1956/57 season with Grandad Jack. Came to live with him in 1962 and watched every game at home, first team and reserves, Walking from Oak Drive, Acton. Tommy Bannon, Alan Fox, Ally McGowan all played in my first game I think. For a while the Ken Barnes team really played some good football in 1962/63. Now I have moved away I only get to see Wrexham live once or twice a season, but I have a feeling that I will be coming over for a few more games once we hopefully start to play more attractive football. Keates ball is no fun at all.

Mid latter half of the 90's. Used to stand in the lower paddock. Was always fun down there as the opposition subs would have to warm up in front of the fans. The players used to love the back and forth too.

1964 first game, big break from early seventies to late eighties, and then back again early nineties till now, what a trip, how the game and racecourse has changed in that time....and whats still to come......

I remember going to see an away game at Tranmere on the supporters bus and Schofield stopping the bus and asking for directions to their ground, I think he played in the game.

First match 1972 (March, I think) Welsh Cup Semi Final v Newport County. We won 2-0 and went on to win the final and qualify for Europe for the first time.
