Just looking through some old City stuff just to give my lad something else to look at (He's suffering from Acute Sky Blue Withdrawal Syndrome), and I came across this.

Not a terrible idea in and of itself, but £100k and £50k are pretty big sums, even for our Leamington-based supporters.

Did anyone take it up, I wonder?

Yeah some did it was in the press at the time. Two that I remember were Geoff Mann the architect bloke who had the suit made for the cup final, and David Shortland who is something to do with property I think, certainly seen the Shortland name on some building development.

How things can change! It all looks like a sick joke now.

The last page is laughable in our current situation. "Vision, Ambition, Determination, Good Fortune...and Your Support." Under this mob every single one of those has gone.

I wonder what happened with the money? Presumably they got it back.

"....if we are not in the Premier League by 2189/90 then you will receive your money back in full*"

*You must personally apply to the club.

I saw a few of her videos in the 80s. Big girl. Don't remember "Destination Europe" though. Have you got a copy.
