"Oh, twas my delight on a Wednesday night when Inter Milan scored three" (to the tune of the Lincolnshire Poacher).

As sung at the subsequent derby sometime in the mid sixities.

When it's spring again we'll bring again Ajax from Amsterdam!!!!

I'd say the turning point was nearer to 1975, myself. We went toe to toe in the sixties.

They were in div 2 in until 62 so we didn't play them for the first 2 years.

True, but they then hung around the upper echelons of the division for the rest of the decade and won it twice. They did well, but no better than Everton or United.

They were in the Final of the Cup Winners Cup 1966 but fortunately got turned over by Dortmund bringing great celebrations in our house.

First post - I think I remember Eddie Yates in Coronation Street talking about Duncan Mackenzie in the Cabin with Rita Fairclough.... I was young but I'm sure he did.... Magic...

Well known Blue is Onslow, he told Daisy he would have had to think hard about marring her if he knew she supported the rs and that finding out should be grounds for divorce.
