I don't mind either Harvey, so long as we don't lose to the Blues. :-) I do agree with you, it isn't the same anymore. I can remember when you could mix with the other sides supporter and everybody would have a nice laugh and joke. It is a shame those nice days aren't here anymore.

I used to go to a club under the arches of Snow Hill Station, where I saw groups such as John Mayall (Just after Clapton left and Peter Green came in) & Brian Augur and Judy Driscoll (Wheels on fire).
Did anybody else go there?

Also saw Tom Jones with his band (who in those years were absolutely brillaint) live in 66 at a club down by Digbeth, but can't remember the name of the club.

When I left Birmingham in 72 to work in Scotland, I threw a do at the Opposite Lock for all my mates and work colleagues. About a hundred there. Is it still open ?
