Guest firetotheworks Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 Great thread my brother had this up on his wall in the house (he cut out from the Eurosport catalog) and I proper loved looking at this thing: Side lacing I remember having a pair of side lacing Nikes with a chrome swoosh and thinking that it would only leave people disappointed when they saw me play.

Alberto2005 Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 Teletext is a good shout. Boring Milner but I was young when we were playing Sheffield Wednesday in SBR's first home game and I was sick of teletext flicking through all the scores so I pressed HOLD to keep it on the newcastle score. Didn't realise that meant it didn't update it so I just assumed it finished 4-0 until my dad came home and told me it was 8. For some reason I remember reading on teletext one year that we were set to sign Christian Dailly from Blackburn after SBR had joined. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They used to have a part where they'd read letters, I remember one where it was simply, 'Morrow, Parlour and Hillier, can you think of a midfield sillier?', and they just said 'no' and went to the next letter.

Sima Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 Can anyone remember what match ball we used in the mid 80s? Some really obscure brand that nobody had heard of and no other club used.
