Never post - but reading this brought back a great memory - taking day off college getting there great game and atmosphere but my lasting memory was been stood next to an old guy must have been in his eighties in tears who told me that he had been at the 1914 final as child and never thought he would see it again.

Johnny Milner, prop/2nd row for Georgian. He jumped up at the fence to get a better view of the team, lost his footing and his wedding ring caught on the fence and ripped his finger out. Hard lad was John

I've not posted on here before , but reading some of the accounts/ stories the memories came flooding back.
I was 11 and my parents took me.I can recall we arrived around kick off time and managed to get into the ground only to be in the 'kids cop' area that had walls for kids to stand on but no-one could see behind and a large group of angry hull fans were walking around the concourse behind, eventually we were all escorted around the pitch to seats at the end with a great view, will always remember the 'wall of sound' that the hull fans packed into the other 3 stands made and Grown men crying and hugging when Crooksy scored (which I happily admit to doing in 2005).
We attended the 1982 reunion dinner a few years ago (and more recently the 1983 championchip winners). Graham(Sammy) Lloyd is still adamant that the kick went over . Got some great photos with all my boyhood heroes that day.
Can remember ending up in Sportsman with Crooksy,Knocker,kemble and Dane O'hara. Great times

Diablo1967 said ''A pub-landlord running a professional sporting outfit in the best league in the hemisphere? Laughable'':4998.jpg



I was 16 at the time, and we travelled across to elland road in a reliant robin. I do remember us on the way getting caught up in the jam on the M62 and luckily we were at a junction where it happned. Unfortunately we had just passed the exit off the junction so my dad reversed down the entrance on to the motorway side to get off and I think we got to the ground with not lonjg to spare. don't remember much about the game apart from when Lee Crooks scored and turned to my dad and said 'we won the fooking cup!'

I also remember meeting Paul Woods ouside the ground after the match had finished, he was sat on a car iirc.
