Wolves away in the FA Cup 3rd round. John Farrington equaliser took us back to Filbert St for a memorable replay.
I ran my first bus trip out of Corby that day. 53 seater supplied by Murt Flanagan. Full bus ran at 50p a head.
And so started 30 years of away trips up and down the country. Our bus was usually off the police radar, which came in handy for trips to Peterborough and Nottingham for example. Always tried for first bus there. Astonished to find 20 odd coaches outside Boothferry Park when we turned up for that cup tie. Pre match tour of Doncaster to blame. Definitely first to arrive at Fellows Park for the next round.
Some very memorable trips in those 30 odd years. Harborough boys always enjoyed a trip on Flanigans as we headed for games in the West Midlands. Black Horse at Walcot, always a favourite watering hole on those days. I know Zoonie's bus trips are the stuff of legend, but some of our away trips in Flanagans "luxury" coaches from the Badlands ain't far behind.
