Seeing young lads being past overhead at Mount pleasent to get them to the front so they could see, and one going the other way who kept messing about, he dissapeared over the wall at the back.

My grandad trying to lift me over the turnstyles at BV.

Happy days.

Indeed, sending the dad into the club at the front whilst sneaking off for a quick try at the Eddy end and waiting for players to come out of the new tunnel and sign autographs as they went down the old tunnel.
