    You remember Whirligig, Six Five Special, The Appleyards, All your Own, Billy Bunter on the TV.....9 inch screen black and white....with a metal coat hanger for an arial, which seemed to work better than the very limited availability of ones you could buy in the shops.
    Not forgetting Educating Archie and Wakey Wakey on the Radio!

           A clip of Prince William taking his first steps on the Government House lawn in the early eighties in NZ still comes up from time to time.  Makes me feel ancient to know I actually have more hair than William who’s going bald.

    When you’re too old to be the fan @Off_it would want to help the club engage with the suppprters.

    In my view this needs to be someone "new", enthusiastic, probably young (under 30), with a fresh approach and ideas, a willingness to reach out to all and not carrying around previous baggage from the Trust, CARD, the museum, various supporters clubs, etc, etc. 

    That way nobody has a pre-judged opinion from the start and we can all equally slag them off from the get go.

    Edit: Sorry, I meant "support", "Support them from the get go".
