Who was it saying they play golf with Dave Curry

About £15 equivalent factoring in for inflation.
Football ticket prices from 1982 to today haven't followed any normal rules of inflation. If everything had gone up the same as ticket prices, our inflation rate would make Venezuela look like a stable economy!

Average ticket price in 1982 was about £2.50 apparently and my shoot magazine was whinging like mad about that!
 
rated Dave Currie, always likely to make something happen, and yes I remember the open goal miss..... Cloughie thought a bit about him to sign him.... even tho it was short lived.
 
It was me who said I know Dave and have played with him but not regularly. As boropie says he is still working, as he was not of the generation of millionaire footballers nowadays. I’ve looked at the sheets this week but doesn’t look like he is playing this week. If he doesn’t get in touch get back to me and I will try to get in touch with him via his regular four ball mates.
 
Currie though always remembered for that Carlisle miss also scored some crackers....Newcastle and Leeds at home come to mind....absolutely idolised at Darlo and a bit of a Barnsley legend too. Unlucky to play for us at a very difficult time....certainly not the worst striker we had in the early 80s....could name at least five worse off the top of my head (Woof, Crawford, McDonald, Hankin, Sugrue.....!)

I liked Dave Currie, don't forget he came from non league Stockton & upstaged players at the time who had played top flight football, including recently Fletcher & Assombalonga
 
I remember having my heart broken that day. I had convinced myself we were only 3 points behind 4th bottom with one game left, so obviously we were going to win our last game by enough to stay up. It took my dad ages of quiet explanation that because the games left involved the teams above the Boro playing each other that one of them was guaranteed to be at least 4pts above the Boro's current total.

I don't think my relationship with my father ever recovered from this (joking 🤣)
