Puzzlin az tha gets owder the strange dreams thy az, Alzheimers? PTSD, doubt that, just one week mid 60s at the slaughter house owd Aldershot, Maida Barracks Parachute Regiment Academy for young hooligans enuff ta freeten the most hardy ta dee-ath! Out of 50 young hopefulls only 13 of uz med it ta the end o the 9 month torture chamber, Them the days when boot, fist n severe discipline wuz the norm, sweatin mi bollox off just thinkin about it! Strange dream the other neet, standin on the pig stye kop guin berserk after wtchin gud owd Cec Coldwell scoore a 20 yarder! Comin outa the pig farm after winnin 3-0 guin upta a piggy n sayin, "We gid ya a reight twattin theer, n warrabout that Cec Coldwell screamer?" Strange look from the piggy who replies, "Your ant beat uz three nowt n Cec Coldwell az never scoored agee-anst uz!" Confusin or wot? Next day tryin ta unravel the fart in mi brain, it finally came ta me worrit wuz all about. 62/63 season FA Cup 3rd round away at Bury 0-0 draw, replay at the lane 2-2, that,s when Lindsey who went on ta play fer Shanklys Liverpool played for em. All square so toss of a coin o weer ta play the 2nd replay, either Old Trafford or the Pig Stye. The Pig Stye it was so 18,000 hardy Blades fans get shit on their plates o meat n attend. N guess wot?Owd Cec scoores a 20 yard screamer in a 3-0 win, so cud be am not az loopy az a thought a wuz!
