Guest tha_knows Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Sat on North stand around 96/97, we beat Everton 2-1, Don't remember who scored the first but I remember Hirsty scoring the second, and I'm sure big Duncun Ferguson got there's, also remember thinkin how both gk's had a rather large appearance, Pressman and Southall!

Guest Ozzieowlpelvicthrust Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 First match was a 5-0 home win in FA cup against Leyton Orient probably Jan 1985? Remember one of the Orient players launching the ball over the south stand roof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackie Sewell Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 How far do want to go back? Lost 4-3 to Portsmouth Nov 52 believe it or not. Jackie Sewell had been signed the previous season for the British record transfer fee ( we were Massive even then) and was a current England regular no 10. I went every week after that and became " Jackie Sewell "in our playtime games at school, we were about six and only me was going to games. Guess what happened next? A new kid arrived in our class and Jackie lodged with their family on Wordsworth Ave or Chaucer Rd so obviously he adopted the name and I became somebody else which quite upset me at the time. Now I'm Jackie again on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwissOwl8200 Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Well good OP. I can remember snippets of me first game but I don't know exactly what it was, maybe someone can help? I was about 5 yrs old, which makes it 1968 or 69, I sat in the North towards Lep end. I seem to remember we scored three and won the game and I think David Ford had a shot which knocked the referee over. I also seem to recall the other team wore red, could it have been Forest? (I know there's a few basic facts I could've researched before posting) wish I could ask me dad but he died after our promotion winning season in 1984. So can any old uns help me? I never saw any of the goals, I had to ask me dad why he kept jumping up and down, d'oh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bluesarge Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Beating Oxford Utd 6-1, I think it was 1985. Still got the match prog. somewhere with the scorers written on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mkowl Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 April 74 Wednsday won 1-0 against Bolton - Ken Knighton on about 83 minutes. Never realised until years later that if we lost we were relegated. I would say I was a lucky charm well if you discount Forest in 90 and Palace a couple of years ago. Sat in North, my older sister asked why were we sat in here not stood up. "Lots of swearing on the Kop" said my old man "What more than in here" was my sisters reply Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfmanjack Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 1956 or '57 Lincoln City in the second division. Think we beat them about 5 -2. I was barely school age and don't remember much other than what I thought was a huge number of people, and being passed down from the middle of the Kop, to the front. First game my dad, God rest his soul, took me to at Hillsborough, and I repaid him in 1996 by taking him to his last ever match when Turkey played Denmark in Euro '96.

glenowl Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Cant remember the first game i went to but im positive i went to a few before this anyway, we where losing to reading 2-1 at halftime and i remember us having a really long team talk at halftime, it felt like we came out about 5mins after them, anyway we came out and whatever was said worked as we ended up winning 3-2, so thats my first memory of wednesday was about 5 or 6 at the time i think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
