One of my first away games. Surely that performance should get Graham Oates legend status?

Hope today's yoof notice. Not a clone island jumper or a single zit in sight 😉


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

Was that the one where we took over Donny Road end? ..........Well we got there early and stayed until the Scunny fans turned up and chased us out! Lololol 😆 Might of been 71-72 season that happened though. First away game on my own with mates from school!

Not sure the ref saw the handball by Bobby Ross but he may have got away with a caution there as it looked deliberate!

I was at that game and unfortunately it was the time when hooligans decided to take over football. Pelted with bricks (full not half!) on the way back to the train but we lived to tell the tale.

It was a terrible time for the Mariners around that time, until Big Mac arrived to perform a miracle.

Before they scored the penalty, we could have had two red cards and a yellow. That is going by today's standards.
