I think Synners is referring to the black times as nostalgia..times in the past...long forgotten.

I'll give it a try Sailorman

"I remember when I used to go to the see the Blues, didn't expect a win and was only interested to see if any of the new guys showed anything"

How's that ?

Alternatively...
I remember when I was young, the world had just begun and I was happy

Ha ha!! Me too mate....

After I posted I started getting a bit worried it was going to turn into a Mexican v Seppo thing....not the time or the place! We are all Blue....that's all that matters.

I remember when a can of coke was 20c and you could buy it just to roll it down the hill and watch it deform from expansion.

And 20c would also get you a bag full of mixed lollies...mmmm them were the days.

And I remember Carlton always being in everything remotely related to football......

when we were expected to win a game, we would win it by at least 7 goals. 8)
(That was just about every week!)

I remember when Andrew Demetrispew was a teacher and he was hauled up before the School Board because one of his lessons was instructing his students how to bet at the TAB.

I remember when Andrew Demetrispew was a Student Liaison Officer at RMIT and when asked what he did he said he "liaised".

I remember when kicking to the Heatley stand i.e. to my left in the last quarter meant about 10 goals in a quarter and the roof getting blown off that stand...
