I almost forgot about that rule.We could only play 4 non Welsh players wasn"t it ?

Can you imagine any Prem club playing in Europe under those restrictions these days.No more than 4 non English players.lol

The kit man would have to play.

In 25 years time I bet there won't be a thread remembering the time we went to Ibrox in the godforsaken biscuit cup where we played Rangers kids and lost.

If we'd been able to put our proper team out again petru Ploisti in the mid 90s we probably would have beaten them and could have got a lucrative tie in the next round. Gutted.

You really are a miserable so and so . Used to think we were on the same wavelength when we were both having a go at the bubble but your continual lack of positivity now puts us well apart and you something close to Foxy.

Good, I'm happy with that. Foxy has been right all along about 'fan ownership' so I've got no issue with that.

You really are a miserable sod.
In twenty five years time I'll start a thread to recall my great day out in Glasgow , Celtic fans , escort back to the station.
Hopefully medical advances will have kept me alive as I'll be ninety five , probably still have my season ticket though.

I've made a diary note to bring misery onto that thread too. We'll probably be called Strategy FC by then.
