My overriding memory of my first match (we beat Newcastle 4-2) was of my father telling me that the bloke next to him said we should leave early to avoid the rush. So we did, as I was desperately hoping to see a 5th go in.
No recollection of anyone singing 'is there a fire drill', mind you
Have a vague memory of us beating Newcastle 4-2 and 4-0 in the space of a few days, presumably league and cup.
Evening games generally involved a long lonely wait on Finchley Central for a Mill Hill East spur train.
Got a job in Woolworths in North Finchley at age 14 which curtailed Saturday matches. Evening Standard after work for results, consumed alongside bag of chips on bus ride home (221).
Saka and Martinelli can both take a good corner. Saliba's a big lad. And Gabby has a decent goal return for a CH. I think we should do it more.
Gutted we didn't invent it. But at least I now know that Stroller used to do the near post flick on himself. Wish my old man was alive to ask him about it.
I did - was getting regular updates. Fortunately sense has prevailed and it has been saved
