As a 14 year old bored on school hols it was great and it was Port Vale who they where playing .
Got the train from Hull down to Kings Cross with my Scoop magazine !

Class mate.

Big trip for a 14 year old too. I never got that far.

A bloke in one on my classes supported Ipswich and had nobody to go with so bought me and another mate a ticket and we travelled up and through London and up to Ipswich when we were probably 16.

That was exciting. Ipswich were ****e and it was a library if I remember rightly.

That's about all I've got but there was no snow!

Quite a few of them do find him a bit of an embarrassment, tbf.

He got a ban from St Mary’s for pissing on the seats. He must be in his 50’s ffs.

Has he?!

He owns and runs a book shop apparently in Pompey.

I've driven past him on the A3 and people were tooting him.

Yes it was exciting !
Hardly any football on the telly back then so seeing some was great !
The waking up on a Saturday morning with excitement of going to the game was ace back then !
I couldn't wait to catch the football special to Boothferry Park !
Sometimes used to get the bus into Hull city centre then get the train to the ground .
Good days

I think maybe the only way you'd get near that level of excitement is if you do away games.

Travelling to unknown places and watching a game/having a few beers.

Colleague of mine in his 50s sticks to just Pompey away games - says its so much more fun and lively.

I'd love to go to more!
