Ashley Posted 4 May 2012 Posted 4 May 2012 Fulham v Leicester, Craven Cottage 1983. Starts at 8AM. I wasnt even born then but I will still watch it. Ian Wilson scores the winner with 10,000 Leicester behind the goal my dad just text me this! Enjoy.
Head Honcho Posted 4 May 2012 Posted 4 May 2012 One of my best days watching Leicester. Cracking day out too.
Bobbyp57 Posted 4 May 2012 Posted 4 May 2012 If I remember rightly it p*ss*d down and was cold but was worth it. Apart from his wilderness years at Everton, whatever happened to Ian Wilson ?
SaM 12 Posted 4 May 2012 Posted 4 May 2012 What time? shame you revealed the outcome though he also revealed the time
flowwolf Posted 4 May 2012 Posted 4 May 2012 he also revealed the time And the fact he was not even born. that's one hell of a honest guy.
RyanB89 Posted 4 May 2012 Posted 4 May 2012 silly me i actually re read a couple of times and didnt see the time
Al-aLondon-Foxile Posted 5 May 2012 Posted 5 May 2012 My first London away day, and great memories. What a crowd we had that day. Thanks for the heads up, I'm gonna watch it now before work :-)
Zingari Posted 5 May 2012 Posted 5 May 2012 It’s half time , no goals , we’ve missed a hatful of chances and the defence has looked dodgy a couple of times on the break. PEARSON OUT !!
FrankieADZ Posted 5 May 2012 Posted 5 May 2012 nice proper kit too I see...pitch looks a right rag tho.
Zingari Posted 5 May 2012 Posted 5 May 2012 I noticed that at least 3 of the triumphant QPR team signed for us later (Hazell , Sealy and Fenwick ). thanks for the notice Ashley
Zingari Posted 5 May 2012 Posted 5 May 2012 How it all ended that year !! Second Division Queens Park Rangers were champions with Wolverhampton Wanderers and Leicester City also promoted to the First Division. Rotherham United, Burnley and Bolton Wanderers were relegated to the Third Division. It was another blow for Bolton, who had been relegated from the First Division three years earlier. Charlton Athletic and Wolverhampton Wanderers both came within hours of going bankrupt but were both saved by respective new owners. Leicester City's promotion was appealed against by Fulham after their final day match against Derby County was stopped with more than a minute to play due to a pitch invasion. Fulham's appeal was eventually rejected and Leicester City's promotion was confirmed. drama to the end !!

goose2010 Posted 5 May 2012 Posted 5 May 2012 Would love to see the likes of messi and ronaldo play on a pitch like that!
boring_jester Posted 5 May 2012 Posted 5 May 2012 "heres one way to spend a saturday afternoon down by the river. Mind you, you'll need a black labradore and a jack russel terrier to make it worth while. and thats what you call making a big splash." better then ian stringers commentery.
MC Prussian Posted 5 May 2012 Posted 5 May 2012 A Derby fan kicking a Fulham player during the match. Well, police wasn't really up to their job back in the days, were they?
TrentFox Posted 5 May 2012 Posted 5 May 2012 T'was a great day out. We had some great London days away around that period. This being one, Orient being another. Only missed two games that season as a kid. Can't afford that level of fanaticism these days even as a working adult !!!
Nick Posted 5 May 2012 Posted 5 May 2012 A couple of my brothers were at the Derby game. That's incredible.

Rich Fox Posted 5 May 2012 Posted 5 May 2012 I was a 12 year old kid who had been going on and off for a few years. At school there were only 2 City fans as I live in Atherstone. But this game got me hooked for life! What a side we had apart from Tommy English who was crap.
