Topics: 100My first ever game: Carlisle at home, we were 2-0 up with 10 minutes left and lost 3-2. Why did I not take that as a warning?

… yesterday emulated our feat against Leyton Orient all those years ago! 2-0 down at Borussia Dortmund in the 89th minute, won 3-2!
Must be an Orient thing, as we were 4-1 down with 35 minutes to play and ended up winning 5-4.
My mate got ejected at 4-1 down, oh how we took the pish when he got back on the coach. Where the heck did nigh on 38 years go?!4 users thanked author for this post.

I remember it well, and the disappointment away at West Brom where we were desperately unlucky to lose 1 – 0.

Our coach broke down on way to West Brom- arrived 10 mins before kick- off , Police wouldn’t let us off at ground ,had to go to coach park 15 mins away!! Missed first 20 mins of match. That’s the way the police treated fans during that time .

I remember that game Bobby, I was driving home thinking we had lost 2-0, after leaving early.
I had a worse one than that though, after driving with my lads to watch the Notts Forest FA Cup match one Saturday after phoning their ticket office to order our tickets, arrived to find that they had not saved them. So with Scunny at Lincoln City that same afternoon, we called at Lincoln on our way back to Barton, and entering the ground about six minutes after kick off, the game was 2-0 after two early goals, I think to Lincoln. The score was still 2-0 with five minutes to go, so we went back to the car to avoid the traffic, there were two late goals and the score ended 2-2, so after driving all the way to Notingham, then to Lincoln and the Lincoln game, we had a full day but never saw any of the bloody goals, then back to Barton ha ha! Funny thing is that I nearly always still lerave when just a few minutes remaining in games.

Those were the days RoamingBull, thats when Scunny used to play attacking football, five forwards whoever we were playing, also a great night when Scunny won 4-0 at Leeds, I think that Barrie Tomas scored all four goals, and I slipped full lenth climbing a steep muddy bank inside Elland Road.
At your age you should realise that leaving early is not a good idea.
I never leave until the final whistle has been blown. Even when we are getting hammered – and there have been a good few times, both home and away – I just can’t bring myself to leave.
Now have 3 grown up children who also stay to the bitter end!!

Leeds, Draw on Saturday,replay Tuesday then Thursday if my memory serves me well. No crying about too many games and pay on the gate too ,over full OSG etc.
I didn’t get to West Brom,too young too poor, but for mates who did their overriding memory was jack booted coppers acting like arseholes.2 users thanked author for this post.
