Indeed. In fact, one of the few bars on Long Island to show English football 20 years ago was the Guinea in New Hyde Park, also called the olde one pound one.A guinea( 21 shillings...me thinks?)

You dont have to tell me lad I know.12 pence = 1 shilling
20 shillings = 1 pound
Therefore 240 pennies = 1 pound
So we had to do sums like.
What change would you get from £1 if you bought 2 pints of milk 7d each a loaf of bread for 1s 3d 3 bananas at 4d each a mars bar for 5d some persil for 2s 5d and a pair of stocking for 9d. d = pence obviously.
No calculators we didn't have them

Wow, I never rated him that highly. After the promotion I think it was more like 1 in 5 he had a stinker, maybe in 10. Not 1 in 100! In my opinion anyway. He was a good player for us though.I wish him well - 90% of the time he was brilliant for us, 5% of the remaining 10% time he was just very good, and 4 of the next 5% he held the defence together on his own.
every 100 games he had a stinker - probably the best value for performance money we spent on buying him over the past 12 seasons.
Long gone, I think. I live on the South shore and more places started to carry it.Still there? I've not heard of it.
When people realise that 'the modern footballer' doesn't really give a toss about that kind of thing in fact will probably be quite amused
Get ready for the rainLong gone, I think. I live on the South shore and more places started to carry it.
I think it has already come out, they just don't like what the club said about it so tried to deflect it to any new potential clubs interested with a "The truth will out"What happened to these truths “that will out” according to his missus?
