3-2 win at home v Bristol Rovers in 1978.

Think I can remember Barry Siddall and Shaun Elliott playing but not much else cos I was only 6 at the time.
Still got me hooked though , stood in paddock all game with gob wide open like a guppy fish !:-D

Sept 20th 1958 v's Ipswich Town.

Bollands, Urwin (debut) Ashurst (debut) Anderson, Hurley, McNab (debut), Bircham, Pearce, Kitchenbrand, O'Neill, Granger.
You see why I don't get excited about bringing too many kids at once. Three in this game, we lost 2-0 a man called Ted Phillips scored for them, two years before we were the Bank of England Team, then came Alan Brown.
 
1963 V Scunthorpe . Usual promotion team but Iam fairly certain Fogarty played ...need to check . Crossan scored . 36,000
Scunthorpe included Lawther a former Sunderland player and a famus player if I remember rightly called Brownsord .
An old lady ran onto the pitch with a brolly ateempting to hit the referee.
I did see a reserve game before this V Rotherham drew 0-0 .

That was mine too, Clock Stand Paddocks. I was bought a programme and read it cover to cover for months. I wanted to go back next game in case I was the ringed face in the crowd in the next programme.

Sometime in 96 I think. Possibly played against someone in yellow? Only thing I can remember is sitting down under the railings because my little legs couldn't hack all the standing.

SAFC 1 - 0 Arsenal. Cheap tix through primary school, with the guy behind me constantly screaming 'WANKER' behind me, a 6 year old lad at the time.

EDIT: Oh fuck, Copy and Paste never fails to let me down.
