When you've been one of just 3000 in a decrepit valley, had to watch us play home games at sellout and upton park, then one look around the ground on boxing day will explain my username...
2004/5 season against Brum at the Valley, terrrible morning, just made it in time for kick off, queuing at the turnstiles..."Wheresmeticket?" Much pocket searching but no joy. went and got drunk on my own instead. Won 3-1. D'oh!

Many of you will remember the old peanut seller on the east terrace who used to cry " peanuts - tanner a bag" or "six a bag of nuts". The old six pence piece was known as a tanner.
I got my name after a robin that I heard chirping in my garden. It wasn't sobbing but it singing this old sweet song. He woke me up so I decided that I'd better out of bed. It was at this point I was acutely aware that the sun was red, which I thought was strange because the weather hadn't been great and you don't often see that in South London, but I let it slide because I thought that that day I was going to live & laugh, which was a result because that positive outlook meant me and my missus made sweet love that morning.
Came up to take a 2 yr contract in Barrow before I retired, then intended to return South, but have stayed up here for 9 years by Morecambe Bay. Lad because I'm old.
