Bias still exists ..... slightly different direction but still there all the same..
Me too - albeit at a time when I was wearing shorts most of the time too.
Wrote to the club in 78/79ish saying I support you, love Derek etc etc. A week later a package arrived. Inside was a sheet of hand signed autographs - Robson, Regis, Wile, Statham etc. And a No3 shirt (old broad yellow/green) signed by Derek. I still have them. No money changed hands. Those were the days.
