I can't remember my first match, but the first one I do remember was the FA Cup 3rd round replay against Preston NE in 1961...fast forward forty-odd years and Wynonie Harris pursuaded me to go and see the Unibond Premier winners play their last match of the season against the bottom club, Hyde. What a boring match that was, 1-0; and to cap it all, my Dad got me to carry a collecting bucket round at half time for charity. Nevertheless, the magic worked and I fell in love with Stanley again...
