Match of the day.

[longers]

PNE will be shown and they didn't lose .

You can watch it via the interweb if like me you don't have a telly.

I have a "soft spot" for PNE ever since I worked on an adventure holiday camp in 1989 and a school from Preston were there when a "big match" was on. They were great kids (and teachers) and since then I always look out for PNE results. I could even tell you what the score was today without googling

I'm a lapsed season ticket holder and now only make a couple of matches a year. It's too flipping expensive. And you have to sit down .

Do you remember the opposition from the match in 1989? Sheffield Wednesday?

Not sure. I think it was a cup match, but it may just as likely have been a local derby. I remember cancelling my plans for the evening programme and sitting with the kids and teacher listening to the match on the radio - I can't even remember whether they won or not, but what has stuck with me (that night and the week I worked with them) was how enthusiastic the kids were about everything, and how much fun the kids and teachers were to be with. Just great

That's a good memory to have.

Indeed it is.

Nearly 20 years ago, so it must have been good. Quite a lot of good memories of my time in that job, considering it only lasted 5 months. Although it seemed to have lasted a lot longer.

I had always intended to go to a PNE game sometime...never did. Maybe I will one day

I also have a "soft spot" for Shrewbury Town due to the same job. And have never seen them either.

Maybe I will be able to fit it in to co-incide with an audax sometime?

Back to MotD - Paul Sturrock's let it go a bit has he not!!

 

[longers]

I've been to Gay Meadow for a match. Not sure what the new ground is called but the old one certainly sticks in the memory.

On my list of things to do are ride to Deepdale for a game and ride to an away match also. A Sheffield game would be probable - if we stay in the same league. Doubtful at the moment, thrid division here we come . At least Oldham isn't too far for a match.

The local team to where I live now is Glossop North End.



Just watched MOTD - Well played Havant and Waterlooville, chapeau!

I spend all day Saturdays avoiding the scores. It's like the bloody Likely Lads round here.

C'mon Villa!

 

[Dave5N]

Gooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal!

(1-1)

 

[Maz]

We exit the cup tomorrow (I'll be there). We're at home to Man City who'll turn us over no probs. Then we can 'concentrate on the league'...not.

Oh...I'm a Blades fan btw.

 

[longers]

Some of the best fans I've seen at Deepdale Maz. Good value.


Nearly as good as The Owls .

Given the current climate at Liverpool I fancied that Havant might sneak it given an all out attack as they had nowt to lose for a brief period of time was planning on some new wheels with the winnings from my £3 bet at 100-1.
Alas I got my come uppance as my team came good and I will be struck down next time I attempt to go through the turnstile at Anfield for betting against my beloved Liverpool.
Full credit to Havant they put on a brave display and fully deserved their day and big adventure.

Gawd. Don't remind me. They turned us over 2-0 last week. I was desperate to get a ticket for the away end but they were like gold dust. Glad I didn't go in the end.

 

[longers]

I've made good money on betting against North End. It's not wrong, just wise especially recently.

If I back them to win and they lose, I'm down on two counts no?
