  1. Jnr, the match was at the old Victoria Ground (now demolished) and we were on our way back from Brummagem to Uncle Mike's after I'd raced cross country in Sutton Park in the morning. You were two and a half so that'd make it the summer of 92, Ossie Ardiles was the manager at the time and the Baggies were in the old Third Division.  :019:

    Only when we got to the ground (at ten to three) did I discover that the game was all ticket and we were indebted to a copper who introduced us to a bloke who had two tickets to sell in the away end at face value. Three into two doesn't go so you sat on alternate laps half way back dead centre behind the goal in the middle of the choir. That'll be where you first heard 'The Lord's My Shepherd'!  :004:

    Anyway, we went 1-0 up halfway through the first half then they equalised with the last kick of the first half. Thirty seconds after the restart, Stoke went 2-1 up, only for the Baggies to hit back (kicking our way) not once but twice for 3-2. Well that'll be that then, we all thought, but it wasn't to be. Stoke pulled it back to 3-3 with ten minutes left then scored the winner on 85.  :009:

    My own first game was Villa v Chelsea in September 64. Villa were 2-0 down with ten minutes to go, then up popped Tony Hateley (Mark's dad) with a double. I got pushed into the railings at the front of the Holte end, slit my eye open and ended up getting carried out and off to hospital in a nee naw. The olds weren't best pleased as we didn't have a phone and they hadn't a clue what had happened until I got home at 2am!  :017:

    :015: I can just imagine the trouble you would have got into, i don't envy you :007:.

  2. Since that Yompa is posting threads like there's no tomorrow in the OFF, just so they can be ahead of us (he told me that), thought i might start our own lke thread about first things.

    So what was your first Album you bought.

    Mine was The Marshall Mathers LP, which i franticaly hid from the old man :016:

  3. I take it that you are all too traumatised to feckin stmpathise with me.  :019: :019: :019:

    I just thought you were winding us all up.The boy who cryed wolf and all that :002:. Hope you get better for the new season.

  4. Back to the original thread. How much does it cost to use these gyms? i just use the fitness suite in the P.E. department in my free periods but the summers coming up and the school will be closing.

    wait a minute........FITNESS SUITE???? what kind of posh school do you go to? we had a medium sized ROOM for our P.E.

    Posh :015: :015: :015: I'd hardly call a state school on the west coast of scotland posh. It is just a gym  filled with weight machines, bikes, rowers, punch bag, one tredmill.... that sort of thing. It's more a case of what tinky school did you go to :002:

  5. The best meals ever invented were

    • [li]cooked breakfast the morning after the night before - has to be the full works though - sausage, bacon, egg, black pudding etc - the greasier the better. If you were still shaky it might not stay down, but if you were just hungover then it was great[/li]

    You know the script :clapping04: :notworthy01:

  6. First match was about 1991 i think, my dad will know the date. It was West Brom against Stoke at the Hawthorns. from lossing 0-1 West Brom went up 2-1 only to lose 3-2 in the second half.... i think. Think the old man took me up the brummie Road end :clapping04:.

  7. Expensive! I really can't see the point of paying about 40 quid a month to look at a wall when you can go and run in the wonderful outdoor for nothing.

    You'd be amazed at how good an overall fitness regime you can devise for yourself without the cost of going near a gym.... where the training of the staff can be... to say the least... variable.

    £40 aye right. Am just talking about local boxing clubs not big leisure centers. I agree about the running, i don't use the tredmill just the weight machines.

  8. Having just secured my holidays for this summer, thought i'd see where the rest of you were off to. Am away to visit family down in England for a week, missing the start of the SPL. What sunny destinations have we all got lined up then?
