Classic Encounters

I thought it would be nice to try and put some details of some of the Pilgrims' memorable games on the site. I will have a go at digging out match reports to put on the site and ask fans and players to send in their memories of the games. My first attempt at listing some classic games is in the table below. Just click on the team name, if it is underlined, to get the match report for that game. If you would like to add any games to the list, or you have any memories you would like to share with the world about any of the games, then just drop me an E-Mail (ken@kafox.freeserve.co.uk) and I will consider adding your inputs to the list.
