I can remember when we had the cons corner, and trying to decipher the  letters board and the page in the program for half time scores  


Ah the constitutional avenue open corner to give its proper title.  As a 10 year old at my first game, it felt like a place of beauty.  Later on the Findus was never quite the same.

I can just about remember Mini Mariner and smoking in BP being legal.


That's about as far back as I remember, missed out on some great times and experiences by the sounds of things. I really hope some manner of 'good' times come back to BP

The bloke in the Barratts who shouted "You're bloody rubbish number 3" every week, irrespective of who was playing.

The bloke in the imp corner who when the ref made his usual balls up would get 'You want molesting with the rough end of pineapple' screamed at him.  Everyone shouted pineapple at the same time, just about every Lino would crease up laughing, but how i miss my white wall that I would lean against as a young child.

more memories from when I was a teenager in the pontoon stand.....

the chant at every home game "if you're going to (next away game) clap your hands"
burning the programmes on the wooden floor of the stand to keep warm at half time in the winter
burning any "captured" away colours, scarves etc in the stand
everyone in tank-tops, tonics, etc with skinhead haircuts and town scarves hanging off your belt, neck and wrists.
Chelsea trying to "take" the pontoon and failing miserably.
There were some hard nuts amongst our lads in them days.


Bobby Cummings is my hero ! The main reason I am a Cod Head.

I remember that fondly, I was only about 16 or 17 I think.

One of the Chelsea "invaders" nicked my scarf but it was witnessed by one such "hard nut" who ran after said thief, smacked him in the gob and returned my scarf.

Before my time, but I remember Man City keeper Alex Williams being pelted with loads of bananas.

Can you image that happening today?
