[Albion] 800 games up!

[raymondo]

I started a spreadsheet when I was 11 that included all the games I went to, the scorers, who I went with and anything else worth noting!
I’ve done it ever since game one (April 1987) and given I’m now 47 years old, I can’t see myself stopping!

The word spreadsheet didn't exist when I was 11

I liked your dancing in the Happy Mondays.

At least this Bez remembers something happening in the 1990s

Computers didn't exist when I was 11. Electricity had just been discovered.

VisiCalc was around in the 80s.

And accountants used “spreadsheets” decades before computers were invented. They were literally large sheets of paper on which you made your double-entry ledger recordings. The word was then borrowed by the computer industry.

I was still banging two rocks together.

Excel existed in 87?

Probably Lotus 1-2-3 back then.

Excel existed in 87?

It was hand written on maths paper or an A4 until I converted it to Excel about 7 years ago

Probably Lotus 1-2-3 back then.

Calcstar , ported to IBM PCs from CPM based machines in the early 80s,.

Electricity?

You were lucky.

Back in my hovel, we had to bang to rocks together just to keep arselves warm.
We'd only recently discovered friction.

Can I suggest that you are an imposter, the real Bez could not have done this.

 

[Mo Gosfield]

Started in 1965 and haven't got a scooby doo how many. Have looked back at fixtures and cannot remember if I was at certain games. All I can say is that I know I only missed one home game between 1976 and 1985 and have probably missed about 10-11 home games in the last 20 years.
Can't remember my first away game. Think it was Aldershot but not entirely sure.
( p.s My son keeps records and knows exactly how many he has done )
