I was just past my seventh birthdayin October when my dad took me to my first game. When leaving he put a box in the car. When I asked him what that was for he told me that when we gett in the Kippax Street stand I was going to get to the front and then stand on the box so I could see over the wall!!! I always remember outside walking around the ground, the enormaty of it. Also that all the houses backing on to the ground had there back gates open. I found out that this was so people could leave their bicycles and motor bikes while the match was on. If I remember rightly it was 1/6 in old money!!(7.5pence)To make my day complete we won 3-2 with Albert Harley scoring a hat-trick.The love afair was born. That season we were relagated on the3 last day of the season at West ham were we lost 6-1 and to rub it in United beat Leicester in the cup final, some things dont change or just may be? Always optermistic life long blue, best wishes leslie cox
