Since 1971 Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 On 07/03/2021 at 17:02, Sambo89 said: My brother took me to my first game, intertoto cup game at milllmoor when Hillsborough was getting ready for euro96 so I'd have been about 5 I think, I got bored about the hour mark but soldiered through to the end. My dad was never into football so used to go whenever my brothers or uncle had a spare seat in the car, and i think the fact I didn't get dragged there every week as a kid made me enjoy going. My boy is just 6 and I'm thinking of taking him to his first match when we're allowed back in, my only obstacle is his mothers side of the family who are trying to brainwash him into supporting L**ds. Any advice on this final thing would be appreciated. Inflicting L***s on a six year old child? Yep you've defo got solid grounds for divorce there 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

109Waddle Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 Took mine to his first game at 6 (7 that year). Vs Preston at home and THAT Nuhiu goal. He enjoyed it, less keen though on being launched in the air when that 4th went in and we still talk about it now. Good memories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flo Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Don't take him in the current state of the club. he will probably end up hating you and perhaps becoming a serial killer. And maybe harming yourself. For the sake of all sane humanity wait 10 years until we have some quality. It is imperative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nevthelodgemoorowl Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 My oldest sons first game was Achesons v Walkley Cottage Feb 12th 1976 he was just 9 Months and 6 days old. Wednesday were at Portsmouth and we both managed 3-0 victories. All the boys started seriously going at the age of 6+ . We were living in London from 89 and over a couple of seasons the three of them were offered the near impossible task of popping a ball through a board with a one inch clearance to claim a £25 Pizza voucher ...Number 2 son Mike hit 3 out of 4 for £75's worth of vouchers. Quite a good deal all in all £13 day return London on rail card, £1 for each of the kids. 4 Giant Yorkshires and stew from the Minerva a £5. Enough Pizzas to feed an Army !
