Blackburn away, my first away game...not the best mind, ah memory's. Glad i wasn't on the same couch as this Ackworth fella.
We went up full of hope haysey- really fancied our chances, but everything went wrong... Carson blunder, own goal, sending off... Shooting ourselves in the foot I think that's called.
I remember going thinking we could win, after watching us spank west ham 4-0...longest trip home i've ever had
I notice the phrase "Operation......." has never been used again, after that disaster and the equally ghastly trip to Middlesborough.
ohh i went to that middlesbrough trip, i knew it was gonna be a bad day when 2 pissed strewn boro teens wenr past us by the train station and said "we're gonna do ya 4-1" the git wernt far wrong, theres nothing worse than 20,000 boro fans singing in harmony some dodgy euro theme tune, sounds lke sewer rats mating!
I've read some of Actworthless comments on the old os site...Laughable...Yet somehow tragic and sad at the same time. Never met the geezer but have an image in my mind of what he might look like..... I'm off to watch my 'Mr Bean' dvd box set now!
