25 Years of AVFTT - Favourite Memories

I was definitely reading, if not posting on this forum from around 2001, I remember a prominent poster called MurphysHeadGear. Rocky64 used to try and come up with chants which were hilariously bad, then was employed by the club, sad to hear he died.

OldLeeds hooliganism threads, CarpetMartins brilliant comedic stylings, kidder’s temper, message board rivalries where posters here would flood rival teams boards, good times.

Here’s to another 25 years, though by then I imagine we will either be sat in an apocalyptic wasteland or have chips implanted in our brains receiving beamed down reports about the east stand progress.
FRon memory (which isn't great) MHG and Tangerine girl were one and the same. She went into journalism and married Steve Canavan. Wonder what they're doing these days.
 
No one has mentioned how MASSIVE Sheffield Wednesday are!!!!

I used to love Carpet Martin and the chino irregulars, his trip to the Shell garage to buy beer and the scuffles in Stringers in Lytham

Any else remember The Ghost of Dave Rushbury aka TODGER around the time Chesterfield were often referred to as Cheaterfield?
 
Anyone remember the thread started by the overweight 30 something guy who’s wife had bought him a full kit- down to the socks and he was trying to find a way to tell her he couldn’t go to Wembley as a “full kit w@nker”

Hilarious
 
The annoying Tranmere fan around 2006 .
He was laughing his socks off following Belekons prediction of “Premiership in 5 years”
Even more so following our poor start and a couple potential signings snatched from us and join Tranmere.
He never came back to apologise when it only took 3 years.

Another was Craftybluefox? When Leicester were comfortably were in Play Offs and Pool in mid-table.
It certainly bit him on the bum as they lost to Cardiff.

Wasn't there a Badiff fan similar, a little patronising and popped up on the board occasionally after that glorious day?

Wasn’t there a Toryfox as well who was a bit of a bellend? Or was it ToryBlueFox? Maybe we are thinking of the same poster.

Can’t remember, it’s been a while!

Nice to see your BSA alarm still works (winky smiley face)
how odd. You can remember old threads but not your old username. Think it's a bit snidey that people have to keep registering different usernames.

What a great thread, actually forgot Wallace apologised which was pretty magnanimous. I actually forgot about my old MelbourneMatt alter egos posts 😂

The Leicester fan was convinced that they'd got a far better player than DJ Campbell in Martyn Waghorn.

DJ went on to be top English scorer in the Premier League at Christmas😉😂
 
I remember when the ITK renowned Stanley Matthews posted - it was taken as undisputed gospel! Did we ever find out who that was?
He was a local journo from memory, can't remember his real name but we met in real life. Wonder if he still posts.
 
I think we did the best ever “Sheffield Wednesday are so massive they…” which went on for absolutely ages and attracted outsiders from all over the place to marvel at the same.

The Dark Lord getting taken to absolutely pieces after posting some trip from onboard a train was memorable.

And the lunchtime sandwiches thread when things were really quiet and desperate on here
The folly of the East stand....... outstanding 👍
Plus Carpet Martin's capers and Mozalini's love life.
And of course the legendary court threads - 31.27 million 🧡

The tranmere idiot was STANLEY_LAD or BLADE. Used to say LAD after everything. They don't make whoppers like that anymore
 
We had the annoying PNEstu on here from around 2005 until 2010.
With his superior team and boasting of their progress.
“ We consider you lot as our little brother” We don’t take you serious.
“ We have played in a division you haven’t featured in nearly 30 years”

Of course he disappeared following ou. promotion to the Premier League.
 
Didn't he work for the citizen paper?
you might be right. I had him working in a different part of Lancashire, this side of the M6 and in a different profession. Can't remember how I knew/know but I remember the details. I could still probably find him now without too much trouble.

Ah yes, PNEstu-pid ......🤡

I do miss PNE Thor_skin, the sheep worrying lothario of Beacon Fell.
 
don't know why but i remember the Sam apology with fondness.

It was the first real black eye back to the scum and i remember the disbelief of fans asking if it was true.

The £31.27m thread was obviously fantastic too, the delirium outside court was something to behold.
The delerium in my office was too, after I composed myself as the tears had ended!

Not sure my F5 key had ever been as used.

The banter between Basilrobbie Reborn and Andrade (and whatever he became) about his old mother. Priceless humour.
 
Been some great threads 😆
Personally my fave threads were the PKE meltdown on promotion to the Prem and how massive Wednesday are.
Did anyone ever fight at the Windmill?
