You have to remember a lot of the older fans who watched us in those days had seen us rise from the 3rd division in the 1930s to the top flight and watched us fall again. The relegation in 1973 was the final straw for many of the good old boys back then, The period between 73 to 75 under Mike...

Hi Banana, just checked TAPs it stands at 8804, not too bad i suppose for an old bloke hobbling around getting to the games!

I have never forgiven Grimsby for selling us that useless article Murray Jones, one our worst ever signings, especially as they went and bought Clive Mendonca for half the money we paid them for Jones. The last time i went to Blundell Park was the 1-0 defeat when Rankin scored and the ref blew...

I went to every game in our championship seasons until covid restrictions came along, i have missed 2 aways this year, and 3 games last season through illness and just getting a bit old and past it! i will keep going and supporting the Bees home and away as long as can, with the team we have now...

Hi Banana, atm 8114 Tap points, so should be ok to buy tickets for our European tour next season!

7844 TAP points for me, has taken some doing to get to that total!

6709 Tap points for me, looking forward to next season, and really hoping we get to do awaydays again!

RIP Matthew, he was a smashing bloke who always had a smile on his face and loved chatting away in the Braemar rd forecourt about anything Bees related. The awaydays in John Allens Pony Express van going up and down motorways with Matt will always be remembered by me, and everyone else who came...

Its a long way to go for a fishcake!

It was the best away day last season by country mile. Prediction, settle for a 1-1 draw and get our season started. Looking forward to this one.

Nice article from you IBAE, enjoyed some of your memories, and was saddened by others, good piece and a good idea by the programme.
