Quite a reasonable sumariser on the radio,however he is known for saying (on a report) "......(team) .....scored against the run of play,after 30 seconds". ...
In the early commercial radio days I used to listen to LBC for reports and score up dates. They used to link up with reporters from radio stations for the...
I wonder what the report was like in London for the Reading game yesterday then!!! The Seagulls have the same bias on Southern Counties Radio, the best was...
I have added a photo to Bob Browns Palace old timers album. It is a photo I came across when flicking through 90 minutes magazines. It is Geoff Hurst & John...
Bit harsh Bill, just because they played out of their skins against your lot [as usual] and then laid down and died at at the Auto Traders stadium yesterday...
as usual ? 2nd EVER win against United in premier league.don't listen to old wives tales,listen to me . they also beat United in the last year of Division...
RE ... I just hope Leeds are not destined to be away from the Premiership so long younger fans are going to wonder why it is funny... Went to home town for...
Its always very misleading looking at the goal highlights on the Beeb but it seemed to me that the Hammers didn't exactly cheat, just that their defence plans...
got a link to the photo please ? when Fergie had a go at Leeds (and i know Bob will correct me if i am wrong) the following happened................. lost to...
It in the album Palace old timers on page 2 of the photos on the 60/70's group website. ... From: bill laing To: sixtiesandseventiessoccer@yahoogroups.com ...
Alls fair in love and football, Bill you should as an old pro know that. Fergie has won many mind games as well as on the pitch, KK at Newcastle etc. I think...
I can remember John Salako going in goal when Martyn was sent off. Seemed a strange decision at the time because Salako is not the tallest player around but he...
David Webb did play a whole game in goal for Chelsea.Bobby Moore did go in goal for a LC semi,don't remember if he saved the penalty.think it was at OT. about...
Yes the Chelsea book I borrowed recently mentioned that Webby performance. Apparently the players were wondering what would be the crowd's reaction when Webby...
Sorry just re read your email, Yes I agree why did Bert Head move Hoadley ? Also thought he was played out of position a lot, thought he was better as a...
i think the 2 0 LC game was the only game Arsenal lost at home in that,their double ? season......did you go to the 1 1 draw three days later ? that was my one...
Yes I do thought he looked a good prospect and I was dis-appointed to see him go. Remember him scoring a goal against Norwich in a 6-0 win near the end of the...
I don't think so Bill, I started to miss home games around 1971 due to the inevitable clash of interests. I also found Hoadley's transfer to Orient hard to ...
Yes it was there only home defeat and yes I did go to the 1.1 draw. Got a feeling now the brain has ticked into gear that Hoadley played in the 1.1 rather than...
There was a load of players that came thorugh around that time that only played 1 or 2 games. Cook,Cutler,Forster were others If I remember rightly Danny...
I was wondering that, as you say Vansittart is not a common name in the UK. Though when I worked in Dover [thats how I heard about Joff] we had a Dutch guy...
Bob Dunning - I apologise in advance for either bringing on a mass wave of nostalgia or making you even more depressed re your current state of affairs. I am...
i knew Wally as well ! think he played for Reading.Martin was manager of Leatherhead when he stopped playing.the last time i saw either of them was about...
I think Martin is something to do with the coaching at Brighton now, where either his or Paul's son, Adam is a player. Would they be the first family that goes...
An Everton supporter who is a fellow Councillor told me an interesting story about Alan Whittle. He claimed that the reason Whittle was transferred to Palace...
As an O's fan we were the lucky recepients of many Palace players when big Mal had his post Bert Head clearout Hoadley was a magnificent central defender -...
