Off up to dirty Leeds on the Ramaway ! Does anybody remember them ?

I seem to recall, a few years later, maybe 79/80/81 ish? our Ramaway won "Supporters coach of the year", or some such title?  Operated by "Kinch".  Bright yellow from memory.  Brand spankers they were.  State of the art, you could say.  Obviously not as good as what the players/board travelled on, but for football fans, we were positively spoiled. 

Owd Ernie Hallam sat up front of the lead coach.  I'm sure he used to do the royal wave, as we neared the away ground, amid the mingling Rams fans!  ?

 

The tracked version however (The train, obvs!) was somewhat quite the opposite.  I don't think British Rail ever did get around to trusting football supporters to take good care of their carriages!   For good reason, in fairness.  ?

Leeds... Leeds... The name's familiar, but I'm struggling.  Leeds Rovers, wasn't it?

Didn't their 3,000,000 fans all jump in the sea together, at Filey, celebrating winning the European Cup?  Was that them?  Such a shame none of them made it back to shore... so many wasted lives!  More than any other team, I'd imagine.

I’m loving all the 2 3 5 formations. 
Let’s see if we can build a team in that formation with our current squad. 

            Clarke Wisdom

          Lowe Bird Bogle

Knight Sibley Martin Rooney Holmes

 

Lots of 7 - 6 wins in there I think! ?

Maybe that ones not one for preserving. Maybe give it to Watford to make them feel a bit better. 

Could give it to bury but... well (too soon?).
