Great that so many of us members of the 38010 club are still going. Crazy to think that was over 50 years ago now!

Another member of the 38010 club here. Without me it would only be a 38009 club, ha ha. No congestion for me as I was on my usual bench in the old West Stand. Yes we had long wooden benches in those days. The agressive Leeds fans I "bumped" into post-match thought it was a done deal. Was so glad we beat them (eventually).

I was standing in front of the Portman (Cobbold) stand. There were no seats or Exec boxes then.

I say standing. But wedged would be a better description. Being a teenager and not the tallest seeing anything bar people’s backs was a momentary thing!

It was packed. I remember it being a great atmosphere/experience though. We knew it was special because it was the furthest we’d got, we had a good side and it was dirty Leeds.

Where were you?

I was only a small 14 year old but oddly had one of the best views possible considering i couldn't get to the front wall in Portman lower as normal. I managed to get perched up over everyones head at the back on the rail over the downward steps to the concourse.... dead level with north stand end penalty spot , absolutely cracking view of that David Johnson header that smashed against the bar. Dont know if snyone else remembers that?
