Re: 1977

Was the last year I used my season ticket (3 games) as I'd moved both home & work-wise towards the north-western end of the Northern line and was throwing in 7 days a week work.
We had a "local management concession" that we could take 3 hours off on a Saturday afternoon to turn out for the works team - and nothing else - provided we managed to pick up the work lost during the month. Management even came along sometimes to "support" us.
My brother picked up the rest of the games when he could, but, as he's Man U, and was making his own way in life, the ticket lapsed the following year.

I was 15 and started going to gigs, my first 3 were Fleetwood Mac, The Stranglers, The Clash!
It was a cracking summer that year but nobody noticed because it was the year after the best summer ever

West Ham cam back from 2-0 to beat Manchester United 4-2 in our final game of the season to avoid relegation by the narrowest of margins
Tottenham Hotspur were relegated in last place
It was also the last ever season that every top flight club, included all the relegated clubs, won more games at home than they lost whilst all clubs including champions Liverpool lost more games away than they won....
FACT Of the century IMHO

I won a fancy dress competition at the Queen's Jubilee. I think it was out of pity on the presumption my parents were on drugs, given my outfit.
The emergence of Monster Munch was clearly the defining moment of that year though.
