I didn't know Colonel Tigh used to be our chairman. /geek

 

 

To Rangers goes our deepest sympathy for having such a mob follow you round to matches is like a monumental millstone round the neck. They can't shake it off and the people concerned may yet have this famous Scottish club banned from European competitions. It is a terrible predicament and we sincerely hope that Rangers can find some way of solving the problem in the very near future.

 

Some things never change.

Happy Days  -  watching them win a major trophy, and the European Fairs Cup was far stronger then, than the UEFA Cup is now - with only one team going into the European Cup from the league, rather than four.

 

Then, at the Airport, watching them carrying the trophy through and back into the City Centre, to SJP.

 

NEVER thought that would be the last time we would win a trophy for 39 years!!!

So two generations of our support have never seen a trophy, then. Very depressing fact.

 

Could be worse though... could be 3 generations if we were Sunderland.

They won the FA Cup 4 years after we won the Fairs Cup.

No no.

 

Thanks for ruining the attempted joke though, you mong.

 

It was a daft insinuation that Mackems all have kids when they're 12... so if we were Sunderland then it would be THREE generations of our support since '69, not just TWO.

Actually, thinking about it, the joke works either way. Since '73 just means that Mackems all have kids when they're 11.

 

Even more accurate, in fact.

 

It stands either way.
