Your First Ever Game At The Vetch !?

March 1978.
Tosh's first game as our player/manager V Watford and a 3-3 draw.
Old man was a seasie holder on the Kop at Anfield and wanted to see how Tosh performed as a manager.
Kept going after that with school mates.
Now 61 and taking grandbabies to the Morfa. Getting old!!
Daughter and son were dragged up on the N.B.
 
Thanks for the info ,
Did Stuart Pierce play in the first game ,
My brother and mate drove up to Wrexham for a Welsh Cup game which never kicked off due to a waterlogged pitch .
Pearce had left Wealdstone a few years earlier. Not sure if they had any household names at the time, maybe Andy Wallace who went on to play for Yeovil later on.
