    Shame is Billy, my mates went to our match at Scarborough and the cup game at Plough Lane so it cudda been better. Always hoped we'd get Huddersfield away in the cup.

    Never been in a Scottish ground for some reason, always fancied a Celtic-Rangers match but could never talk the lads into it.

    Been to Old firm games at Ibrox & the atmosphere is incredible.
    Went to the last home international Scotland v England at Hampden. We drew 1-1.
    That fat cnut Mark McGee scored for them & Tony Woodcock scored for us.
    1984. Was 17 yo, Norn Iron won it that year.

    It was easier back in the day mate ........ I only ever failed to get into one game and that was Villa PArk when we took about 10,000 down at the end of a season for a 'promotion' game.
