In RaWZ we trust....Amen.
Just a bit of fun to see the age demographic of posters.

For me it was 1971 for the first match,I had taken a interest the year before aged 9.

I wonder if there are any supporters about(not of this forum) who went to
SJP pre 1935 ?

Cow Shed
89/90 promotion year my dad started bringing me We got caught up in the buzz around the place that year I was twelve at the time we ended up going to every home game and I still have every programme although the collection was completed some years later I used to have my dads old cow shed card but it has been misplaced for a few years now unfortunately.

Early 1958, I think. Another old fart who started going to SJP when we were in the Third Division (South).

following through
The season we got relegated to the conference. Fancied something to do on a Saturday afternoon so went and watched us get beat by Torquay 2-1. Place I worked had season tickets and for some reason nobody else wanted them so that's how i got hooked.
