First game Reading at home March 2001.

Similar age here. My Dad started taking me when I was very young, so I would say I have been a regular since the late 90s. My first match was a 3-1 loss against Oldham in 1997 but I don't really remember anything before Denis Smith. Even the 02/03 promotion season is a distant memory.

My first away match was at Stoke in 2002, where I met Smith and all the players.

My dad took me to my first game at Wrexham when I was six in 1962. I took him in his wheelchair to his last game three seasons ago. He passed aged 90, but thanks to him I've got brilliant memories of being at The Racecourse, watching good and bad football, making good friends. It's what it's all about, belonging.

Easter Saturday, 1951. (In the days when matches were scheduled for Good Friday, Saturday and Easter Monday - on meagre wages!)

Dad took me at 1.30 pm for the 3.15 ko, so that I could stand at the fence just behind and to the left of the Kop goal.
Billy Tunnicliffe scored. Crowd of 10,000.

Roller-coaster for 70 years.

2016 I started going home and away. Have had hardly any good times to shout about so very excited for the future. Might actually see what a cup run looks like.
