Yes, i remember i started going to games in 85 with my Dad...

and my older brother. My Dad was paranoid about there being trouble at the football so would always buy tickets for the "safest" games and then they would always be in the upper Riverend.

I can recall my older brother (who had stood in the Barclay a couple of times with his mates) nagging my Dad to get tickets in the Barclay as it was a much better atmosphere and experience but my Dad would have none of it.

I feel i have missed out in a way, i would have loved now to be able to experience what it was like at the footy back then, and if that included a bit of a scrap then so be it.
