As a result I missed Gordon Nisbett being sent off in the last minute. I still have the occasional nightmare. :sad:
Yep, still hurts!
As does the irony that I’ve still to meet amongst all of the “nouveau riche” “lovely luxurious Mad Stad” mob, a single current Reading supporter who ever went to Elm Park!
Talking of Hoops, against the other “blue & white hoops lot” Boxing Day 1967 anyone? I forget how good or bad we were, as I only remember one incident.....that diving, cheating, smirking, winking barsteward Marsh Grrrr!
