Lolled at the teletext hold gaff!

Reminds me of my Norwich early years too. Used to be divided between teletext updates in the pub after playing or Roy on the radio if we didn't have a game (and the odd live game when I had the money). Heady days indeed. My mate in Belfast still lives that tense Teletext rush to this day...
