    Original London Tykes formed in 1980

    I was secretary 1989-1991 YEARS Before premiership promotion....

    Lived in Tarn 1976-1978 and the Reds were the first team I watched.

    Back in 1980......

    I think they had around 70 members. What's the current figure with regards the London Tykes?

    RE: a serious answer to the original question

    Reading your summary, I know who the fan from Potters Bar is who choose one team from different divisions. I even travelled with him to some games. Glad he's still a Red and a Gills fan. Were you part of the London Supporters mid 80s-90, if so our paths must have crossed

    I cant see why the lad has got so much abuse for asking a question

    If he is told one thing, until he is told the truth he will believe that.
    He only wanted a simple fecking answer, yet you lot give him abuse. Numpties of the highest order.

    Ignorant *****.

    Really you can't see!

    I'd hardly call it abuse though.Micky taking and leg pulling certainly, but he does get a genuinedetailed answer, after a good hard yank of the ankle

    I really upset myself on holiday

    Took Redders autobiography to read. About 20 pages in I found out he wasa L**ds United fan as a lad.</p>

    It's really got me mixed up. I'm still stuggling to come to terms with it</p>

    Depends what match

    </p>

    Well over60showed up for Wembley. Average home match will attract between 6 and 12.</p>

    So, over 50, but that includes WAGS and the lasses fellas/husbands.</p>

    To be fair, I don't think you can throw much weight behind who a player supports as a kid

    </p>

    I'll let Redders off, he loves Barnsley enough to forgive him. Its not like he's played for Leeds.</p>
