Result in your first ever game.

[DTS]

GoDoDtS is coming to her first full game on Saturday. She has seen the Friendly at Eastbourne and an Under 10's SUFC match but this is her first game and were both excited as its DoDtS as I said I would treat him to Fish and Chips before the game.

I was wondering if the outcome of the game effects your likelyhood of coming back. So my question is what was your first result of your first Blues game.

Mine was a crushing 6-2 defeat vs Notts County. Geoff Pike getting a hatrick for them I think.

 

[Rudi Luftwaffe]

2-1 win against Plymouth Argyle.

Arrested for letting off a flare when we scored the winner.

 

[BrettieAngell]

4-1 win against Halesowen in the FA Cup 1st round.

 

[Beefy]

I remember the game - Preston at Roots Hall. Guy Butters was playing for us. I thought it was 1987 but apparently 1989. According to the thread below from when I looked into it last, we won.

Mine was the 2-1 defeat at home to Derby back when if we had won the game we would have topped the Championship (or Division 1 as it was known in those days!) This was circa 1992 I think.

 

[Shrimper]

If my mind is correct, it was a 1-1 draw against Cardiff in Jan 2001. A Weston (OG)

 

[Rusty Shackleford]

We beat Stockport County 2-0 on Halloween Night, 1980. Stood on the North Bank with my Dad and it was bloody freezing. Terry Gray and Keith Mercer scored.

 

[Firestorm]

Friday October 27 1967 Home to Aldershot in Div 4 Drew 1 1 Phil Chisnall scored and Robins DB says there were 12,101 in attendance

Mine was Manchester United @ home think we won 1-0 and am sure the goal scorer was a Fred Eastwood

Sat Dec 16th Home vs Chesterfield was my first game. We won 3-2 and it was one of the most entertaining matches i have been to. End to end all game and i think Ben Abbey popped up to get us the win! The spirit of RH has kept me bringing me back ever since!

2-2 home to charlton. Steve grit/curbishley were joint managers and one of them got sent from the bench after kicking off. Cracking game!

 

[Fish]

Lost 1-0 at home to Sheffield United, April 1984. Late breakaway goal.

Got relegated to Division Four at the end of the season with Exeter, Scunthorpe and Port Vale.

As an aside, the crowd of 4,971 that day was comfortably the biggest of the season for what is now the equivalent of League 1. To put that ion context, we were getting worried about our crowds dipping down to that level last season in the division below.

Happy days.

I think it was 1-1 at home to Orient. In around 2002-2003...


maybe it was 1-2 in 03-04....

 

[Shrimper2thecore]

0-0 with Cambridge at the Hall

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

A 3-2 win against Wigan, including "that" goal by David Crown

 

[tice_18]

3-2 loss to Shrewsbury, 2002/03 season. Tes Bramble shanked a penalty horribly wide.

 

[Rob1920]

3-0 win against Swindon, 4th Div, Friday night game. Think it was '75.

 

[SIT DAN]

75/76 season and a 3 - 3 draw with Port Vale at home. Seem to recall we were leading 3 - 0 at half time?

 

[FarmdogSUFC]

2005/06 season, lost 1-0 to Gillingham at home

 

[GBJ]

My first was against Port Vale on a Tuesday night in either 95 or 96. Mike Marsh scored 2(?) and we won 2-1

For me though, it wasn't about the result, it was that I actually had a great time.
