Were you not aware that other , rather more important events were happening in '66 ?

See my contribution to the World Cup thread

I sat and watched the 66 World Cup Final in B&W on our little TV set at home, the occasion of the first match at Headingley was late August/early Sept of the same year, that song was #1 in the charts in the last week in August.

I only heard the song the other day

It's a classic isn't it?

True supporters of the club wouldn't want to see it relocated anywhere unless the survival depended on it.

Careful what you wish for fellas. There was a similar thread to this on the Gateshead board about 10 years ago so the RFL moved them to West Hull. Harsh.

Poveglia is a small island floating in the lagoons of Venice. In stark contrast to the beauty of its surroundings, the island is a festering blemish. The waves reluctantly lapping its darkened shores will often carry away the polished remains of human bones. When the first outbreak of bubonic plague swept through Europe, the number of dead and dying in the city of Venice became unbearable. The bodies were piling up, the stench was oppressive, and something had to be done. The local authorities decided to use Poveglia as a dumping ground for the diseased bodies.

Nice but a little too far for home games.

No idea tbh but i'm sure damo would be be a "hit" in there!

Care in the community Rob mate – it’s the only explanation as to why people like Damo are free to roam the fair streets of our great city.

Its probably just as well though when you read stories like the one I read in the deeds to our last house.

In a nutshell (see what I did there), the bloke who'd bought the house in 1935 (Mavis Lane) came home from the war a nervous wreck and in the mid 1950's he was committed to High Royds after a nervous breakdown. These days they'd treat you with drugs and a few months off work, back then they just locked you away and threw away the key, he was incarcerated at High Royds until he finally committed suicide in the 1970s - all of this was written in an affidavit as part of the deeds as his wife had kept the house until she went into care in the late 1990s, their niece had to declare all of this to get a power of attourney.

I know of two people who have had what is loosely described as a "nervous breakdown" in the last two years, both were treated successfully and back at work (albeit different work) within a few months.

awful, pointless, irrelevant thread.

When it comes to seriousness southstander.com is at the pinnacle of it!

When it comes to being a fat lazy waster, you're the pinnacle of it.
