What's particularly odd is that they've both spent plenty of that time a division apart, but have never converged at the right time. Ah well, it's good for domestic harmony, I guess...

As an occasional (partly willing) visitor to the County Ground with the missus, one of my conditions is that we visit the Gluepot before and after the match. Mind you, with the price of South Stand tickets nowadays, I usually just stick with the fine pints of Hopback and let her endure... er, enjoy the football ;-) The Gluepot!
