Only just found this thread. Terry was also chairman at Southwick fc in the eighties. They were a force to be reckoned with in the Isthmian league in those days . Remember him at the club and on the away coaches with a pile of bets to settle and he usually took our money playing spoof. Good...

Yes i remember that Tranmere game. I was standing at the north end of the east terrace by the floodlight pylon.

I don't know if it's been mentioned but the Plough at Pyecombe was my first thought

Yes i went and it was very entertaining. Lee Robinson was the standout player , he could have played at a much higher level but was happy to stay with the Dockers. Unfortunately i can't get to the replay

I also share your frustration and incredulation at how the progressive Liberalists support all of this crap yet despise their own culture. As for dealing with the increasing terrorism threat well, nothing's going to happen. This destabilising and mongrolising of Europe has been in the planning...

Sorry that was in reply to the question re Southwick F.C.

There are more using the clubhouse than watching the game. The clubhouse is very well used by locals. The final results might be on but it's the horse racing they're there for. It's hard to believe now that Southwick were once one of the top Amateur/ semi pro sides in the county with the ground...

There was a wine bar on the right hand side going down Preston Street mid to late seventies. A small but nice place and there was always a barrel of Pompey Royal on the bar. I do remember its name but does anyone else ?

You may not like racing but there are many who do. If you don't like it why look at the thread

Because it's the DFT who are pulling the strings and making the decisions. The Go Ahead group are being paidt to take the flack.

I worked in London for a couple of years in the eighties. and the strikes then were all out. Apart from today there has been a service on most of the network on the day of the guards disputes..

IN the seventies and eighties there were regular strikes by guards and drivers probably at some stage every year. Everyone coped . This is only the second drivers strike on Southern in the last 23 years or so and yet people are having breakdowns and tantrums. Obviously the spoilt brat...

Join a union then

Informed by someone who works at Southern. OBS staff, per company instructions, have been told they must not do train dispatch duties on booked DOO services. However, many of the OBS staff will be agency and not trained to do it anyway.

You weren't being serious were you ?
