Blue and Amber Census
Its clear following TMLS history of B and A, and STFC on the internet, that times have changed on B and A, with some of the older posters moving on or posting less, and a new breed of people joining the board… so its about time we got some facts out out there to help everyone understand each other a little better (for the record this is the sort of thread B and A was full of back in the day!!)
So I have developed this “census” for everyone to fill in and other posters to read so that we get to know a bit more about each other than the fact you HATE Terry Dunfield (me) or if your backing Paul Simpson all the way this season and next!!
Feel free to explain you answer if you want... I shall do mine fist now so set a good example....
General Cheers – Pricey

Most important for the Town was beating Aldershot on pens at Stoke, vital that we bounced back straight away, great scenes back in Salop dancing in the streets All time Favourite Player? Jemson is the best player I've seen playing for Town by a mile but his antics could be too much at times, so I will say Paul Evans, we never really replaced him All time most disliked player? Never really saw the point in Dean Peer All time fav manager? We were playing the best quality opposition under Fred Davies so will have to be him, a bit of best of a bad bunch - some of the football we played under Ratcliffe was absolutely superb but how a world class centre half couldn't sort out our defence will forever effect his standing All time least fav manager? Just missed the Bond era, would have to be King Best STFC goal witnessed? Gay Meadow or New Meadow? Gay Meadow Have you ever played on the Gay/New Meadow? No Steve Anthrobus or Nathen Elder…. Discuss? Need to see what Elder can do but Throb lives long in the memory as a cult hero Do you sing at games? When I went I dabbled Have you ever done a full season of all games in every competition following STFC? No, best I used to do was all home games and 8-10 away games Worst situation you found yourself in through following STFC? Leighton Buzzard station a few years back after a London game (Barnet I think?) was interesting to say the least for a variety of reasons but the only really threatening position I encountered with Town was at the Wolves pre-season friendly when the police decided it was a good idea to escort the Dingle thugs around the perimeter of the pitch General football ---- Preferred tactic? 442 Best Non STFC game attended? Whilst not the best quality game I've seen, I really enjoyed being at San Siro in 2005 when Maldini scored both goals in a 2-1 win over Reggina, a fantastic player right at the end of his career and that was we were told the first time he had scored 2 goals in a game Have you ever been to a world Cup? No but went to games at Euro 2004 and U-21 champs in 2002 Have you ever attended a game outside of the UK? Yes, above were in Portugal and Switzerland, have seen several league games in Spain, Italy and France Do you have a second club and who is it? Always used to love Liverpool as a young kid but no allegiances anymore All time favourite player? Kenny Dalglish All time favourite manager? Bob Paisley Favourite away ground? With Town always used to like going to The Shay for the all round Halifax trip and decent cheap ale Least favourite away ground? Wembley Do you play football, if so for who, and in what position? No B and A ----- Things you enjoy most about the B and A message board? The variety of views and topics when good debate is articulated well This you like least about the B and A message board? The cocks who have plagued this board for the past year , some new members, some established members who should know better but can't resist provicating comments and not using their brain before they type How did you find out Blue and Amber? Can't recall When did you first join the B and A community? Early 2004 Have you ever met anyone off here in real life? A few but not as many as I would have liked
