Blimey! my memories of the list from the late nineties was a mostly
civilised ;) debate about the merits or otherwise of Sgt Wilko but an
absolutely virulent continuous and unanimous anti-student tirade the rest
of the time. I didn't think that any student lasted more than 2 days on the
list then.
I joined soon after the League Cup final I think so 1996. First and only list
meet (apart from a couple of Worldnet's and some NYC list meets) was in the
Adelphi before a game against Wimbledon in 1997. Nick Armit got to take the
half time penno's if I recall.
