Your first ever football match?

[Colchester Kev]

My Grandad and Uncle took me Boxing day 1979 Norwich vs Ipswich, 3-3 draw.  I seem to remember the Ipswich fans making the whole stand move.
I think Grandad hoped this would turn me Yellow and Green, and he knew it would annoy the hell out of my old chap.  Dad took me to Wembley about 5 months later and I was a Gooner forever.

Nak, change that effin sig ... makes me ill every time you post !

first home fixture i can remember going to was against leeds on the 18/01/1975 which ended in 2 0 defeat.

my earliest recollection of an away game was the same season at white hart lane 19/04/1975 when we also lost 2 0 with the match marred by crowd trouble where a famous photo of alfie conn (sp?) on the pitch surrounded by hundreds of fans.
the result relegated chelsea to a couple of seasons in the old 2nd division and i remember sitting in my high vantage point at the top of shelf crying my eyes out whilst the spurs fans sang "bye bye chelsea" to the tune by the bay city rollers "bye bye baby" whilst celebrating on the pitch.

since that day ive hated spurs with a passion!!!
