    A trip down amnesia lane for supporters of a certain age!!! :D

    A high quality A3 signed and numbered limited edition print will be available to buy from the BFC Supporters Trust in a couple of days. Perfect for Xmas. Gally will be posting a link very soon.

    I will also have a small number with me tomorrow at Watford.

    Out of interest does anybody know what year John Smiths Bitter was put on the Brewery Stand roof? I don't think I remember it without it

    Brewery Stand isn't in that picture. It's The Pony and the West Stand.

    Thanks very much everybody, I'm quite chuffed with it.

    They cost £30 including postage and packing. Must emphasise these are high quality collector's prints, not a bog standard poster you'd find in the club shop. Will be posted flat in cardboard mailers and will fit a standard A3 frame and mount.

    I will be doing 2 or 3 more over the next year or so, of different views of the old ground. It will be a nice series to collect. :)

    I will keep my eye out to see if you do one showing the west stand terrace/old disabled box/spion kop area. I used to stand in the far corner of the West with my Dad so would like a copy of that
