63/64 massive crowd at Old show ground on a very cold winters afternoon,2-2 draw,think Godfrey got both for us.All to no avail though i think we were both relegated from Div 2 that year.Did you have a guy called De Gruchy playing full back or was that in an earlier life?
Last home game of the season around 2002ish. Beat Burnley 3-1 and Gazza played for them I think. My earliest memory was a goal from Boulding, think it was bobbling around and he just managed to slide it between the keepers legs and the crowd going mental, unless I was imagining in. Hooked ever since, shame it's been downhill ever since except Slade's second season.
If anyone can find any highlights of that game please please please send me the link.
Sorry if this has been a thread in the recent past but am just interested to know if you can remember your first ever town match? Opponents, score, scorers etc. Mine was Torquay at bp in the late eighties. Town won 1-0 and I think john cockerill got the goal, might be wrong tho
wigan in the 70s,i think it was the old 4th division back then,i can remember singing my heart out in the old pontoon [ standing ] the atmosphere was brilliant back then,i can remember nigel batch in goal and tony ford playing
Last game of the season when we went down under bobby roberts. 1988(?), 1-1 v aldershot and the late Marc north missed a pen late on. Can't remember who the scorers were tho.
