Re: How many old 'uns/over 60's post on here?
I'm the ripe old age of 69 and being born in Yorkshire I'm a bit of a glory hunter, jumping onto the back of us winning the 1st division back in 1960. I didn't get to see us play though until 1965. First game at Leeds, Willie Irvine scored in a 1-1 draw. I have a program from every game I've been to...

I sat down the front too as I'm waiting for a knee op. and I'm not able to stand for the whole 90 minutes. What amazed me was the sheer number of Clarets fans trooping in and out of the stand during the whole game. It was constant movement so I sympathise with Woodley. You expect a few late comers a...

Re: Circles or Squares?
Talking of squares, get yersen down to Trent Bridge. It's free admission today for a whole day of test match cricket. The bars are open all day and the sun is shining.
NB for non-cricket types the area where the wickets are is known as 'the square' and the length of the pitch is exactly one chain.
