74 and my first match was on 21 November 1959 when Jimmy Robson scored 5 (five). My father took me on and it was the only game we attended together, the mill he worked at had closed and he was buying a corner shop which meant he would be working on Saturdays henceforth.

No different from the Barnes one against Chelsea a few years ago.
Except that Matic came frrom behind Barnes to try and nick the ball as Ash was passing the ball back to Jones and was a fraction late. Thus Barnes wasnt tackling Matic.

Blackburn's antics have been pathetic, no doubt about that, but the way some people are talking it's as though they've missed out on tickets to see us play in the FA Cup final at Wembley.
Some people write match reports for every game, and some people ( me ) value those reports.
