Darlington 44 years ago!

I went up in my battered old Bedford CF van ( engine converted to a rover 3.5 ) with my best mate and a young lady ( of dubious reputation) who kept us busy at times, plus 10 24 packs from the whitbread brewery ( my mate worked on delivery's there ) by the time we got there we were absolutely pissed and sexually spent
Someone might be able to confirm this cos it's fuzzy , my mate still says 6 Middlesborough fans got chucked off the back of the open air stand we were in .
One of my absolute memories that I will take to my grave . Was the joy of the day.

Loads of ale and a slapper with loose morals, and even looser knicker elastic by the sound of things. Sounds lovely.

I ended up marrying her best mate 43 years and counting. And no she didn't have the same reputation

Best mates, as in plural. How many did you marry?

I never realised Henry VIII frequented this forum!

I was there. Probably still my favourite day as opposed to moment watching the Blades. I remember the bloke who pinched Edwards boots waving them at us. He had to appeal for them back cos they were his lucky ones. I remain convinced that the ball never left the pitch in the last 10 minutes cos of blades on the touchline.

What a day that was. I lost my finger the week before against Peterborough at home. I jumped off the fence at the Kop end and my ring pulled it off by getting caught on the wire. I had it amputated at the Royal Hallamshire and discharged myself in midweek to ensure I could go to this game. I’m glad I did it was unreal

You were one up on me, I just gashed my finger climbing over and bled all over the pitch!

There was a group of them ( all Blades apart from my missus who was a Liverpool fan) I have to admit I had carnel knowledge of most of them .
I often wonder why with my " boys will boys " ( my old man's favourite quote to my mother when she moaned about me disgracing the family ) in the late 70s early 80s I never caught anything serious

I went to the four nil away at Peterborough match too. Took as long to get off their car park after the match as the match lasted. Got down A1 to Ram Jam inn just in time for last orders. It was ram jam full of blades!
As I recall there had been a lot of talk in press pre match from their manager about how they were gonna slaughter us. He obviously didn't realise how much Morris and Edwards were going to tear them apart.

Sounds like you didn't even have to come from behind with the receptionist.

She played a blinder i remember - she was deffo on top the whole game
