Tonight, a gang of us are off to see the hotly anticipated (not only by me I'm sure) Awaydays, the film of the brilliant Kevin Sampson book about late 70s/early 80s era Tranmere fans.
I really should have made more effort on the clobber front. I'm convinced that gangs of nostalgic 40-somethings will turn up at the Printworks wearing retro adidas cagoules, Lacoste polos and Pringle jumpers.
There are two problems for me on that score.
1. My waistline has spread considerably since those days so anything I owned no longer fits me.
2. At the time I couldn't afford a real adidas New Yorker so had to make do with a Walker Immo instead, la.
Anyway, I've got my trainers sorted at least. I'll be in adidas Superstars. The Marple Leaf is wearing Stockholms. Neil Tague is going for Court Star.
On the subject of Taguey, and related to this post, he has just sent me a great article on Half Man Half Biscuit, Tranmere's most famous fans. What did God give us, Neil?
