Your First Visit To The Old Lady

[Cork Evertonian]

Hi i have the hotel and plane tickets booked already in anticipation!I've been hearing these worrying stories about Everton leaving Goodison so i decided i need to take in a match at the old lady because it won't be the same watching Everton somewhere else.Im planning to see the Sunderland match on May 9th and im torn between sitting in the Park End or the Lower Gwladys Street End.But an occassion like this is a special day for any blue to be remembered forever.So i'd like to hear other Everton supporters memorys of their first trip to Goodison.Did we win?Did we lose?Was it a great match?How early did you get up that morning in anticipation of the day ahead?Im interested in hearing any detail about every Everton supporters special day big or small.

I wouldn't worry too much mate. You'll be able to get a fair few matches in before it happens.

Lower Bullens, early 1970s (I reckon) against Huddersfield Town. About all I remember was that Howard Kendall was playing and we scored a late equaliser.

My 16th birthday. vs Arsenal when Rooney scored. Was alright I guess.

That was my first as well.

Was behind a pillar and missed Rooney's goal.

Typical

FA Youth Cup Final 1983, think we lost against Norwich City.... loved it all the same. Every game creates new memories, you'll love it. Don't go in the Park End, though, it might not have obstructed views but it doesn't have the same feeling as the rest of the ground.

August 1962. Hot day, great atmosphere, we won. Can remember clouds of tobacco smoke drifting over the crowd.
