getting thrown out of Wakefield ground when i was about 13 after been caught by a copper throwing a snowball at the ref

Coming out of wheldon lane after a cold friday night game.
Walking to the bus station and calling off at the chippy and getting a bag of chips with loads of scraps with mushy peas on top of it all.

I was about 12 years old....them were the days.
By heck did them chips taste good when you were freezing to death.

Ahhh the memories.

Did you get him ?

Watching rugby on a Saturday afternoon.

Bovril.

The Football Pink.

Blokes walking round the pitch collecting for charity holding the corners of a big sheet that you threw money into.

Fog.

Applauding good play by the opposition.

Toe-end goalkickers.

Unlimited tackles.

Proper scrums.

Fat forwards.

The list is endless.

i could have named loads but i was after the one abiding memory that sticks with you more than others,i didnt ask for a list of as many things as you can remember - consider yourself told !!

My apologies. Don't get me started.

Thats shocking just shocking

Getting autographs from players on the long walk from the changing rooms to the pitch at Odsal.

Seeing young lads being past overhead at Mount pleasent to get them to the front so they could see, and one going the other way who kept messing about, he dissapeared over the wall at the back.

My grandad trying to lift me over the turnstyles at BV.

Happy days.

Being packed into Threepenny like sardines on those massive wooden steps. Not being able to see wtf was going on went play went to the nearside corners of the pitch.

Indeed, sending the dad into the club at the front whilst sneaking off for a quick try at the Eddy end and waiting for players to come out of the new tunnel and sign autographs as they went down the old tunnel.

Good times!

having goal kicking contests at half time on various 2nd and 3rd division pitches and getting chased by portly stewards
