What were you doing 48 years ago today? 09:23 - Sep 19 with 3201 viewsITFC_nostalgia

I guess the answer for most of us is “not existing” but for some lucky TWTDers the answer would be “watching Real Madrid play at Portman Rd”….

I was that mistake my dad was always worried he'd make.

Never be afraid to share your thoughts.

I was there, and to this day still annoyed with myself that I didn't go to the away European games that season (handful of my mates did!). My first was the Feyennord away the next season.

Took the train home from university to see that one. Not sure I had any notion how rare such days would be!

Took the train home from university in Scotland just to watch that game, and headed straight back next day. Tiring but exhilarating. Not sure I had any notion how rare such nights would be.

Was so proud and privileged to have been there and to witness how The Town was evolving into one of the best teams in Europe. Halcyon days indeed

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!

I was there, standing to the left side of the North Stand. A small group of us would always meet up there.

Don't think I really properly understood the magnitude of the game tho at the time!

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.

48 years! Wow! I was in the Churchmans as usual with my brother, standing behind the goal on our wooden stool. I was 15, my brother 11. Our first European game.

I think I’ve still got the programme …… I loved our European nights under the Portman Road lights . Bloody magical . I stood down at the front of the North Stand in those days ….
