Brian Haigh unfortunately   died in 1992, it  was his older brother  Dennis who set fire to himself and is now in a wheelchair.

Now that is a superstition that hasn't worked too well over the last couple of years.
he must have spent a heck of a lot of time in the toilets.

Ive seen Hopey a few times still lives in Rosso I think.Yes he was a West Ham fan with a couple more from Rosso.If we were playing on a Friday night or didn't have a game on Saturday, i sometimes went to a game with them.

It was the church on the corner of Duke St. The lap dancing club which I think is now closed used to be The Lord Nelson on the corner of Printing Office St.

I told you mad mick doesn't visit this part of the forum as he didn't respond to the bait. This clearly shows he doesn't have any interest in Rovers and is a WUM.

Interestingly Nudga, our Resident Idiot has been conspicuous by his absence this last few days. Off on his jollies perhaps? Fallen of a cliff? Or even committed hari-kiri hopefully?

What happened to the bloke called 'hippo' - from rossington. Used to have his hair red and white and at point his motor rovers colours too (which was pinched due to this)

One bloke picking his snout, another caught mid yawn or somebody has jabbed they're walking crutch in his other eye, it must be double ended his mate has the same affliction, cannabis Colin in his new t-shirt, a monk with his prayer cap on bottom right, and loads of fans ignoring the yellow chevron sign.

I'm on there. Far left, three from the back. Happy days.

Also, we must've been one of the most consistent replica shirt wearing bunches in the league around that time. Remember the Tranmere "giant teatowel" comments? Brilliant.
