Great times. Remember trying to listen to commentaries on medium wave. Charles Ekberg commentating, Boylen the midfield dynamo, Hickman the tireless workhorse enabling Tees and Brace to bag the goals. Memories eh?


My first ever Mariners game was that last game of the season v Exeter. Been hooked ever since.

We've got Davie, Davie Boylen on the wing, on the wing, we've got Davie, Davie Boylen on the wing on the wing etc etc

Matt Tees, Matt Tees, Matt Tees, Matt Tees, born in the King of Blundell Park.

Those were the days.

Weren’t they just? My Dad took me for the first time in the re-election season. Hooked from then on. Hard to imagine 20000+ in the ground now. He always insisted on standing in the open corner where the fanzone is now.

Very good, I've got simliar albums cut out of the telegraph!

In alot of photos of Matt Tees he seems to be hanging in the air and is jumping way higher than the defenders!

We seemed to score 4 in a lot of games that year, and got the most of them attacking the Pontoon in the second half, unless it's my memory playing tricks!

Nowadays it would take more than four games to score 4!

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.
