It's amazing what silly little things I can remember from various games I attended this season.

The Chelsea game was a great occasion, quality football by both sides. I remember Houseman flying down the wing. The Bradford Park Avenue game was only my second away game and I remember going on the supporters coach from Huddersfield, even though I lived in Birstall. For the Northampton and Wolves games I went in the paddock below the main stand - the only times I ever went in there, we lost both games. I blame myself. I enjoyed getting revenge on Coventry City after they inflicted my first ever defeat the season before. The Hull City game at Christmas was a magnificent game. The crowd was over 32k and we'd played them away the day before. We watched that game from the corner flag between the Cowshed and East Terrace.
