We were also just about to be promoted. I was at that game and I’m guessing a fair few others on here were too. I enjoyed that season very much. Those overall gate figures are grim. Perhaps it wasn’t all beer and skittles in the olden days. In fact I can barely remember playing skittles at all.
Couple of weeks before our FA Cup Final, lots of supporters emerged from nowhere... Just seen it's 1983, my mistake...
Anyone buying Wayne Henneseys explenation? Hennessey said he "waved and shouted at the person taking the picture to get on with it" and "put my hand over my mouth to make the sound carry". In a post on Twitter, the 31-year-old added: "It's been brought to my attention that frozen in a moment by the camera this looks like I am making a completely inappropriate type of salute. "I can assure everyone I would never ever do that and any resemblance to that kind of gesture is absolutely coincidental. Love and peace Wayne." please log in to view this image https://www.bbc.com/sport/cricket/46779604
No. You have to be an actual moron these days to get caught out doing that. Still quite funny though just obviously not going to be viewed lightly.
