This gives me chills.....

Missing out there Pags.....I know we’ve won League 1 since these titles, but 90 and 92 are really special years...I was in my early 20s and I’d just moved to Canada (for the 92 Div 1 win), and technology back then was waiting for the results to be posted on a newspaper phone in sports section - it was murder waiting for the Sheff Utd v Leeds result...

...One of the most ridiculous games ever -with the bizarre (you might be a blunt but thankyou) Brian Gayle beauty as the icing on the cake!

I wasn’t born until 1987. I loved the promotion from league one but I know it does not compare to 90 and 92 which is why I’ve been so excited about this season as it just seemed like our year, even more so than last year.
However I want it to be safe to return and not rush. I’ve lost a family member since this shutdown (not covid but was tested) and it was surreal and horrible. Funeral was ten of us. No service, music I played from my phone and I wasn’t allowed to hug my family and had to maintain a 6ft distance. I don’t want others to go through that if they don’t need to.

I totally sympathise Pags - Immediate family bereavement last Thursday - we spoke to coroner yesterday and we cant do anything in terms of planning a funeral due to backlog with present crisis.

As you related, sounds like the ceremony will be awful - cant go near family members allowed to attend, which is variable depending on local policy.

Please everyone keep safe.

Sorry to hear this Pags, Rev, not only is it heartbreaking that you can't say goodbye properly, but nothing canoes that later on, it's a memory stuck forever, I guess amongst loads of memories good and bad we'll have forever from this.

Cheers Jonty - your a gentleman.

Sorry for your losses Pags and Rev.....incredibly tough situations to deal with, My mum and dad are still in Manchester and my sisters both in London, and the thought of something bad happening looms large when you know not only will you not be able to have a proper send off, but probably can’t travel there anyway.
All the best to you both.

but nothing canoes that later on

should have been

but nothing can change that later on

Sorry!

Originally we weren’t even allowed to attend. Two days after she died they changed their guidance so thankfully there was a little bit of closure.

Thank you for your condolences. It was a shock with how quick it all happened and to be honest, it still doesn’t feel like it happened.

The sooner this is over the better. I think everyone’s mental health is taking a right kick in. I’m trying to help littlest learn to walk and eldest potty train. I’ve gone a bit stir crazy!
