Re: Away days in lower leagues

Re: Away days in lower leagues

I personally went to follow the football and have a good day out. I was pretty incensed at mansfield and also had a lager too many. But the bother did add some spice back then when I was silly and stupid. I still think that those lower league days were great even though we were usually bobbins away ...

Re: Away days in lower leagues

I used to like the run over to Scunthorpe, when they were at the old Showground. There's a village called Gunness (sp?) that had a few pubs which were always full of Clarets when we played. Lincoln and Walsall were favourites, too. Happy days indeed. Rather be playing Chelsea and United, etc, thoug...
