Post by magpie jeff »

After years of wondering what the hell i did with it i finally found my grand final ticket of 1990.

Dan is here and we are going through the mountains of stuff i have kept since that famous day and going through some of the many scrap books dan found it,
IT is in mint condition and glued to a page in scrap book dated 29th sept 1990....because of the drawn prelim the grand final was to be played 6th october 1990.

I will carefully cut it out and have it framed and keep it forever.

DONT BRING A KNIFE TO A GUNFIGHT...sean connery...the untouchables !!...DARREN MILLANE SIMPLY THE BEST...BETTER THAN ALL THE REST #42..GO OUR GLORIOUS BLACK AND WHITE MAGPIES FOR EVER UNTIL DEATH!!

Congratulations Joffa!

At least you have one to find. Biggest disappoinment of my life not to have been there. Had to make do with drinking the night away at Vic Park that night and all day the next day. As great as that weekend was for me, still not quite the same.........

Colours are an illusion. There is only black and white.

Yes I have witnessed the finding of the Grand Final ticket at Joffa's house and in actual fact I'm the 1 who found the ticket!

We were going through a scrap book of the 1990 Grand Final news articles and there it was right at the back of the book! When I found it and told Joffa you should have seen his eyes light up!

Unfortunately I dont remember anything from the 1990 Grand Final, but I have an excuse for that! I was only about 6 or 7 at the time so it was good to see what it was all about!

Go Pies!

Go The Richo!

UNLEASH THE TURBO!

I have mine in a box in the wardrobe with the record and all the papers from the next week. I haven't look at any of it since 1990. I think I might just take a look tonight.
