I wouldn’t think the main stand was that nice if I was stuck at the back when it went up in flames


You can build in timber that's properly treated.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

I want it to go back to the days when we all surged forward when we scored and I got crushed against the fence it the Ponny . It was ace !!


I used to stand with my back to one of the wooden barriers in the Pontoon and was standing there when one of them gave way.

BBC 1    20:00 - 21:00  Watchdog Live now..

Not sure when or how long it will be on during the programme but "ED Balls asks if the time has come for football grounds to introduce safe standing".


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

So if Shrewsbury get promoted on Sunday they will have to remove the safe standing they have just put in ?

Sounds like good planning to me

Was that Scunny on a Good Friday early 70’s ? Seem to remember going face down on top of other fans all a bit scary at the time.

I think you have to have been in the championship for at least 3 years before all stadiums have to be all seated. I could be wrong though

I thought so as well and if correct then poor journalism from the BBC.

To be honest I can't remember which game it was but sure it was most definitely in the 70's. I think we ended up standing in the Main Stand for the rest of the game.

My worst experience in the Ponny was vs Coventry in the Rumbelows cup, I think Drinkell was on the bench for them.  we scored and then the chant at the time was

Lets go fu(king mental lets go fu(king mental na na naaa na.….na na naa na
