Title: FA Cup
Post by: One Foot in the Grave on August 21, 2021, 06:56:35 PM: We won't be playing Macc this season. It's good to score 4 goals away from home - but not if you concede 6 !

I seem to remember me and a mate used to chant for the allotments (and Kenneth Dewey and Sons) on the bus on the way to Ambrose. Believe it or not... (Then again, a bunch of us were chanting for Shugborough on the way back from Bromsgrove!).

The logic there would be badly offset by being unable to play Droylsden next !

Post by: ManagementGuru on August 23, 2021, 09:43:58 AM: Well, the second time we played Spurs after Southport, we had Wigan instead of Droylesden!

Post by: Hugh on August 24, 2021, 03:10:34 AM: I wonder if any of their fans remember the rivalry these days? I remember at a friendly the other year some of their fans sang the red red robin song - I don't know how much you can read into that though.
