    * The [early] Unofficial “Official” 153rd Tees-Wear “Derby” Boro v Sunlun Match-Day Thread *

    ICI

    I did my year out in the Wilton Hilton at about 1993. Loved it and even got to fly on the little private plane from Manchester to Teesside . Up and down in no time ! My dissertation was a classic ! “The advantages and disadvantages of the ICI Surfactants database system” 😀

    Parking Charges to be introduced at Stewart Park 😡

    You know it might be the years of Tory rule but it has never been good .
