UTM Dead Eye Dobbin stood motionless waiting, waiting, waiting for the ball to arrive. Back came the right foot, Down came the right foot, Bang ! Headlines around the world as the ball flew into the very top right hand corner of the goal.( Jim Dobbin scoring in the 89th minute for Town against Newcastle United away 24/10/1992 )

Jt thank you  so much. If you get a chance to listen to his commentary when Burnett scored the wembley winner, oh and when Arnold scored for 3 1. My parents tape recorded the Bournemouth Wembley game from the radio live on cassette back in 98 and I still have the tapes to this day. Just brilliant nostalgia and memories.

I'm trying hard to to decide who was the better, any thoughts? You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

Equally, very good of the club to offer JT a free season ticket moving forward. Classy Enjoy retirement Mr. Tondeur Sleep well Icey, Matty and Richard.

McDermott was saying something about being near the tunnel and managing to just about avoid the pitch invasion. Lovely stuff. JESUS AT THE CENTRE

We should make a Tondeur sound-bite collection, bring out the old favourites. My starter.. '..and there's a break on here...'. This generally followed most Town corners, often ended in the opposition scoring and will aways bring me out in a cold sweat

We tend to get comfortable and take the good things in life for granted, and this was never more apparent when BBC Humberside lost the commentary rights! Not having John for that season was horrible and whoever steps in now will have big boots to fill. I can only hope it’s Matt Dean he’s always done a good job when stepping in, plus I think he’s a town fan but not 100% sure. I think John has mentioned somewhere he will come back for the odd appearance now and then  🙏
