    Shows how rare loyalty to a club is these days and why every bfc fan should try and attend to honour Bobby.

    It was a memorable neet,I was still at schooil at the time and went with a few mates,one of em had the habit of slipping his arms out of his sleeves with his coit still zipped up and then flapping from side to side and ****ting thi round the napper with his armless sleeves,anyway soon as the final whistle went we grabbed the fooker and tied his sleeves to crush barrier and left the annoying twohat screaming for help,sithi.

    March 15 1977. Johny steele testamonial... Reds 3 Don Revie international XI 6. Att 8000

    Scorers: Barnsley, ronnie wigg, kenny brown and John Peachy - don revie XI, ray hankin 3, david McCreery, Alan Woodward, Brian greenhoff.

    Teams: springett, Murphy, collins, pugh, pickering, saunders, Lathan, wigg, Peachey, Otulakowski, brown.. Subs miller and a very young mick mccarthy

    Jim brown blunts, Kenny clement man city, Alex forsyth man utd, Brian greenhoff man utd, JOHN CHARLES ex leeds, Alan woodward sheff utd, Peter lorimer leeds, Jimmy conway man city, Ray hankin man city, jimmy greenhoff man utd, David mcreery man utd, Sub... Chris mcgrath

    Last minute drop outs included the charlton brothers, david harvey and joe royle

    Not a bad turn out of players for a lower league club testamonial. Cant imaging premier league players rocking up to something like this now.

    Main thing I remember is being very impressed by macca when he came on,

    What year was this? I remember being at a game against Man Utd, late 80's am guessing? Was it 3-2 to us or summat? Sure Currie scored.
