The old ones are the best
Nice one Big Ian, your reminisce reminds me of years ago when I was a coach driver and delivered some fans to Hillsborough for a match.
I got chatting to another driver and discovered he had just dropped off 40 fans from Middlewood Hospital just up the road.
How do you get them all back when the game is over?
Easy he says, I just get the first 40 to come out of the ground.
The old ones are the best.
