    I remember bits and bobs and unusual moments...

    Having a pre-match snowball fight at Saltergate with a goalkeeper (Cherry? Leonard? Mimms?). Standing on a scruffy terrace at Feethams with a friend talking inexplicably about llamas. Being locked in after a game at Molyneux waiting to be allowed out of the ground. A memorable sinking feeling on the supporters bus back from Bootham Crescent. Rachid Harkouk hitting a free kick through a gap in the wall after our player jumped out of the way (no idea who against!). Watching Notts take Brighton apart in an away cup game and being stuck in a corner almost unable to see the game. Notts having to change and wear Huddersfield's away kit (IIRC) at Leeds Road. Harding's goal against Boro to take us to Wembley. Some referee disallowing goals and robbing us of a clear victory over Spurs. Sitting on my godfather's shoulders when he took me to my first match, against Tranmere in 1973. Being evacuated from the Main Stand when it started smoking, not long after the Bradford fire I think. These and many, many more.

    I can remember lots of the games I attended more for the fact that I 'know' I was there than for the actual details of the game much of the time.
