    What are these rumours doing the rounds. Heard from a guy in the gym this morning that a consortium led by Steve McClaren got knocked back at TWS, but now looking at purchasing City....

    it was just reported he was involved in a consortium looking to buy a championship club, allegedly he'd been told Leeds wasnt for sale. We all got our brolleys out and prayed the wally would come and save us.
    Maybe that could be our protest for the sheff utd, we could all just stand there with brolleys.............

    I hope Stcheve and his pals have the likely £150m funds they'll need.

    Kempton snr used to take one on a rainy day/night. At one game, as the ref made a dodgy decision, he accidentally hit a woman on the back of the neck with it
    She wasn't too happy. Leaving me to apologise yet again.

    He was a dangerous man to go to games with as he got older was my old man and he blamed me for everything he did wrong <laugh>

    Schteve is regularly seen at our home games. All we need is a new song to sing to him asking him to buy us. This needs to be in place for the Blades game.

    Something like

    "Stevie Mac, Stevie,
    Oh Stevie Mac,
    When are you coming back?

    This club is missing you,
    We think you feel the same way too"

    Repeat.

    If you remember the Chelsea Cup game at BP when we were beaten 6-1 It was bucketing down. At the bottom of the steps to the South Stand a copper was telling a bloke in his seventies he couldn't take his brolley in as it was a dangerous weapon. Some of us told the copper not to be so daft. What did he think this old bloke was going to do, attack fellow supporters? It got heated with a number of people having a go and was only resolved when a more senior copper came and told him not to be so daft.

    That was the game when the police ordered all the pubs near BP to close on the basis it was difficult to judge how many Chelsea fans would be coming. My letter to the HDM informing the police that there was a marvellous new-fangled invention called a telephone which could help them got some good responses. They could find out the number of City or Chelsea, if London was up to date enough to have have one of these ground-breaking devices, to ring them to find out how many tickets had been sold to Chelsea fans, but anyone a bit brighter could guess, as it was a sell out and the Chelsea allocation was 1,600 that between 0 and 1,600 would be coming.
    Those were the days when a letter signed P C Nesbitt, Letsby Avenue would manage to get printed.<laugh>

    Lee Bracey in goal? Zola subbed because he couldn't get past Whittle and Chris Sutton crying when we chanted "your not English anymore" and "you'll never play for England"?

    David Brown scored our goal.

    I don't even remember it raining. My memory isn't the best <laugh>
