The own goal was closer than I thought it was.

Two things struck me about that:-
The seeming lack of Wolves fans at the game-penned in the corner of the Osmond.
The number of Town fans who used to stand in the open corners.

Re the former-Does seating make it look as though there are loads more there?

As far as memory goes I remember reading something which said that schooldays are the most important because that is the age when the human mind is most receptive to taking in large amounts of information. As a regular listener to "Pick of the Pops" with Fluff Freeman on a Sunday night I can find myself singing(?) along on the radio-word perfect to songs from the 70s (yesterday it was Bowie's "Drive-in Saturday" from 1973) but struggle with words from much more recent songs. On a football basis I seem to be able to remember games from my first few seasons yet couldn't remember us even playing Havant and Waterlooville a couple of seasons ago.


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

The lack of Wolves fans was probably due to the fact that they were going through some serious problems and they were relegated from Division One to Division Four in consecutive seasons. I think Bristol City had done something similar a couple of seasons earlier.
