Last time I see Lester was in Rome when England drew 0-0 in 97 was good mates years ago
I think I might know you. If you're who I think you are we first met on a train to Luton. You were with Lester, Chris, Chinese Gus and a lad called Wayne? I'd come down from York as usual. Might remember me as the suspected undercover ob. Woulda been 93/94.
Could be completely wrong though.
i remember that day and the guy(you) being accused of being undercover OB. Was that the day a couple of luton got chased down an alley way and were then seen jumping garden fences?
I'm sure Arfur said a little while ago that Ginger Ben is a cabbie and now goes down Millwall.
He can keep Scooby company....
Ginger was an absolute loon at the time and i remember having to sign young ben out of leicester nick after being arrested for being drunk and disorderly as he was under age and i had to get him London Euston where his dad picked him up!!!lol
Sorry for the language but fucking hell this thread is ace. Happy days indeed. I dropped out in the Prem days so the 90s was my era. I lived for the weekend back then and didn't care about the 400mile round trip for a home game. I was young and life was good.
Mark D***tt was also the best one for getting nicked d&d. Always had a stupid ritual of buying two pints and downing one, then was out of it after about two hours. Would either get nicked or fall asleep in the pub, there was never a middle ground.
Remember a post match party at his house where he poked a cigarette in his own eye, and @Swerve had to take him to hospital I think.
Mark was another great character, wanna be hooligan! i think he was actually a baker! tranmere away on a tuesday night had to go by coach as we could not get a train back and remember him throwing donuts around the coach for most of the journey!

The first time I was accused of being ob to my face was at Southend. Stupid fucking rumour but Lester was convinced at one point and threatened to do me at Filbert Street but his girlfriend at the time (Jenny? ) stopped him.
We had an all ticket game at Filbert St and PC Rogers was selling tickets outside when Leaburn scored the equalizer in the 89th minute a certain individual got nicked for running on the pitch and he got his ticket off Rogers

No mate, had sandy blond hair. Now, I have no hair.

I was convinced they'd made the wrong decision. Shows what I knew.

Larry the lamb (Wayne) August , lester, ginger Ben, mark d,
What ever happend with those guys
Wayne was around a lot longer than the others when we all grew up
All mentioned in one thread the spooning of august was lost in the back of my nogging but is now back right at the front
Ben did go Sweden and the fella on the top of the tent just after the england fan blew his whistle certainly looked like him
Reading away was that the hatchet game or the one after
