As it's quiet, thought I'd put this up, a brief mention of the Blues (6 mins 30 in) but, before and after that, some of you may recognise mums and dads (even grannies) ;

[Special Blue]

I watched that as it went out. I was at that school at the time, that's my playground and thats my Mum giving Danny fish and chips.

I was also at that school ( left about 6 years before this) recognise a few faces.
Was also around the time I served Bobby (R.I.P) in my parents shop in westcliff.

The 0-1 defeat to Wrexham, that Bobby Moore mentions ,was the first of 5 defeats where we didn’t score ! The 6th game was v Torquay and the only goal was Steve Phillips penalty which spared us applying for re-election.

Apologies if this gem from 1975 has been put up before, the Blues playing at Charlton on a mud bath. Seems like the fad for loanee centre-halfs from Sheff Utd started many moons ago and.....oh Malcolm! ;

Wrong thread. This is about transfers. How is this relevant?

And a goal here from SVC at Oxford ;

Great find WB. My favourite Stan goal and a game we were under an immense amount of pressure and if memory serves me well, that goal was very late in the game giving us an almost certain win when it hit the back of the net.

Today's offering is a 3-2 win over Burnley in 1989. Not the best picture quality, but it features that great forward line of Crown, McDonough and Bennett (plus an obscene challenge from Dave Martin) ;

Yes I don`t remember Brisley or Mckenzie - probably for good reasons. I too liked the all white strip
