Randomly as they come into my head.
First home game Aug 12th 1972 vs Coventry. 2-1 win, 2 goals for Martin Peters. First home game on my own Aug 25th 1976 vs Toon. Lost 0-2. First away game 1977 (Orient?)
Proudest moments 'One Danny Thomas' & invading the pitch & making the team come out to take a standing ovation after we had just been relegated. The players were a bit ashamed but as Pat Jennings later said 'you would have tought we had just one the league, not been relegated'.
Best moments - cup wins, especially 1984. Ossie & Ricky's debut at Forest when there were allegedly 18k Yids there (10k locked out) - they had to open up another away section!. Causing bemusement among the home fans when we lost 7-0 at Anfield as we started cheering the Liverpool goals rather than being all despondent like we were supposed to be.
All of the 1977-1978 season - the best away days ever. Our average away crowd (according to the Mirror at the time) was 10k. Southampton away when we got promoted. 9-0 at home vs Bristol Rovers. 52k home crowd vs Man U (very cosy) & 50k vs Bolton in Div 2. Millwall away boxing day 1977 - leaflets were handed around in the Park lane in the prior home game printed with the immortal words - Millwall Away, dont bottle it!
Getting off the coach at the White Hart pub after away games, going in & getting the players autographs. Will never see than again.
Taking the North Bank Highbury (regularly).
Inter Milan away when i was the only Yid in the whole block in the corner where Bale scored his H-T. The Italians gave the old nutter a pass.
Anderlecht away last year at O'Reillys. Quality.
Dinamo Zagreb Blue Boys at the Lane. Amazing support. Best i have seen at the Lane in recent years was the 5-1 cup win vs the Scum. Incredible volume from Tottenham.Inter home a close second.
Might add more.
