A member (Suzooooo) has sent me a few pictures to post up. I was a bit too young to remember this but I vaguely do. Also how much has town changed?

I was actuallt there but really young! I just remember the fountain in town being sky blue and the noise..... brilliant!

 

[daveccfc]

Can you imagine that happening nowadays? I can't!

There would be half as many people and the Health and Safety would have stopped the people up the lamp posts etc!

My dad has about 60 photos from the day, the team coach, the dressing room and the parade. I will try and find them and scan them up!

 

[Nick]

If you could scan them or get them scanned that would be great.

I don't mind scanning them if not but I would love to have a look through them

Sorry to bump a thread over 3 years old but I just wanted to cheer people up a little. Great time that was!

Wow those pics are ace! Certainly won't have this kind of atmosphere in this City EVER again (and I wasn't around first time to witness it either )

 

[covkid]

Dont know about cheering us up as I have a few spots of water in my eyes... but thanks anyway
