Aldershit

[Royal With Cheese]

38 years and counting. Since Aldershot last beat Reading

Not true. It was the day John Major became leader of the Conservative party. November 27th 1990. We lost 3-1 and Martin Hicks scored an OG. People complain about shit football nowadays should remember games like that.

Went by this tbf http://www.soccerbase.com/head2.sd?team ... am1id=2125

Too young to remember that season!!

Was an associate members cup match. Not covered by that site.

Frankly, you were lucky to be young enough not to remember that season.

And never forget that the army presence in Aldershot is much smaller than it previously was - in the 40s 7 50s during the days of national service there was a massive number of squaddies there who were a great boost to their attendances.

Not any more.

Quite simply they are one of very very few clubs whose local community couldn't be arsed to keep them going and allowed them to fold.

For a sample of Aldershot's numbers of 'support' the Day of celebrations video on youtube couldn't be more apt.

Brian Potter leading the way cracks me up every time.

It's the best video ever posted on youtube for all the wrong reasons.

In Part 2, after about 30 seconds it goes deathly silent as Beetlejuice makes a rare appearance!

Then some greasy Mark Lamaar lookalike on the drums turns up.

Literally there are tens of people there having a gr8 day it seems.

[The whole year inn]

Looks like a congregation of people too ugly to make Michael Jacksons thriller video

Just how absurd are those massive flags?

[Alan Partridge]

if there's no one there, occupy the space with flags seems to be the way.

To be fair, like the great escape it's a British classic

Its all about the bloke at 00:46 in part 2

Although, ironically, it only made the sparse numbers even more apparent.

You'd think they were marching to the Palio or something.

I didn't think Potter in the Part One could be topped for LOLZ. How wrong I was.

What's the significance of Brian Potter? I assume, he's the guy in the wheelchair leading the parade ...
