We left Saturday games at say 4.45 (HT’s were just ten minutes, injury time minimal) …… by 6 newsagents 10 miles away had the Argus Night Final edition with a full match report by John Vinnicombe. We’d pick it up on the way home.
The Argus had 100k hard cope sales with a big staff, their vans...
Colchester, I still have the skinny programme. My very kind older brother took me.
Second game, a month later my Dad took me to the Goldstone under floodlights for Albion 2-0 CP. Over 33,000 plus huge numbers Bamber didn’t record. The terraced crowds were swaying, heaving.
What a lucky...
Milner, I missed that. Instead I looked at a couple of reliable and updated websites.
Velts …. my favourite Albion player of the last 4 years, let’s face it, he’s a god 😍 . Post his long layoff, I wasn’t sure if he’s match fit to face Diaz?
