Do you remember your first football match you attended? Was it a Town match? Can you remember who played? What was score? Anything stand out memorable from the game? What thing sticks in your memory about the experience? |  |

We lost 2-0 at home to 9 man Crystal Palace.
Clearly I’m a glutton for punishment. |  |

April 72', Sheff Urd at home, we lost, I was, as Bobby said, unable to stop myself falling in love. |  | | |

24th October 1970 at Portman Road
Ipswich 1 Liverpool 0
Town - Sivell, Hammond, Mills, Morris, Baxter, McNeil, Robertson, Viljoen, Woods, Collard, Hill, Sub Lambert.
Liverpool - Clemence, Lawler, Yeats, Smith, Lloyd, Hughes, Hall, Lindsay, Heighway, McLaughlin, Thompson. Sub St. John
Mick Hill scored the winner for Ipswich. I still have the match programme.
I was 12 and went with my mate and his dad. Couldn't really ask for a better start than that and I was hooked! I only missed one home game in the next 12 years and that was when we played Birmingham on a weekday afternoon in 1973, due to not being able to use the floodlights during the miner's strike. I was still at school. [Post edited 4 Aug 20:33]

Town v Wolves, early 70's. Strangely I remember more wolves players than ours - Dave Wagstaffe and Derek Dougan (who I think scored for them). David Best was in goal for us. Can't even remember the final score - suspect it was 0:1 - unless someone else knows better! |
Your memory is failing you my old mate!
According to the Pride of Anglia website, it wasn't 1970-1 as Dougan didn't play.
It wasn't 1971-72 as although Dougan & Wagstaffe played for Wolves, Laurie Sivell was in goal for Town.
It was either 21 Apr 1973 Ipswich 2 (Morris, Whymark) Wolves 1 (Richards) or the next season - 27 Oct 1973 Ipswich 2 (Morris, Hamilton), Wolves 0
Those are the only games I can see where Best, Dougan & Wagstaffe all played.
So whichever it was, you started with a win! | | | |

Maybe 1969? Dougan and Best played and Dougan scored.
But maybe my memory is messing about - it has been known to happen you know! |  |

Ah yes, I didn't look at the games before 1970. | | | |

Weirdly enough mine was West Ham v Barnsley. Pretty sure it was an FA Cup match and they went in 2-0 down and ended up winning 3-2. The Julian Dicks/Ian Bishop era.
Was a pretty good game considering I wasn't converted into a Hammer afterwards! | | | |

Ipswich Vs Watford November 3rd 1984
Final score was 3 - 3 but as I was with my grandparents we left 2 mins early to avoid the rush when the score was 2 - 1 to Watford. Got a momento of the game....
I'm the one in the middle. | | | |
