cognacbarnowl Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 Phew ; I just came out of the , "Have we sold our ground" fred and decided life needed lightening up a bit...…. Sooooo ………. Over our 152 year history how many records, dubious or otherwise, have we managed to achieve in that time ? To kick it off I will offer in evidence our very own Kevin Pressman, for holding the record for the fastest football league sending off after just 13 seconds. I could chuck in a load more, but I'll leave that up to you lot cos I've got blisters on the ends of my two forefingers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
