ArmchairOwl Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 When I went to my first match, was against the piggies in the Zenith Data cup, 1989/90 I think. I was 12/13. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weirdly, we're still married. She should give you the money for the ticket at least... its a bit mental the contrasting fortunes both teams have had... I would say we where pretty level for a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles Monkey Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Remember my dad taking me on the kop in the late 60's. The crowd must have been poor that day as there were loads of space in front of me. I was only around 6 or 7 at the time so was probably too young to be enthralled. However, my second visit was around 1973. This time I was stood on the north west terrace. I was in awe of the big Kop with all those people on it. I think the crowd was only around 14,000 but it looked full to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Football Specials lined up with everyone pushing to get on trying to get on back seat upstairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
