Ramfact #252: The manager of Ramsden's tavern bought John Robson's house off him when he moved to Villa.

How do I know? Coz it was my next door neighbour. The chances today of a restaurant manager being able to afford to buy the house of a league winning footballer, or me being able to afford the house next door - are both somewhat slim.

Not a bad team on paper...  never did it though.

I agree, but it was a team in transition. Circa 1977/78 season I'd guess. 

Nish, George, Todd & Rioch were soon to be moved on. Middleton was a crap goalie & a Forest reject at that. Masson, Ryan, Curran & Hughes all departed within months of their arrival. Roy was struggling with injuries by then.

Only Dave Langan & Steve Powell were really consistent for the next couple of years or so.

Talk about no continuity.  ..........But then again we were managed by that clown Tommy Docherty.

Walked round the back of the Popside pen to watch the second half of this,  amongst the Spurs fans, some were sobbing after this 8-2 rout..Rioch got 4, i seem to remember.

You'll be struggling to beat that one @loweman2, unless you've got Trevor Christie's from the same match. Or Charlie's against Madrid. Or Wanchope's against ManU. Or McGovern's against Liverpool. Or.......... We'll, you'll be struggling ?

He's got some fantastic shirts, he puts the ground work in. He has some very very rare ones, and some are totally unique.

Yes I know. He's got a fantastic collection and has put in many hours of work, and imagine quite a penny too. It's pure jealousy on my part, and also a bit of a joke as every time I give him a like, which is with almost every post, I add a comment about how much I hate him for it. Love what you're doing @loweman2, keep up the fantastic journey you're on.

I think between us, we have nearly every shirt from the last 50 years. There are only 2 or 3 rare third shirts I think we are missing.

Good luck to both of you in completing your collections. As always, keep us updated with new acquisitions.
