Post by: Reg Smeeton on Tuesday, June 12, 2018, 09:42:03 My earliest memory, is being lifted over the turnstiles, by the old man, as a little un sometime in the 50's. Shrivenham Road terrace, you'd then get down the front to peer over the fence. I don't recall anything of the football...

Title: Re: It's my Golden Anniversary! Post by: Munichred on Tuesday, June 12, 2018, 15:41:41 Maybe a Diamond for me. My dad took me to a testimonial game in the late fifties in which Stanley Matthews played. A few other league games around that time too, always on the Stratton Bank boards. That was when I found out my dad swore a bit, but not as strongly as some do now...
