First ever away game 10:34 - Mar 22 with 5836 viewsChurchman

I noticed this on the Sunderland forum. My first ever away game was Arsenal in 1972. We won 1-0. I was struck by how grand and big Highbury was compared to PR, but thought the open terrace Clock End looked a bit rubbish.

Arsenal was also my first away match - I think Kevin Campbell scored a hat-trick. At the time they had just rebuilt on of their stands which looked very impressive at the time.

The Arsenal fans were very quiet.

That was a Monday night live on Sky game. Remember watching that in the Plough or somewhere. Some cracking away results that season.

Did you go by coach? I remember having to walk through Stanley Park in the dark and everyone was buying bottles of water to wash the dog mess of their trainers.

I’m pretty sure it was 1972 at Norwich. I also think it was a 0-0 draw, but a hazy memory so could be wrong. I was only a nipper.

We have no village green, or a shop. It's very, very quiet. I can walk to the pub.

Tottenham away. 17 August 1974. We won 1-0, goal scored by the "original" David Johnson.

Great day out except for seeing dozens and dozens of skinhead Spurs fans that a 14 year old Town fan wouldn't want to argue with!

I went to that. My dad and I went in the wrong part of the ground and got chased out by a load of them.

I don’t know if it counts as an away game, but the Charity Shield at Wembley in 78. Town were rubbish. I remember a lot of talk about injuries, but looking at the XI now on paper it seems ok. The pitch was too far away.

Ha, ha, ha!.....I went by train with my brother-in-law who is 7 or 8 years older than me so he was only early twenties.

We were also in with the home fans - (I've never forgiven my brother-in-law!) - along the side of the pitch. We must have got in relatively early as we were in an upper tier (for want of a better expression) but right at the front leaning against the wall looking directly over the lower tier. I seem to remember there was quite a height difference between the two tiers.

I was told not to celebrate if we scored!

Mine was the battle of Highbury (or the first I can remember at least):



We were sat in the East stand and things got a little heated to match the game. When they scored the winner, we had a couple of hundred people going nuts in our faces (we'd celebrated the Norwich goals openly). The result still stings.

Has anyone ever looked at their own postings for last day or so? Oh my... so sorry. Was Ullaa

I was at that enjoying corporate hospitality. My first away game was at Selhurst Park on an Easter Monday probably;y around 1957. 1-1 draw, pitch virtually devoid of grass and rock hard.

Wembley 2000.

But that probably doesn't count so it was 4th November 2000 - Newcastle away - lost 2-1 - Shearer x 2, Stewart x 1.

I remember being knackered climbing all those stairs as a kid and couldn't believe the size of the stadium. Made PR look tiny.

Arsenal for me too. October 1969 0-0. Think we lost 1-0 in 1972 btw.
