dad was in the st johns, so we got a seat every week, much better than standing on that terrace as I got older

I have been watching Fartown/Barracudas/Giants for 50 years since 1965. Back in the 60/70s we could get great pork pies from a local butcher (the gravy running down your chin type ) from the refreshment hut at the end of the long terrace. Not the plastic pies we get now. Without getting ripped off as well. The prices charged today are extortionate in comparison even taking inflation into consideration.
As stated earlier about blobs running about on the pitch, it appears most people thought it was permanantly muddy, but that was not the case.
Could go on but have to go out.

I was with you Martin/Daz, it's not a badge of honour to have supported our club, we just got on with it. As well as doing the jobs at the stadium etc etc


Incidentals that's not the lowest gate at the stadium IIRC, I sold souvenirs under the west stand when Keighley played Trafford borough at the grand old place. Can't have been that figure there.........

Thought they played 2 or 3 as 'home games' back end of 1991/2 season ? i'm sure i remember going to one against Nottingham City !! will dig my Rothmans out
