I remember the Sporting Blue, was that some kind of reboot of this Buff? It seemed pointless as the radio was reliable by then (mid/late 80s I'm guessing) to get results across the country from there. At what point did radio start to be able to do that?

I think that makes us two sad, old bastards.

Just sad says enough

You could definitely still get the sporting blue in the 1999/2000 season

 

[homer]

Yeah, but did you do that, and then go down to the training ground and get the players to sign the photos....

You’re old though, surely you didn’t do that?

I suppose that’d be ok if you lived close by. A 15 mile bike ride on my penny farthing would have been tough.

When we first moved to the states in the summer of 1994 we used to have those we left behind mail us the "green" every week so we could keep up to date on scores. When people got fed up of that I used to have to go to an international newspaper merchants and sneak a look at the match reports. I'd buy a Loaded magazine from there too ... you know, for wanking.

When we were in the League Cup final in 1997 we called home and had them put the phone by the radio so we could listen. That obviously went to extra time and a replay. Probably spent a lot more than the people that attended the actual matches on that particular indulgence.

I've also got a picture from one of Citys football camps with then captain Simon Grayson. I don't wank to that.

Glory Days, eh. Now it's all pink kits and high definition pornography.

I think there was a thread about this a few years ago, but I don’t know what it was called.

How old are people on this website?

I’m 43, to start things off.

Miles is 50 but he looks 80 after all that wanking.

Most Americans look older than they are

Do you remember the Sporting Green and the Buff. Bill Anderson writing bollocks.

Ink coming off all over your hands. Rip 'em up for ticker tape.

Jumpers for goalposts.

*ink coming off all over your brass hand? Getting Pearson’s brass hand wax all over the carpet and getting a thrashing? Eh? Eh? Do you remember?

 

[Miles Away]

39 and 89 respectively.

So you were 14 when you moved here?

Stones?

Correct.

 

[pork pie fox]

39 and 89 respectively.

I thought you were probably a similar (but younger) age to me..

 

[Blaarev]

Too old to rock’n roll, too young to die.
