Scunny at The Old Show Ground in about 1853. We were covered though. Don't remember much about the match but remember the rain and the horrible atmosphere inside and outside the ground. Town fans knocked a garden wall over to provide ammunition as we left the ground.

I do not miss those days.



Bloody hell, thought only tortoises lived this long!!

For terrible weather and defeats, Hartlepool holds some grim memories.

I may have exaggerated a little.


Miss Scunthorpe. Not a beauty pageant, just sound advice.

Can anyone remember an away game when it drunk it down and we won?


The Stockport game Lukeo referred to. 2008 Johnstone's paint trophy. We won 2-1. If I recall correctly Town fans were behind the goal and moved at half time after rain and hail to the side.

I'll answer my own question there. Away at Plymouth 1992 I think. Late on in the season, we won 2-1 and the 100 or so Town fans doing the conga singing "Singing In The Rain'". Super Clive and a rare Mark Lever goal.


I was at that match Les 😀
I drove up from RN Air Station in Cornwall
I was based there.
I loved it doing the conga.
Until I twisted my ankle.

Haiku?


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.

thornemariner and I were discussing this after the Dover game

He said what about the day England won the Rugby World Cup ( November 2003 )

I remembered it absolutely hammering down all day while I was at home watching Jonny Wilkinson on TV whereas he was at Brentford seeing Town win 3-1, singing in the rain

😆 the pitch was terrible that day. Our first goal came because we hit the ball into space and on any normal day it would have gone straight out for a goal kick. It just stopped in the pool of water and only Town players chased it.

Swim low sweet halibut.
