That Sheff Utd game and the Exeter game ( '72 ) have to be two of the most enjoyable and memorable occasions most of us here will ever experience at BP

Top drawer performances from top of the table teams both times and so deserved all the accolades too

Just hope that our newer / younger supporters get to witness if only once what I have had the privilege to see more than once.....GTFC as champions

That was my first "proper" season at BP. I naively thought silverware was something that came along regularly. Wasn't the auto windscreen the next trophy we won 18 years later? Probably wouldn't have come back if I'd known

It was my first ever Town game. Dad gave me the choice of this or going to watch the gimps. Thank god I chose Town. Bl88dy Sliding Doors moment. Sends the shivers down my spine to think of my life if I had made the wrong choice.

I didn't.

It was a great day watching Town win the title in front of a electric atmosphere in BP ( reminds me of the Everton cup game)

I see Towns two goalscorers that day are at the Carr Lane Social Club tomorrow night -

At the end of the game the Sheff Utd fans threw coins at our handicap supporters as they had to stay behind so the fans did not mix outside.

Joe Waters ran full length of the pitch to score a belter. Games like that hooked me as a kid and 30 odd years later I can still recall shoving my feet through the picket fence at the front of the Pontoon to get a better view.


Batch, Crombie, Moore K, Wiggington, Cumming, Waters, Bonnyman, Ford, Emson, Drinkell, Whymark. Love you all, You are the reason I'm on here. You've had help from Todd, Handyside, Futcher P, Groves, Mendonca, Macca etc etc etc. Up The Mariners!!!!!!!!!
