both wore Adidas kits and we were Umbro so for a combination of contractual and aesthetic reasons?

Whatever happened to "shirts and skins", and "jumpers for goalposts"...?

The best (or worst) was the Monday after we’d lost to Blackburn in the FAC qtr final… suffice to say someone was unhappy at the way fans reacted to the defeat and said we should be happy we’d got to a qtr final. Someone else then piped up that our expectations were all wrong and that maybe the club needed new fans! Myself and Steve Sayer reacted quite strongly to this and Steve talked about loyalty and needing reward. The person who piped up about needing new fans had gone shortly after Garry Cook arrived - it’s not a name anyone will know so no point guessing.

Ted, or at least someone who goes by his name, still comments on games etc. He often posts comments/his memories on my Facebook page.
