Years later took my grandson to his first game, Burnley, lost 0-2.

My grandfather would have been in his early 60'sHow old was your grandad in 1942? Him or his dad may have remembered the founding of Fosse?
I remember the Boxing day game v Fulham in the snow, and would have sworn that Doog scored but there it is. I was also at the Manyoo game, which was one of the first times we were on Match of the Day; I think they were in white. We actually played OK but David Herd was unstoppable. I think my first home game was in 1964 shortly after Bobby Roberts signed but cannot remember which one. I know my first away game was the 1965 Cup match v Villa when Doog and String scored.I believe I went to earlier matches but no recollection and sadly now nobody to ask.
First one I definitely remember was on a frozen pitch just after Xmas 65 aged 7. Thrashed Fulham 5-0
Sinclair 2
Gibson
Roberts
Stringy
However I’m pretty convinced I went to the Man Utd game the previous month where they tanked us 5-0 at FS. Best Charlton Connelly and Herd 2. I remember them being applauded off

8th October 1966 - 3-0 win vs Forest.
Barry Endean scored for Watford that day. He was a big old unit. He also scored the goal that knocked Liverpool out in the 6th Round of the FA Cup!Len Glover, sadly we lost 2-1 away at Watford January 1970.
