Arrived to the US today. No tears to the envelope so I'm going to use it to hold tax forms. Smells like a magazine.

Originally posted by Baptiste View PostWell I had foolishly assumed that the other two years were actually in the top flight on the basis the football league was more of a closed shop with re-election and all that back then. To be voted out and back in again twice in quick succession sounds an interesting story.

I think that Grimsby Town are the only top flight Lincolnshire team.

Did it not? Then what were the Central League and the Midlands League part of? Lincoln won them both, in 1909 and 1912 respectively, to go straight back up to Division Two following relegation. So, impressive enough.

New WSC reached Germany two days ago. Private Eye also resumed and very fast delivery again - new issue arrived today.

It has arrived in Holland replete with customs declaration and a statement that the envelope does not contain any dangerous articles!

Originally posted by Baptiste View PostI was impressed with reading that Lincoln spent 20 out of 22 years in division 2 until 1920, until it dawned on me that the third tier didn't exist during those years.

Despite my representations WSC can't go back to shrinkwrapping the mag, so I'm stuck with waiting two days for the dampness to disappear. Switching to paper envelopes is an annoying and puzzling decision by the publisher. It makes no odds if your mail gets posted into your house whether it's in paper or plastic, but if you have an external mailbox it makes a considerable difference.

It's here, only just over a week late this time. I haven't had chance to read the last one yet. It's in perfect condition, though.

There is a letter in which the writer claims he was in the away end at Wycombe for their first game in the League, and saw Carlisle's Chris Curran score Wycombe's first goal in the League (with an own goal obviously).
He must have had good eyesight because the match was played at Carlisle.

Arrived in the Dublin shops this week. Very quick when you consider other Brexit problems.

Surprised mine hasn't arrived yet as I usually get it the day these threads start.

Mine arrived on Tuesday, so at my usual rate, I'll finish it just before February.

Yup. PT reckons that the move and the time it took up was behind his strange absence from one of the letters pages a few months ago.

I definitely got that sweet waft of Panini on opening this issue, which arrived today along with last week's Private Eye. It soon dispersed though.
What is the picture next to the big WSC logo on the envelope supposed to be? I'm concerned that the postman will think we subscribe to a journal of Ear, Nose and Throat medicine and start asking for sinus management tips.
The story about the Corinthian collector's girlfriend googling his name made me laugh.

Originally posted by Greenlander View PostIs that Worcestershire's Phil Neale sitting in the middle in that Lincoln team picture. If it is, he had some career for them as I'm sure he played against us in 1984 and maybe the following season too. We didn't go to Argyle every week when I was young, but my cricket mad dad always took me to the games against them.
Also part of one of my favourite Argyle oddities, where Terry Austin and him scored all the goals in a 2-2 draw, one for their team and one for the other.
