What were you doing 48 years ago today? on 14:43 - Sep 19 by norfsufblue | Me too , in fact I know my first game was the following Saturday v Burnley which we won 3-2 and I fell in love with The Town.. so on Wednesday that will be my 48th anniversary then |
Wasn’t local so first game was a couple of years later but the die was cast around that time! | | | |

What were you doing 48 years ago today? on 09:37 - Sep 19 by urbanblue | I was there standing in the west stand on the green stool that my old man had made for me. I remember being excited to see Gunter Netzer play but not much else ... |
Is Netzer one of those great players who is hardly mentioned these days? Was he up there with the best? I’m hardly aware of him. | |

Absolutely....I seem to recall England got beat by West Germany at Wembley 3-1 and him being in the team that ran rings round us... had a fearsome shot too | | | |

Agreed, that Netzer performance at Wembley was really something. It wasn't just his passing which was terrific, but in an era where players like him tended to get kicked into oblivion, he also had a enough of a hard edge as well. | | | |
