  1. Going to my first game & new ground of the season today. Buxton the highest ground in England, but still a few thousand feet short of the Azteca at home to Droylesdon pre season friendly. While the rest if the country is basking in sunshine its raining in Buxton.
  2. Another shout for the Broadway. Football guaranteed to be on & top notch Indian grub.
  3. The Denbigh Castle just off Dale Street is s decent place to watch a game. There's also a cracking pub nearby worth a visit, ye hole in the wall but not sure if they'll have the football.on in there.
  4. York City v Sunderland pre season friendly on 18th July, tickets bought to ensure the 92 is done, again. Unusually for a lower division pre season game this will sell out. Means missing Burton away though.
  5. My first ever date was at the Cameo classic. As a 14 year old I managed to get off with a girl who was 15 in the year above me & took her to see Holiday on the buses before she kicked me into touch a few days later. The undoubted highlight of our brief relationship was a snog (my first) on the back row.
  6. Looking at some of the early posts on this thread it is interesting to see the positive vibes. People were really looking forward to this World Cup. It's a shame but understandable how the majority of recent posts have been negative. This is down to 2 people, one has gone about destroying the game that I love & the other has caused havoc worldwide. Infantino & Trump.
  7. Planning a trip to Scotland. Got the week off after the World Cup so will have a couple of days in Stranraer (jealous eh!) for their game with Edinburgh City on the Tuesday followed by Queen of the South v Aberdeen on the Wednesday. Depending on the conference league draw there's a possibility of either Hibs or Motherwell having a home tie on the Thursday.
  8. New additions for the "all stars" include Norman Stanley Fletcher, Lenny Godpur, an Anglia TV weatherman & possibly one of The Goodies.
  9. They all murdered each other

    The Weather

    Every bank holiday weekend, one way or the other, we moan about the weather. All part of the joys of living in a good climate.
  11. I like to think he learned his trade here when Pearson used him as a sub, as a winger.
  12. After many years am re-reading Steinbeck's East of Eden. An epic story by America's greatest author. A 'must read before you die' book.
  13. Have you ever been to Leith?
  14. I'm a wannabe pornstar but I'm 66 and a bit camera shy.
  15. Apologies in advance for my pessimism but that will be packed with non football fans getting all excited about the world cup in the USA, drinking watery lager at £7 a pint.
  16. If the comedians, who have to shell out in advance for hotels, travel & expenses etc.haven't been paid, what hope is there for the future of this popular & once very well run festival? Can't see too many comics wanting to appear in next year's festival if they're going to lose out financially. Has it got too big? Are the team running it similar to the administration at LeicesterCity? Or is it that there is so much red tape in the modern way of organisation that no one has a clue?
  17. Lutterworth Athletic in the same division but can't see Lutterworth town in the lists. Missed off or no longer with us?
  18. Friar Lane also hosted Sevilla in the 80s when Jock Wallace managed Sevilla.
  19. I would argue that its full of characters, something thats lacking in most pubs nowadays. Reasonable prices too.
  20. Have great 10 days coming up. Off to Barrow v Newport tomorrow to finally complete the 92, its taken 56 years! Then fly out to Italy on Thursday to take in Torino v Sassuolo on Friday night then a double header on Sunday, Cremonese v Pisa (please be fit Jamie!) and AC Milan v Atalanta in the evening.
  21. On the train on the way back from Matlock Town v Consett 3-0 home win. Great day out, few beers & fish n chips at Matlock Bath followed by an entertaining albeit one sided game at the most picturesque of all non league grounds. I'm beginning to love Saturdays when City haven't a game.
  22. You could argue that award goes to Forest Green.
  23. Glentorans ground is like a time warp & dilapidated & I mean that in a positive way. Take yourself back to the 1970s & enjoy. Linfield is a half decent small national stadium that has to be ticked. Not been to Glenavon yet, one day hopefully.
  24. Slowly Plenty left after 2 days of sale
  25. "The Tank" The only player in Leicester City history to have a record recorded in his honour. Glad the article missed out the bit about the post office!
