East side was for the mature and more sensible fans.
Oh I see what you mean. It was the only season I had a season ticket there. I was in BLUT from 1970 to 1977 and since then for most of the seasons I sit in the South Stand. In summer 1993 I decided to have a season in the Terraces for its last season
 
Little quiz .. can you remember this lad .. hero of the John Street West ?

Had a great habit, after he'd put in a rather hefty (borderline bookable) challenge, of kneeling in front of the ref to re-tie bootlaces or fiddle with socks or shin pads which somehow made the ref more lenient on him as he was getting ticked off.

I thought you were very generous with the 'borderline booking'. IIRC most of them were well over the border.

Absolute top bloke, cult hero and very worthy of the name check on the first Housemartins album.
 
Hughes also played half back for Blackpool and made that position his own at Liverpool. He did play that game but I'm not certain enough to say he made the tackle so I'm happy to agree to disagree.
I`m still fairly sure it was Jimmy Armfield for the tackle on Gil Reece.
 

Has it?

Poor old Rover.

I'm going to have a respectful minute not posting and thinking of other dogs that may have passed away too......

Well that's hardly respectful. The least you could do is sellotape a cheap bunch of flowers from a filling station to a lamp post.

Oh, and create a Facebook page...
 
Always loved it when United wore them socks away from home,reminds me of Tommy McAlister for some reason,don't know why
First time I saw us wearing these socks was in the 1-0 defeat at Derby (McGovern) in the 1970 Watney Cup semi final. Still always remember John Barnwell's feint trick that I used quite often when I played football
