Northern played at football matches

Took my lad (Paul B on here) to Sheffield Wednesday vs Newcastle around 2000 and they played Judy Street's What at half time. We are Burnley fans, but it was an arranged football day out with the Scouts....they played a Sheffield Scouts team in the morning, and the match in the PM, then onto Harry Ramsdens.

I have never heard a Northern tune on Turf Moor, even though Burnley has been a NS hotbed from 70/71 onwards.

Not sure if this has been done before, but as a starter, Nolan Porter - If I could only be sure - was played at Old Trafford last night........

Given that performance it's unlikely Willie Mitchell will be getting added to the OT playlist any time soon.  :(

What about football played at Northern Soul events? In the early 9t's and Ady's Cleethorpes Weekenders there would be a Sunday footie match in the afternoon. Johnny Beggs in goal. Micky Cruise playing a cracking game although he couldn't breathe after 90 minutes lol

I'm a Wigan Athletic lass and they always knock out the Northern Soul prematch and at half time. Shame they play shite football now....

I remember there was at least one 5-a-side game (maybe two) played outside the Spinning Jenny All-Dayer late 70's.

Can't remember who played but a think Colin Curtis had something to do with it.

It was the week that Jonathan had bought Frank Wilson, that was the big talk between the record collectors at the time.

There were a couple after kickabouts in the dunes in the morning after the mecca.

Never in the know enough to get picked lol.

Northern is regularly featured on the pre match playlists at Old Trafford, at Fergusons last match he chose a few tracks too which were played
