Earliest one I can remember, Hull Away 2-2 Feb 1976. I was 5 years old.

Earliest one I can remember is Everton in the League Cup Semi at Burnden seem to think we had drawn at their place but we lost to a Bob Latchford goal at our place.

 

Also remember a Wolves game around the same time where they were throwing bricks down off a demolished bridge on Manchester Road and a Chelsea game where their fans got in the Lever End and charged the Bolton fans out of there.

Leicester @ home, Nov '69. Lost 3-2. Shilton in goal for them in his 2nd(?) season.

earliest memory was cambridge home 6-0 early 80's but i know i saw frank worthington play for us at burnden

 

 

confused of heaton :-s

The first game I can clearly remember was the last game of the 77/78 promotion season against Fulham. I can't remember too much of the game but that was probably because it ended 0-0.

 

I do remember the pitch invasion afterwards though. Went to a couple of games that season but can't remember the games.

 

Also remember the Frank Worthington goal at home against Ipswich when we lost 3-2. Fantastic goal and I was sat on the railings behind that net.

02/03/85 Burnley at Home - lost 3-1 - Warren Joyce scored for us. Aged 5. Nearly 20 years a Wanderer.....some murderers get less. #-o

 

First away game was Rochdale away in the Division 4 season. 2-2 John Thomas scored them both, one was a penalty. I think we were losing 2-0 at one point as well.

1976 against Fulham, they had Bobby Moore, George Best and Rodney red ginger Marsh and we still dicked them 2-1, a super bullet header from Big Sam - 'Ave it !!!!!!

first away, banjo players 1-1 82 (i think)

Late 50's, early 60's can't remember the year but we lost 1-0 to Chelski at Burnden, Hoppy in goal, Chelski's scorer was Bobby Tambling.

Nov 65 V Massive won 1-0
