[sky_blue_up_north]

Another era, we'll never get this kind of feeling again. The world has moved on.. great footage social history. Still makes the hair on the back of head stand up seeing, Hill, Gibbo and rest singing the Sky Blue song

deano, well bloody done. You are my all time favorite poster.
Get some more films on here,it makes me emotional watching this stuff ,and you have made my day much more enjoyable. Great days and all the oldies on here will enjoy this stuff and the young uns will see the days when we had a decent team and what it was like when we went into games thinking we will win every one of them,(well most of them)
Thanks

how long did sky blue express run for?

 

[deanocity3]

stopped around 1972ish

 

[covboy9]

why? it mustave been great whilst it lasted

 

[deanocity3]

stopped due to lack of interest and holligans

 

[Macca]

Great thing about these videos is not just the games but the happy memories of simpler times, no frills football, remembering old friends and places. If I m this nostalgic at 40 god knows what I ll be like at 70! Don t suppose you have the 4-3 against Spurs?

 

[deanocity3]

Yes I do along 700 other matches I have

For he's a jolly good fellow
For he's a jolly good fellow
For he's a jolly good fellow

And say so all of us
And say so all of us
And so say all of us

For he's a jolly good fellow
.................................etc

Well done Deano

Far Gosford Street / Gosford Green in the early evening just after we lifted the cup.

Alan Partridge provides the camera work - stopping at one point to film his dog having a shit
