Hahaha.. My bad! I should have said near death..

Only last week someone was telling me about  Keeley having to lay low after the negative press for that "tackle" on Fucillo.

I had never realised that Fucillo actually played the following week!

I remember it as happening near to the Riverside where I was stood. Obviously the mists of time become cloudy but I’m sure Glen kicked him in the neck!

Me and the king, circa 1978 when I was 14. It was taken at an event at the Craven Heifer in Darwen.

Record goalscorers for Rovers (Garner) and Stanley (Hargreaves) on here with Brotherston, Butcher, Round, Bailey, Metcalfe. Think it's around Feb 78 at Accrington.

Was this match not part of the transfer deal which saw David Hargreaves come to Ewood?  I say that because the changing rooms remind me of the ones at Stanley around that time and it appears that Hargreaves in the captain.

It is.

I can spot Tim Parkin, Paul Round and Brian Morley and possibly Brian Moran. Is Ramsbottom the keeper?
