That was my second game.1970 home to Utd 2-2, top game, legends from both sides on pitch, plenty of mud very little grass, 50k + crowd, great atmosphere.
I would love to be able to go back in time and see the old WHL, before any of the West Stand redevelopment. I haven't seen many decent photos of how it was back then, nor in the Shelf. Maybe I should have shelled out on an Opus...
I blew me away - I had never experienced anything like it - even Chinese new year in Singapore seemed like a Church quiet reflection meeting. I have no idea what happened to the guy who took me and told my parents he'd look after me, and have no recollection of buying a ticket to get in, I just remember getting ushered forwards and ending up on the concrete base of either a stanchion or a floodlight pylon.A game like that is either going to make you or break you!
