Since when is 1987 considered the modern game?
The worst idea is having a party before a crucial game like last Saturday, and heap over-bearing pressure on the side. Yes there would have been a lot of pressure any way, but to celebrate early was was ridiculous and possibly ruined a great season.

1987 seems a date when everything started to change for the worse with the play offs. then we had the premier league and sky involvement. Bradford city disaster and Hillsborough with all the problems associated with it e.g. ban on standing. new flat pack grounds or should I say stadiums. constant law changes with the off side law being the most ludicrous. the Stevenage game was not about a party it was the opening of the fans zone that the supporters club wanted although some did think it could have turned into a premature party. no it would be nice to go to an old end of season game with nothing on it just to enjoy with no pressure. you could give a few young lads a game with nothing to loose as well.
