MarkD Posted April 29, 2019 Posted April 29, 2019 (edited) The first game was Keegan's debut in August 1971 v Forest - he scored after about 10 minutes - and we won 3-1.Went in The Paddock with my dad, who passed me up to some fella in the front row on the Main Stand and I sat next to him in an empty seat.

So, we stood on the Kop and watched it together. Afterwards, I asked him why he had wanted to go and he said 'to make sure that he (Rush) had finally gone.'
Cam Posted April 29, 2019 Posted April 29, 2019 (edited) Date: 06 October 1987Opposition: Blackburn Rovers, League CupLocation in ground: Anfield Road End, possibly with the away fans but not sure. Loads of Rovers fans to the left of us in the opposite corner to where away fans are situated now (iirc).Starting Line Up: Grobbelaar, Venison Lawrenson Hansen Nicol, Johnston Wark Whelan Barnes, Beardsley Aldridge.Final Score: 1-0.Goalscorers: Aldridge, last minute (though I didn't think it was that late) from a controversial corner that was allegedly kicked just as Beardsley dropped it. Went with my dad, brother and his mate. Recall parking up by some new houses near Goodison (which I'm yet to refind) and walking for ages in the cold. DJ George played Sam Fox at halftime (possibly "I Surrennder"). My memory is everything was very dark - especially the Kop; I just have it in my mind are being very black rather than the usual red-dominated colour-fest it is now. Edited April 29, 2019 by Cam

Nerik Posted April 29, 2019 Posted April 29, 2019 31st October 1996CWC 2nd leg vs Sion- Score 6-3. Sat in the main stand. We had won 2-1 away in the first leg so I thought I was guaranteed an easy ride for my first game. We immediately went 2-0 down before McManaman scored before half-time. Bjornebye then levelled the score with a free kick only for Sion to score again (and to be in line to qualify due to the away goal rule). Barnes then scored a backheeled goal before Fowler grabbed a brace. Berger wrapped up the game with a late goal.James, Scales, Babb, McAteer, Matteo, Bjornebye, Barnes, Thomas, McManaman, Fowler, Berger. Subs: Warner, Ruddock, Redknapp (replaced Scales after an hour), Kennedy, Collymore (was the beginning of the end for him already. He was left on the bench following some disciplinary issue if I remember well).
