Surprised you didnt get a bigger response to this one armchair.

We stayed in bathgate and my dad had no car and wasnt a big footie fan really, so first game he took us (me & brother) was Airdrie v Cowdenbeath - must have been about 1970 / 71. Airdrie was the closest biggish team at the time.
2-1 Cowdenbeath I think.

Also remember him taking us to Tynecastle for Hearts v Rangers (my brother was hearts) a couple of years later. 2-1 Rangers I think (but the memory is fading).

Started going on my own regularly to Ibrox and away games about 74/75 season.

Was at Easter Road when we won the league there for the first time in a wee while in 1975.

First fitba game was Crusader v Linfield in 1979.

First Rangers game was against the Arabs at Ibrox,in the Copeland Rd with bears giving D Dodds,the elephant man,treatment.Think it was 83/84 season on a cold Feb night.
I was simply in awe,with the size of crowd and Ibrox,having been used to a few thousand at Belfast Linfield games.
First Chelsea game was 86,August/Sept,v Shef Wed..........top banter in the Shed.

Talking of first game bbab and your Chelsea comments reminded me of the fact I am a massive NFL fan and I have supported the Broncos for 28 years now and I have never seen them live - ever. I honestly cannot wait until I see my team live in front of 77,000 people. Watched them my whole life until stupid am.
