Lol - you missed a trick there, we were top an hour before Chelsea's game finished!
I remember one of the last games of the season was Hartlepool at home and we got beat 2-1
That years squad had Paul Stewart, Dave Bamber, Iain hesford, David Bardsley, Colin Greenall, John Deary, Peter Noble.
The Oystons weren't the owners in 1982/83. Ken Chadwick was the Chairman. I guess that makes your post even less relevant?Winner of the most irrelevant post of the year so far.
There is simply no connection whatsoever to the dark days of the stains.
ButlerI notice we were deducted 2 points for fielding an illegible player (our very own asterisk season) does anyone have an idea who it was ?
Two of them players went on to play for England!
Team from that...
Hesford
Bardsley
Hetze
Serella
Pashley
Deary
Noble
Butler
McNiven
Bamber
Stewart
And Hesford U21's I think.Two of them players went on to play for England!
Yes. We were unanimously reinstated.What was the crack then is that when we had to reapply to stay in the league?
The year I started as a Pool fan, when at the time I was regularly on the Stretford End with my mates.
4 or 5 years before the Owen took over , 1988 ?Winner of the most irrelevant post of the year so far.

But vitally we also had John Butler and a forgetful secretary.That years squad had Paul Stewart, Dave Bamber, Iain hesford, David Bardsley, Colin Greenall, John Deary, Peter Noble.
Would any of those get in this team?
Really! so who had it after Cartmel?4 or 5 years before the Owen took over , 1988 ?
Just looked it up. Seems weird there was no straight forward relegations etc. Lucky for us.Yes. We were unanimously reinstated.
I remember it very well

Bardsley

It was just a group of local business men. Ken Chadwick was chairman, Peter Lawson?, Ismail Gibrail? We were losing money hand over fist and there were serious plans to sell Bloomfield Rd and groundshare with PNE believe it or not!Really! so who had it after Cartmel?
Thanks and thought it was just my short term memory that had vanished never to be seen againIt was just a group of local business men. Ken Chadwick was chairman, Peter Lawson?, Ismail Gibrail?

Wizz,which crackpot has said that??Except there are plenty of people saying Sadler is no different to the Oystons.
I played in the same team as John, i was actually sub in that gameI work with John Butler who'd mentioned that non registration to me. Obviously totally out of his hands but he wasn't impressed. Also added how much dosh Alan Ball wasted giving it the big I am.
And rightly soYes. We were unanimously reinstated.
Yes33, you were part of the Blackpool squad at the time we were re-elected?
Wizz,which crackpot has said that??
This one started a poll on it.5 years ago the Oyst*ns left, we were sitting 8th in league one. 5 years on were 8th in league one.
Thats Simon Sadlers 'Progress'
Your fault
Oh yes there is….and I was around then as I am now….justWinner of the most irrelevant post of the year so far.

Correct i take full responsibility lolYour fault
It was Chadwick. Ismail Gibrail was a minority shareholder who kept saying he was going to swing in and transform the place; smoke and mirrors stuffIt was just a group of local business men.

Paul Stewart played for England and in FA cup finals, I think he’d fancy his chancesThat years squad had Paul Stewart, Dave Bamber, Iain hesford, David Bardsley, Colin Greenall, John Deary, Peter Noble.
Would any of those get in this team?
Does that make you Neil Bramhall then?I played in the same team as John, i was actually sub in that game
Possibly related, although the season before. I was owed, for the early 80's, a reasonable amount and after a delay the cheque arrived. A few weeks/months later a duplicate cheque arrived, being too honest I never cashed it and it is still in the loft somewhere.Didn't a woman who worked in the office steal stuff. When the police searched her house the letter with Butlers registration in it found under her bed ?
Yep, he'd deffo make the development squad under NC and Dobbie would have to whip him into shapePaul Stewart played for England and in FA cup finals, I think he’d fancy his chances
It does SirDoes that make you Neil Bramhall then?
Was Ian your brother? Played with him for the town team as a kid.It does Sir
Stole the stamps off the lettersDidn't a woman who worked in the office steal stuff. When the police searched her house the letter with Butlers registration in it found under her bed ?
No he isn't, i actually lived next door to Ian around 30 years ago in Bispham. and weirdly we both had the same surnameWas Ian your brother? Played with him for the town team as a kid.
