I have been going regularly since 1964 or 65.
I was only 9 or 10, but used to go with mates from school. Different world back then.

77/78 for me and it was indeed a different world. One that i miss in many ways but time stands still for no man.

The only thing i remember about my first game was Alex Stepney was in goal.

And Harry Obeney, Billy Neill and Barry Rowan were also playing.
Who would have thought I would meet 2 of those heroes 50 odd years later?

 

[Soul Man]

1967 we beat Cardiff 2-1. For years I thought it was 3-1 but then found out otherwise

 

[ringo_the_lion]

My first game was at home to Luton 1973, lost 1-0 in the pissing rain but loved it, after school on the Monday I went to a shop not far from where I lived and bought a Millwall scarf and that was it!!, a life sentence, I went to every home game for the rest of that season and got a season ticket for the next.

So anytime between 63-66!

Me and three mates from school used to go to Bexleyheath & Welling and decided to go upmarket and see what Millwall was all about. That was towards the end of 61/62 season. Can't remember the game but was hooked straight away. I certainly remember the 1-3 FA Cup defeat to Shrewsbury in September 1962 and the changeover from Ron Gray to Billy Gray. Loved Pat Terry from the first moment. Sixty one years ago. Now sit in Block 4 with one of those mates from school plus my two daughters and four grandchildren.

People often don't realise what a great family club we are

Done all 92 league grounds, only a few without the Lions.

Off to Luton now. COYL

My Dad took me when I was 2 and I am now 73. Sadly he passed away when I was only six but I started going regularly when I was 13 and had a paper round so I could pay my way. In those days I could get the train from Kidbrooke for 2 and 4 pence. Get a programme for 6 pence and 2 Bob to get in so I would have tuppence change from 5 Bob. What a deal!

 

[Arthur2shedsJackson]

So anytime between 63-66!

Probably nearer to 1966. I think it was just before the world cup. I was 5 at the time.

You're ten year older than me then.

 

[Peckham Lion]

so I would have tuppence change from 5 Bob.

What did you do with the tuppence that was left?

What did you do with the tuppence that was left?

Penny chews and a flying saucer ?

 

[Peckham Lion]

Penny chews and a flying saucer ?

[Overseaswall]

First players I remember were players nicky chatterton , John Jackson ect I think the old man took me before these but couldn't remember much about it, my old man saids he took me once and I fell asleep!!, somethings never change

 

[buster35]

[I hate gloryhunters]

1979/80 season. Blackpool. Won 2-0. Nicky Chatterton and John Mitchell.

First game was1956, aged 5, on my Dads shoulders. Was going regularly on my own with mates aged about 9 onwards, when we moved from Catford to Pomeroy Street, New Cross. Would wander into the ground many days during school holidays while still at Kender St primary. Did every one of the long unbeaten home run. Would’ve been rude not to.
