Little help needed for Chris Nicholl

[Pete]

1977, League Cup first replay at Hillsborough. On the outskirts of the city my Dad asked a factory nightwatchman how far to the ground. "About a mile, mate". There was a car park nearby with spaces so we parked up and started walking. It took ages, more like three or four miles than one, and the first half was well underway when we got there. Of course, after the match we had no idea where the car was. Wandering the streets of Sheffield until late into the night, we chanced upon a copper on patrol and told him of our problem. The fact that we'd parked opposite a factory, and I remembered the car park was next to a railway line, was enough information for him to send us in the right direction. We got home at about two in the morning.

I might be wrong but after the sad death of Ian Ross he is one of only 4 living ex Captains who have lifted a trophy for the Villa.

GIVE HIM A CAR PARK SPACE!

Does the 4 include JT (Cup of Traditions) & Stan Staunton (Inter Toto 2001)?

NRC for the Peace Cup?

Has said car been located yet?
Had it been a Vauxhall Corsa it would be in bits by now and the components distributed across the City

Five. Mortimer was injured for the second leg of the Super Cup so McNaught was captain. Add Richardson and Townsend.

Wasn't it Schmeichel in the 2nd leg of the Intertoto final? That's what Rob Bishop's book says anyway. I remember thinking that when Schmeichel held the cup it was almost lost in the palm of his hand. The size of the cup accurately indicated the importance of the competition.

I was thinking Nicholl, Mortimer, Richardson & Townsend but those other major trophies clearly slipped my mind.

There’s been 4 at Wembley who are Dixon, Ross, Richardson and Townsend. Nicholl lifted the cup at Old Trafford.

Technically it's 5 at Wembley

There was Wembley, Hillsborough and Old Trafford for one trophy.  Saw every minute.  Except the winning goal in the fog,

Last year I was sent for a consultation appointment to Heartlands Hospital. I had only ever been there once before and that was for surgery some years earlier. This time, unlike previously, I drove there and parked in what I thought was an easy place to find in their super large car park. I had no idea though just how enormous that hospital is. After my appointment I was also to discover just how super enormous the car park is. It took me more than half an our to track my car down. It's an awful feeling staring at a sea of cars whilst having no idea where your car is, since the place where you thought it was parked wasn't where it was actually parked. It's literally the stuff of nightmares.

Just after I'd passed my test I volunteered to drive 3 of my mates to a gig at the NEC.
All was fine until we came out after the gig and couldn't find the car. After ½ hour of walking around we realised we were on the wrong car park.

I have spent over an hour looking for my car on a car park only to be told that I had gone shopping in my now ex-wife's car.

You could start my Austin Atlantic with a paper clip.  I used to leave it with the paper clip in place outside our house in Sparkhill hoping it would be pinched.
