This really is 1975-76.
We were relegated early on and our only fun was hoping the pigs went down from Division Three
When the halftime scores went up and the pigs were behind the old guy in the front row of the John Street seats - just behind me standing on the terrace - always stood up and screamed “Doomed” at the top of his voice.
In one game somebody said to him - you know we’re already down don’t you? His immediate reply was “It hurts a lot less when you’re gone than when you’re going”.
I felt like that again today for the first time - it didn’t hurt as much.
Pigs won 3 of the last 5 and stayed up that year - here’s hoping that history doesn’t completely repeat itself!
The Magic will come back - some time!!
