My first game at Maine Road on 28th September 1974(QPR) was also my first Saturday job the day after my 12th birthday when I was asked to work in one of the kiosks in the Kippax selling snacks and “maxpax.” Being from a blue family and living round the corner it was like a dream. If we tilled up quickly we could watch the second half for free. But the game got a bit tasty and so did the fans and it got very rowdy near our kiosk and being the “wet behind the ears,” grammar school girl, I asked to be moved and for the next 5 years I served the “elite” including sports commentators, the police and executives in the Main Stand. (The tips were great!) We also won that day 1 -0!
