Nice touch from last night... (13 replies)
Went to the pub on the other side of the M61 after the game for a quick one. It's up to the roundabout and turn right. I bumped into a small group of 'older' Blues fans, lovely people. They'd made a bit of a day of it and gone to Blackburn first to see Fred Pickering, which was great (for younger fans, Blues centre forward in the late '60s). He's 77 now, IIRC, and in reasonable health - they had a photo taken with him, and while he doesn't look like the player I remember, he looks better than I do. Nice, that was..
