It IS amazing but I can't quite see it, like I did in 72-73-74. I can't quite get my head round it. I think I'll have to watch the video of the season to grasp it.

I missed the Grimbsy match, my grandparents went without telling me, but I stood on the seat at Boundary Park six times (two disallowed goals) in the next round.

I remember walking with the C&B army to the ground and being scared of just how hard the army was, as a 12 years old boy.

Kinnell, I was a child with my grandparents. I had a great view of the match and all the crowd hokey-cokey.
