Indeed mate ... used to love those Xmas fixtures ... I'm also old enough to remember neutral ground FA Cup replays before extra time and pens were introduced ... Back in the mid 70s Arsenal played Sheff Wed at Filbert St 3 times in 7 days ... they would still have had their normal Saturday 3 pm league fixtures to boot .
that’s one. I promised if you could show one then I would only say nice things about Newcastle for a month. I am a man of my word, just ask @Tel 11th jan.
Remembering the Pardew glory days here What a man, what a legend Remember when he called Pellegrini a stupid old ****? Or the time he head butted that Hull player? Or the time we came back from 4-0 down and he went mental. What a proper geezer. Blame that big grunting ape The True Geordie for organising that campaign to get rid of him. Best thing about Pards is how much he wound everyone up
How old are you since the last league game played on Christmas day was 1965 . The FA cup replays were ****ed from the moment the Police insisted on at least 7 days notice .
no i said it doesn't happen anymore and you chucking out non relevant fixtures from nigh on 20 years ago makes no odds to that .
now i know why they call you munse. Already acknowledged. As I said, it’s once and I am a man of my word, @Tel agree.
It's upto 3 now and ive got 10 years to work through Two posts back you were crying about the 1st example only being a qualifying round and trying that it didn't count... Now after I've provided 2 examples thst aren't and you've back peddled to saying it doesn't happen anymore.
1. 2. The other side played on christmas eve and boxing also...... Thats the key aspect you've failed to comprehend
