I'll kick it off with animals running on the pitch. Presumably stadiums are far more enclosed and difficult to get in to these days.

Anyone remember a fox running on the pitch at ER?

Teams kicking balls about right before kick off

Green and White popcorn

Decent Atmosphere

Rattles. Rosettes. People striking matches on the concrete posts holding up the crush barriers. Crush barriers, come to think of it.

They were cars for the disabled, mate. They had the opportunity to park around the pitch in those days.

with the captian of the team giving it a healthy boot as he walked out first

also teams wearing their tracky tops and the physio coming round picking them all up when the game begins

Smurf · 02-04-08, 18:59

Genuine enjoyment.

psychocandy · 02-04-08, 19:06

Wasnt the fox incident a night game against the huns?

Maybe it's just because im a wee bit older and see things differently now but you dont often see a really packed east terracing. when i was 7/8 being in there always seemed a bit more crammed/mental than it has of late.

Greenmachine · 02-04-08, 19:17

The guy walking round the track selling food and soft drinks..

The Golden Goal ticket...(anyone remember them ?)

Umbrellas..

paggers during the game (pre-segregation)..
