wattie exploited Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 (edited) our old record company Oi Records sponsored Margate the band the Business was on their home strip and we were on their away strip when Margate played Fulham first round of the English cup we got invited down for the game and it was a mental weekend . before kick off Fulham owner Mohamed AL-Fayed had hired a elephant to walk around the track which was pretty bizarre . Fulham had just signed this Canadian player for a million pound. A week I think before this game so he was worth more than the whole Margate team any way Margate scored first and every body was going totally mental ,then late on Fulham scored so I was thinking if it goes to a replay BBC1 is going to show the replay and we would be getting advertised all over the world because we were the sponsor on their away shirts ,but they scored really late on and one 1-2 so that spoiled that but Margate really gave them a fright . so after the game it was free drinks for my mates and myself and the record company guys and a great weekend and I got a shirt with the exploited on it Edited March 8, 2021 by wattie exploited Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wattie exploited Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 Keven Keegan was the manager and the assistant was Ray Wilkins and they had just signed there new 1.1million player who came of the bench to score the winner Paul Peschisolido arrived at Fulham in a blaze of publicity, shattering records left, right and centre. He was an instant hit with the fans and stayed that way, even when newer and even more expensive strikers started arriving on a seemingly monthly basis. That was back in 1998. The Mohamed Al Fayed revolution was gathering momentum, the dream team of Kevin Keegan and Ray Wilkins had arrived, and the Premier League was firmly in everyone’s sights. As if to demonstrate their undoubted ambition, Fulham, only recently promoted to the third tier of English football, brought in Peschisolido, a proven goalscorer, for the unheard of sum of £1.1m. That not only smashed Fulham’s transfer record, it demolished the division’s previous best as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Business were a really great band.

VikingHeart Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Cool Stories Wattie👏 Awesome movie clip and pictures Locky and JF👍 I enjoyed the fact that the big team left in a hurry after the game. I had to look up the Down To Margate CD as I thought it was a cool concept, the world's first 'non league' football album😁 Recognized most of the bands (mosly Hearts/Millwall/West Ham affiliations if I'm not wrong). Does anyone know what team Judge Dread/ Bad Manners followed? Couldn't find any info on "The Backseat Warriors" but I suspect they were a studio only/ session band Perhaps someone could shed a light on this mystery act?
