Preston, first game of the 90/91 season I think. Won 3-1 on that awful pitch and the away end was packed (I was in the seats at the side)

I have just looked it up it was March 1959,

Away to Scunthorpe we won 3-1 in front of 13,500,

I still remember male private Conner jumping on Rafferty's back after he scored.

Stoke away when we packed 4000 into the away end in 1991. Brilliant atmosphere and bizarre day. Seem to remember there being a fire or something similar in the seats behind the terraced part and of course seeing what seemed like half of the home fans steaming towards us......and a corner flag being thrown at us in the away end


Yep this was my first too. Needed a police escort to walk 10 yards out of the away end area just to get a bag of chips from a chip van!

Stoke was a very volatile place back then!

Think it was Scunts v Town 1970 Old Show ground.
Won I think👍


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

Remember it well, the guy who threw the corner flag was called Davr Clews, he was a team leader with me at a window factory. Its funny how he can be ready to have a fight with anyone in b&w and 18 hrs earlier were having a laugh and talking about the game in works canteen.
