I don't have much pre-2000 era. Went to Southampton for a League Cup 2nd round tie on a Tuesday night a couple of year back.

 

If we're talking about small numbers, Sunderland away in the cup a few year back. The following just about scraped into 3 digits.

 

I know I've mentioned it before but I'm still quite proud that the first ever competitive Bolton game i went to was the last game at Burden.

Yes, I went to the Emley game - I think that was the day Tony Kelly eventually came good for us.

 

A few I was theres - Southend on a Tuesday night with maybe 100 or so there when Stubbs scored early on (1st or 2nd minute), our first win at Ashton Gate for god knows how many years but still missed Patterson's goal but my favourite - Wrexham May 1988 I think

Agreed! Though a big shout for Blackburn away 6 months earlier.

For sheer masochism, losing 4-0 at Plough Lane in the snow - or indeed the Wimbledon LC 2nd leg at Selhurst in front of <2000.

For ecstacy followed by agony the Soton cup game. Barry fucking Horne.

Plus, horrible though it was was I suppose I'm glad to say I was there to witness Barry Knight's efforts.

Plus the Muamba events at WHL will be forever etched. Never known an atmosphere like it (in the stadium and on the walk back to station) and hope I'll never see it again.

Plovdiv is the only game I have ever to and gone thinking if I missed it I would regret it for a long time.

 

Bayern Munich is up there too.

Munich for me, similar to Bolton pro. Tell yoonited or city fans at work they don't believe you because they don't know shit about owt but their own club!

Plovdiv by a country mile for me. Theres nothing I wouldn't have done to get that. Amazing night.

 

The Hull Friday night game isn't far behind. Cheers Dad!

 

Think the lowest following I've been in is Ipswich away on a Sunday on Ferny travel. 80 max I reckon. Sure we won as well with Bergson scoring.

Premiership game that, was on Sky Sports. Must have been our first season back in the Premiership, 2001/02.
