What was your very first Forest game?

For me it was Wolves in the FA cup, I sat in Trent End Upper with my father but I cannot remember the score, the date or the year :D I must have been about 7 though I suspect.

I will have to ask him later. :)

Simod Cup Final vs Everton in 1989. We won 4-3 and Gary Parker scored one of the best goals i've ever seen 8)

2-1 victory over Spurs, or Tottenham - I don't remember - at the City Ground in Cloughie's retirement season.

1983 (I think) against Brighton. We won 4-0 or 4-1, I remember Viv Anderson smashing one into the roof of the net.

The abiding memories though are of sitting behind a girder on the wall at the back of the old Trent End sharing a bag of Lun Jeelers with my brother - that and a bloke called Steve Foster's (Brighton centre half) headband.

I was about 7 at the time. I do miss the old Trent End :)

I can't remember! :(

My first City Ground experience was the Japan 2 - 2 Sweden extravaganza. I really wish that first memory was of a Forest game.

As a young kid. !965-66 season - Sunderland at the CG. 0-0. Not a good start. Still - the next season we were 2nd to Manure and lost in the FA cup semis (to spurs). We had a good team and regularly had 40,000 plus. We can do it again!!!!!
 
My first ever game was a friendly against a side called Torpedo Moscow in the mid 80's. My first league game was a 1-1 draw against Liverpool in 1985. Philip Starbuck scored our goal and that big nosed git Ian Rush equalized in the 88th minute.

24.08.1985 v Southampton at home we won 2-1 :)

Got my first season ticket the season after. I used to love sitting in the Junior Reds section. I won the raffle thing about 3 times aswell! I think one of the prizes was a statue of Des Walker with an oversized head!

We must have been sat in the junior reds at the same time. I never won that bloody raffle!

ipswich (a) 1983 ? we won 3-1 & peter davenport hit a hat-trick and it may have been steve hodge's debut , i think ipswich needed to win and liverpool had to lose at home to spurs for ipswich to pip them for the title but liverpool won anyway , i may be wrong as it was 26 years ago and i was only 13. :)

Sheffield United at home, April 1st 1990. My Dad's friend from work had two season tickets and couldn't go so my Dad borrowed them and we went.

Soccerbase says we won 2-0 but I can't remember the scorers and can't seem to find out anywhere. I do remember that Nigel Clough missed a penalty though.

Can you tell it's summer?!
