West Ham v Manchester United - 29th.March 1969 score was 0-0 and it was the day the new west stand and chicken run opened and we were just off the halfway line -upper tier - we went on a coach from Berkshire from my Dad's work - it took ages to get there - I remember the British Legion band ,the old bloke who got the crowd cheering by waving to the North Bank when the teams were coming out and the roast chestnut seller outside the church.Manchester United played in all white - apart from the score ,it was a great first game - all the Man. U first team were out (excluding Charlton) and Moore, Hurst and Peters played -great memories

2-2 Norwich home 1995
The wrong Norwich player got sent off for something (their number 14 did something and 16 got sent off I think), the ball went up on the roof of the west stand then came back down about a minute later after play restarted and it genuinely confused the players.
Proper old football, hard to describe but felt nothing like today.

Think it was Stoke at home either 1977 or78 can't really remember, but my dad took me to the infamous millwall game which I think was 78 and I can really remember that match for very different reasons!

My Dad took me to a 0-0 draw at the Bridge 1968/9 iirc , best memory a decent mob of WHU skins walking around the ground seemingly unchallenged.

Rogers was a Swindon ledge.
I can still picture him now - Beatles hair and Hitler moustache. Good little player. He went on to score twice when Swindon beat the Arse in the first LC final at Wembley.
