Thanks for the update fella, hope you get a good result against Sheffield United.
Was mooching about on Youtube the other day and watched that play off final against Chelsea from 1988 (it could have so nearly been us) when it kicked off royally afterwards.The commentator read out the 'Boro squad at the end and I hadn't realised there had been a previous version of 'Villa reserves' that pre-dated the Southgate, Ehiogu and Boeteng exodus as Dean Glover, Paul Kerr, Mark Burke and Kevin Poole were in there

I remember that because our postman at the time was a Boro fan. He got into trouble because he always took miles too long on his round. And it turns out that one of the reasons he was so slow is that he was having it off with my sister.

Not that I was ever a postman, nor did I have it off with your sister (to my knowledge), but postmen having it off with sisters...well, it's what Pulp songs are made of.
