I tend to agree. I also believe that the Championship and lower leagues are more competitive. How many teams could possibly win this league(Championship) compared to how many teams could win the Premier?
Yes I know there are more teams in this division........than
1) Score a goal. Noone
2) Score with a header. Bergkamp
3) Score from outside the area. Lua Lua
4) Score an own goal. Ankgeren
5) Miss a penalty. Noone
6) Be booked. Calderon
7) Be sent off. Calderon
8) Be substituted. Lua Lua
9) Come on as a substitute. Noone
10) Concede a penalty. Painter
Gerry Ryan having his leg broken at Selhurst Park....the whole ground went quiet..after the awful snapping sound. does anybody remember ?
Couple of amazing goals...Garry Nelson at Griffin Park and Martin Keown for the Albion at the Goldstone from about 35 yards out.
Remember 7-0 v Charlton, but I think that might have been early 80's. Against Walsall 76/77 7-0 after a 0-0 HT. Doing a collection around the inside of the ground whilst we got hammered by Bristol Rovers 2-8. Warbouys and Bannister I think on Cloughies first game. 1974 I believe.
Resent the JCL tag!
First game 1968/69 Dawson, Duffey et el.
With me Dad. Then with my Grandad. through the early 70's, Any one remember 2-0 v Bournemouth Boxing Day? (32,000)1972 I think! I was standing on an orange box at the front of the terrace at the south end of the East stand. The burger...
Best Ever!
I work in a bookies and a serious punter of mine ..62 years in racing says 'best miler i've ever seen...incredible.' And what i saw was a bloody fast horse.
i,ve got a 2001 centenary shirt signed by the second successive title winning team inc Zamora and Robbie (or is it Ronnie) R. Also the centenary book, the next one hundred years signed by the same players. Whats that worth?
I hate too think that we could all become complacent about these signings. I,m not sure I would like to be a Man City fan whoose bored of new signings because you can have any body you want. Its still exciting and i love it.
