Post by: Donnywolf on November 02, 2013, 11:59:50 pm

You will need to be a certain age to remember this Prog

If you are not that old - just look anyway and see what we had to put up with .... The Indoor League

I think we had some champs from Donny - possibly @ Table Football called Krowpacz and Bowkett  (spelling could be out !) Where are they now

Here is a whole episode - see if anyone can manage to watch the whole thing !

'Kin 'ell now THEER were entertainment.

When I were a bairn, Bar Billiards on 'Indoar League" were THE height of sporting sophistication.

Things we lose along life's path, eh?

Is that a syrup that Freddie's wearing?

Sadly I never saw Fred Trueman in his pomp, but I did see him playing for Derbyshire in the Sunday League. He didn't have his pipe or pint pot, but he did have that beer gut!
