    I suspect power-cuts and evening matches, and some afternoon games in the winter under floodlights, might just be incompatable. Or do they all flick there lighters on in Nottingham to enable the games to go ahead?

    Yes must just have been Derby who escape the three day week Couldn't have been Brighton because they averaged 14,188 and definitely didn't affect Reading they average was 5,188 in 1973

    A bit middle class though isn't it, with plenty of spare dosh. There's nothing wrong with that (I work in the aviation industry myself), but I'd never pretend I've had it as tough in life as fellow Nottinghamshire men working down the mines or in factories.

    Not the brightest are you who has pretended they had it hard I was only two in 1973 How thick are you don't you know in 1973 there was 43 working mines in Derbyshire and 68 factories in Derby alone Don't mind you writing your clap but just go to the trouble to Google the facts first it's not hard MTG

    Hey! Hooray Henry.......

    1. This is a forum for DCFC fans and a few occasional visitors
    2. It is not a place for total strangers to come selling their dodgy wares. I wager those copies you have are bootlegged
    3. Going on the premise that you are selling some video game, I would wager that the vast majority on here don't do vid games
    4. Most of us are old school and a "stache" is a growth of hair between your top lip and your nose
