Just noticed this from Pride of Nottingham's Twitter...
"On this day in 1987, Derek Pavis completed his takeover of Notts County from Jack Dunnett,"
Let's hope for a new beginning like that one this week.
Sad indeed Swale , my dad was one of them. I remember taking me ode man for a meal (he even had half a bitter with it) not long before he died in the hospitality suite. The players not involved that day were floating around and I swear if the ode bugger had had his autograph book with him. Back to that day, one of the things I remember most is the god awful Brighton kit.

That Brighton kit has to be the worst to ever grace Wembley. Looked like someone had downed 8 pints of shippos and brought back up on a white shirt.
Great day though. Clive Walker tore us apart early doors....and it could easily have gone either way at that point.
That was the Tesco bag shirt wasn't it?
I also remember walking around the ground and just seeing Brighton fans everywhere. We were totally outnumbered that day.
Seem to remember it being worse than that.....
