Spent a very late night in a bar in Frankfurt last night with a bunch of
Newcastle United fans (they were playing Frankfurt). When they found out that I was a North Ender, they had some very good words to say about us. They said it was good for football that a team like Preston were on top of the division and that they were hoping we would get promoted. One of the chaps was an older fan and remembered back forty plus years when he last visited Deepdale. There was defintely no 'big club', 'little club' syndrome with them. Anyway we got messed up, but a good time was had by all.
