Thread For The Over 40's Only

[My Boy Harry]

Maybe it would be good to have an old timers thread.

All under 40's are barred from posting.

Perhaps we can have the over 40's giving their recollections on SAFC, their thoughts on the younguns and what they will go through based on our experience and what they think is the future of SAFC as we stand.

Could be some canny memories.....Millwall 1970's, WHU late 70's early 80's, Chelsea 1985, Roker Park etc.

I met up with Frente Bokeron this afternoon in CLS and we had a cracking 2 or 3 hours reminiscing about SAFC and some of the scrapes that we have been in, including our dearly departed who watched SAFC as far back as the 1920's.

It harked back to the brilliant days when football was the game we all loved but it was, as we know, rought as fuck.

some great stories about Millwall in the 1970's, chelsea and WHU in the 1980's and all in all a camaraderie that still exists to this day. We may not have seen some of the lads we grew up with from different Towns and Villages supporting SAFC for years but we all still remember their faces.

the bond is still there. It will always be there.

1st game v QPR after 73 triumph, last game cant remember would have been 85(moved south) clock stand regular- Benno v speedie did happen right infront of memost vivid memory 50 odd thousand v Bolton promotion game won 2-1 running up and down the terraces on the pitch at the end Worst memory- play off v swindon (little did i know)

As for the young-uns they cant help themselves they are products of the instant gratification generation(s) and need our pity more than anything else
