How can folk remember their first games and goals? I reckon I was 4 when I first went to the football.
Indeed, I would probably be the same, over 50 years ago......mind you, my loon remembers every game I took him to, albeit he is only coming up for 20......come to think of it, I canna even mind what I had for my supper last night!
Now, I can mind regarding fitba:
1st trophy seen won
1st scrap
1st tin aff ma heid
1st time lifted
1st time locked up
1st Euro adventure
1st time scamming in
1st game,goal or fitever......does not register with this auld mannie.

I wasn't taken to my first match until I was 8 and just a few months before I was 9; primarily because nobody that could've taken me cared about football. However, they must've caved in because by March 1984 the bug had bitten quite deeply.
Nowadays, I watch people take kids (0-6) and I think what's the point, they won't remember. Your first match should be memorable enough for you to recall. I remember walking in through the Beach End and the excitement of seeing the green turf and the goals. For 99% of the crowd that day it was just a normal league match against St Mirren, but for me it was a start of passion that continues to this day, and hopefully, well beyond...

Cha Bum Kun was faster than ****e aff a shovel.
And Considine was playing left back. It wis his fault even then.
I have visions of the bloke in question whizzing diwn the left wing.
For it to have been Consi's fault, he would have had to be playing right back.
