Exeter City - 28th August 1982 1-1
Doncaster Rovers - 31st August 1982 League Cup 1-1
Millwall (A) - 2nd October 1982 3-0. My first visit to the original Den. Crowd: 3,004. Town fans: me and hardly anyone else. I remember going to the toilet at the top of the terrace. I remember looking out over derelict scrubland through a window when three Millwall fans came in and started mimicking a Yorkshire accent. I got out of there quick.
AFC Bournemouth (A) - 6th November 1982 0-1
Reading (A) - 18th December 1982 1-1
Chesterfield - 27th December 1982 3-1
Bradford City - 1st January 1983 6-3. One of THE great games at Leeds Road, Brian Stanton scoring 4, including three in six minutes
Chelsea (A) - 12th January 1983 FA Cup 2-0
Preston North End - 26th February 1983 1-1
Doncaster Rovers (A) - 1st March 1983 0-4
Lincoln City - 2nd April 1983 1-1
Leyton Orient (A) - 16th April 1983 1-3
Newport County - 7th May 1983 1-0. Town gained promotion back to what is now known as the Championship. I've got a framed picture in our study of David Cowling scoring the only goal
Wigan Athletic - 10th May 1983. A bit of an anti-climax and a bizarre OG by Malcolm Brown
