Sefton owl Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Given that the natural order has been restored since our promotion in 2012 and their shambolic record at Wembley, the only chance we really have of facing them in the near future is cup competitions. I would like playing them in the cup, adds an extra edge. Just out if interest what's the longest both teams have gone without facing each other?

Pompeyowl Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 1993 until 2001 was quite a while. Would be interesting to know if there was a longer period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

latemodelchild Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Don't care if we never play em again. Hate the games, too stressful. Keep em a league or 2 below us I say. This is the natural order. This is how it should be. In our shadow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pompeyowl Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 not when we played them in 1995 I was only considering competetive matches. The one you're referring to is a Steel City Cup game in '96, according to Wikipedia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S36 OWL Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 It's been too long as it is, want the derby matches back. Id happily see them go down to non league and go to the wall. Horrible little club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
