angieram Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Phil has started posting these on Twitter, I've not seen them on here so I thought I'd post the link to what I think is the first set in the sequence. They are a great read and I'm awaiting each new set with bated breath! Thanks, @loweman2!

Even more fascinating read… Edited February 9, 2023 by Ellafella 48 hours and angieram 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great to go to football, as always, but "The Doc" hastened the demise by ripping up a team that still had mileage and just needed tweaking.

You don’t look old enough to have been working in the late 1880’s ? archram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Normanton Lad Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Those minutes are fascinating. We can now see what the players were earning then - not much. I wonder why Notty Hornblower was given a complementary season ticket. She is an expert on dresses. Perhaps she was giving advice to cross dressers on the board. The way we played at that time she might even have been advising one or more of the players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't really look at the image, just the 88 - 89. Missed the 18..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
