3 games that stick out for being a right miserable day out. (Home or away)
1. Going to Burnley on a boxing day to arrive at the ground and the ref coming on the bus with apologies to say he had just called the game off.
We shot off to Preston and their plastic pitch to see them draw 2-2 with Exeter. Good quality coach, Rob Trent had the TV fall on him.
2. Losing 2-0 at Notts County which just about relegated us in 2002. Depressing day all round, The Queen Mum popped her clogs that day. God bless the gin swilling pensioner.
3. 9-0 defeat at Lincoln, Dec 82. Just stood there cold and stunned as we were like Bambi on ice at the back. We gave up at 3-0, and they just kept coming. Then the train broke down on the way back to Rosyth where I was stationed. 1am in the morning. Went to the phone box to ring a taxi and it was vandalised. A 6 mile walk back to the base in snow. About 3-30 am I got to my bed.
