Firstly Pete Jones , at the PoS Dinner, compares the current side with the great 1969/70 Promotion side , apparently on the basis of a sound defensive record. He conveniently forgot the fact that team played in a higher division , gave Liverpool and Man Utd tests in away cupties ( including taking the lead at Anfield ! ) and had quality players such as Dave Gaskell, Eddie May, Gareth Davies , Arfon Griffiths (peerless ) , Ian Moir , Ray Smith ......and the Football League's top scorer Albert Kinsey in their ranks!! I like Pete and also Mark Griffiths , who repeated similar nonsense in today's Leader about records equalled by this season's side , but question their grasp on reality.
Meanwhile , as you say , the Big Issues are shuffled off into the distance. Very depressing.

Bang on

Well said
