Hello everyone.
Ive followed county heaven closely since day one & rarely go a day without looking (tbh I never go a day without looking but don't wanna sound too sad!!). Pretty much got county in my blood as my dad was born & brought up on Moscow road, which is the road directly behind the pop side over the water. My grandma remained living there, so as a kid, the back view of the pop side stand was a regular Sunday treat! (I'm not bragging, honest!).
My first game was against Gillingham sometime in the seventies, though can't really remember it. I became aware I was a county fan a decade or so later, when my ears pricked up on hearing a news reader on the telly saying that county had won 5 nil at home to Hartlepool ( a Friday night obviously). Brett Angell days! I've been hooked ever since.
I live in the Yorkshire dales & several months ago a pretty big coincidence occurred. On the weekend of the Harrogate match I had looked on CH & noticed hatter in macc saying he was stopping off at his in-laws in Yorkshire. Couple of days later whilst chatting to my direct neighbour opposite, football was mentioned & a few moments later it clicked!! Hatter in macc was (is) her son in-law!! Small world & all that. We have since met up & I have to say, it's great to have a mate who's a county fan!
Anyway it's good to be on board. Cheers
