If I rem right it was 3-1 Cardiff at the time and Chelsea left early to try and take the Bob Bank, it ended up 3-3.


Pictures were made by Chelsea lads then?


Aye, those lot didn't stay long, weren't up for it at all. It was a bit different when what seemed like their Dads tuned up when we were feeling cocky by the Ninian Pub!

Yes they were Goats, City ran back at first then charged down, Chelsea slowed down, OB with one dog closed the gate.
