It's not that bad I guess, I only ever went there for either work or football. Preston is a depressing sight walking out of Deepdale after demoralising 1-0 defeat.

Why did they decide to let their fans sit on Tom Finney's face. Seems disrespectful if you ask me.

Also big up to the other peeps who lived in Sale..........
looks like we may have a Washway Road posse in the future here.

Yes, in '78-80. Vogelweh/Kaaiserslautern was (is?) the largest community of Americans outside the US they told us- over 100,000 at that time.
