What was your 1st opening game of the season - Home or Away

[Spunk Bubble]

Mine was Grimsby at home. 1985-86 season. 2-2 draw and a cracking game. Dean Saunders came off the bench with his bubble perm. Legend !!

 

[Jimbo26]

York City 1987

 

[Leekbrookgull]

Home,Aldershot 73/4 ??

 

[FalmerforAll!**]

Southend 00/01

The less said the better!

 

[Albion Edd]

Think it must have been the 6-0 win at home to Mansfield

 

[Flavor Flav]

Think it was Reading a few years back, terrific start to the season, if you deduct the other 89 minutes.

Ipswich 1982 Neil Smillies debut 1-1 ............what a season!!!!!!!!!

 

[El Presidente]

1981/2 (I think), a 1-1 draw at West Ham

 

[Seasider]

Mansfield 6-0 - can't recall any others usually away working or on holiday

 

[murciagull]

Walsall home 1970 1-1 i think

 

[cheshunt seagull]

Bristol City at home 72/73. Getting there involved a sprint back from a wedding in Reigate, I've never seen my Dad drive so fast. Got in the South Stand just in time to see Irvine put as in front. Ended up 1-1.

 

[Alex Alex Dawson oo! oo!]

Brizzle Rovers at the Goldstone in August 1960; 5-1 to us I believe (Adrian Thorne x4 & Bill Currie).
And I'll be as excited at Gresty Road this weekend as that 6 year old was walking up Fonthill Road 48 years ago.

Arsenal 4-0 at home 79

 

[Mackenzie]

York City 1987

Fairly sure this was my first as well. Nelson scored on his debut, and finished with 32 that year.

Probably one of the most enjoyable (footballing) years of my life.

The first game I can remember was Albion vs Plymouth at the Goldstone. I sat in the south stand with my dad (I think, I was about 8) and the score was 2-1... but I can't remember to who. It musta been around 1990, anyone offer any assistance?

All I remember was hearing 'the referee's a wanker'

hmm, I think it might have been this game

1988 vs Bradford City

It was about my 5th ever game. We lost 3-1 and went on to lose about 8 games in a row, and win 2 games in the first 15, but luckily I still loved it

 

[Seagullible]

think it was Mansfield first game at Withdean but certain I must have been to the Goldstone on opening day
