[QUOTE=Outertowner;2257050]30 years for me. I have to admire the new generation of fans for sticking with it, who have only known conference football. At least I had arsenal, Northampton and Birmingham in my first ten :drool5:years.[/QUOTE]

I think its easier if you`ve only known the Conference !!! some of us remember the 70s and long for those days again . :drool5:

[QUOTE=Colomiers Phoenix;2257065]watched my first home game in 1963 lost 2-1 to Port Vale. My first away game was in 1965 and even worse, we lost 6-1 to Chester. Thankfully there have been many happier occasions since[/QUOTE]

Does anyone remember that scruffy Chester fan used to come on the pitch at half time and do acrobatics !!!! he was bloody hopeless :D

Over 50 years for me too. My early teens in the 70’s spent in the Tech End were the happiest times - packed like sardines, great banter - and being, literally, swept off your feet when we scored!

1961 for me - we were 4 up against Darlington after 20 minutes and went on to win 5 nil. Hooked.

Just over 60 years for me...Where did that go..:eek:

Have to admit, I don't recognise any of the players celebrating what I assume is the Welsh Cup in the photo.. Except third from the left......Is that a young John Neal..?.

Very late 60's for my first game. I seem to recall a steepish climb up the back of the kop to get to it. I was in the stand above the kop (rickety old thing with ex cinema seats if I remember correctly) for the cup game against Middlesboro. One of my earliest memories was the ECWC match v Fc Zurich. Lucky enough to have seen many highs. I keep hoping my lad might see us get promotion for his first time.

First match I can remember was the 10 1 thrashing of Hartlepool in 1962 which would give me 57 years of "happiness"

I was going before that for a couple of years I think but was more interested in collecting plastic cups refundable bottles and discarded programmes!:D
