Me too for all of these, plus:
...Dave Watson and Monty kept us in the cup against Notts County away in January 1973
That is the only one I missed.

I was at Roker for Stokoe's first game and the game against Blackpool not long before before, where there were rumours about him coming, and the crowd went up from about 7,500 to 10,500. We've seen some sh1te times, but all swamped by the good ones recounted here. The Man City 2-2 was a good one too.
 
when we got beat 7-1 of everton and 5-1 of them lot.





Keanos first game down derby.


watched jason mac get sent off and walk down the tunnel at OT in the SF of the FAcup

every other week at John Tennick's ticket office that doubled as as fishing tackle shop

at roker when you could buy scran at the back of the fullwel served by the hardest person in the ground from hendon who alledgedly was female


almost choking to death at stoke away



..................just before i die

? how
 
Went to a game against Man United, think it was the League Cup. I'm sure I remember Nunez skinning a few of their players then getting wiped out and doing a somersault. I was only young like, might have imagined it

Might have even been a reserve game

Also, haven't read the thread but more than likely will have been mentioned by someone. The first game at the SOL against Ajax. It was only my second ever game (I'd went to the Forest game at RP in the final season there). I remember going to get tickets, I'm sure it was at the old RP ticket office, and I remember driving past the SOL getting built.

To walk into the stadium and come out of the access for the first time was mind blowing, I was only 6 but I will always remember it.
 
you had to be there

ok i'll explain, it was first match of the season, red hot day and at the final whistle

every one piled off the back of the terracing down the soil embankment to get out

quicker the ensuing dust cloud and crush to get out to chase those mouthy Stoke fans
 
I was in the Fulwell end with 55,000 others for the Man city replay...
that was well cosy that game, if you jumped in the air - 9 people went with you!!
