I have never seen this before - it looks great.  Unbelievable amount of history and detail.  The referees section is interesting.  Craig Pawson and John Brooks hate us it seems.

Years ago, stood on the Holte someone would always pipe up:
"Who's the ref?"

To which some wag would reply
"The one in the black"

My mate, on hearing the name, a Shapter or Midgley for example would always say without fail, whoever it was

"He hates us"

According to that Kevin Friend reffed us 18 times of which we won 5 and lost 10 including all of the 6 (and 8 of the final 10).

What surprised me was that Dieter Schoch, he of the really weird performance against Celta Vigo in the Intertoto at The Hawthorns in 2000, actually was in charge of the 3-0 win away to Stromsgodset in 1998.

Was that when we were finally signing Benni McCarthy?
