You read it here first. (a Stefano winkey -> ;-))
You could be right .... same as we did with Billy Kitchener from West Ham. Loans didn't exist then so we had to sign him on 'permanent' terms but with an agreement that we would transfer him back for nothing when West Ham wanted him. They did and he went straight into a top tier game within days of transferring back. Glad you can spell 'winkey'! ;-)

Yes, but you two old gits are talking about an era in football when young Mr Hovis was still delivering bread on a black bicycle with square wheels, times in football have moved on in the last 100 years.. :)

Yes Frank Prince said that to me a couple of seasons ago. I told him that he was right, in that none of the first team we were watching at the time would have got in our Western League team 40 years ago. I managed to keep a straight face, so he had no idea if it was tongue in cheek or not (and he didn't have the benefit of a winkey!).

Mind you, I did prefer it when there was no crossbar or offside rule! ;-)

Yeah, we're talking an era when the TUFC Reserves Stefano played in was equivalent to Conference South of today.
