"It was just two world class players going for a 50/50 ball."

John King's description of a crunching tackle on Ossie Ardiles in the FA Cup Third Round tie at White Hart Lane: 10th January 1979.

With three of them in the draw there was always a good chance!  What an odd state of affairs...

Travesty what has happened to them.  I googled it to remind myself of how it all panned out  ( http://www.theguardian.com/football/david-conn-inside-sport-blog/2012/apr/03/northwich-victoria-northern-premier-drill-field ).

They were a club of similar size to us and a proper derby and I wish they were still going.

Fond memories of us getting chased down the platform when waiting for the train home after one game, must have been between 87 and 89. I had to jump off the end and I ripped my cords ( they were in fashion then honestly they were) from virtually top to bottom and I was dreading telling my Mum.  Even at the new ground it was still good even if not the same.

Can't see it being quite the same in Flixton...

Not many pubs around the Valley Road ground......maybe one within walking distance, but a decent social club inside the ground and no problem parking at the ground...........been a few times to watch Flixton when they were a going concern

Anytime you have a 50-50 chance of getting something right, there's a 90% probability you'll get it wrong.
