My google machine tells me he played nearly 170 games for Wigan too. They must have been forgettable. In the late 90s I feel like I pretty much knew who most of the players in the football league were (blame the original Championship Manager) and yet he is a mystery to me. My brother was a Champo player. I relied on getting my soccer knowledge from Shoot! magazine and then later FourFourTwo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenorthremembers Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Tough year for me. I was ten, it was the year my Father passed away from a heart attack at 38. Guy was my best friend and hero, watched and learned so much sports with/from him. Learned a lot of tough lessons from his passing but God has blessed me ten fold since then. Now I have two sons to share those lessons with. My oldest called me five minutes after Sundays game and before I could say hello he yelled "I told you thatd beat the Seahawks" Looking through my Dads old year book cleaning up my garage couple weeks back and his senior quote was "Enjoy it, it goes too fast." I agree. Enjoy it and Go Bills! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are still on my book shelf in my bedroom and I love digging one out occasionally and having a read. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've kept the programmes from some of the bigger City games over the years and any I got when watching England. I do have a genuine 1966 World Cup Final programme in the loft which my other half got me for Christmas a few years back. I still love completing a sticker album but only for major international tournaments these days. That's one thing I stopped doing in the 90's when other distractions happened.

SinceThe70s Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 In November 1993 I was single and turned 30 (for the first time). Got a brand new pair of skis and was planning an early season trip to Utah. Company I had been with was relocating to northern Virginia and I was offered a package to move which I declined. At the time I was working on a proposal and had we won they would have opened an office in Denver. Me and the new skis would have relocated there in a heartbeat but we ended up losing the proposal. That was really disappointing. I'll always wonder how that would have changed my life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleeding Bills Blue Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 I just watched Jurassic Park yesterday, and that came out in 1993. Honestly though, the dinosaurs still look better than some CGI today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjt328 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 I was 14-years-old, living in Philadelphia. At that point of my life watching the NFL, I had never witnessed the Bills finish worse than 9-7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
