Great stuff Tucks ... I love reading stories like that and how we feel at matches !
I went to Luton with Northern after we were relegated from the top league (1995) and it was the first game of the season . We won 3-1 with a towering header from John Newsome and a cracker of a goal from Neil Adams . A lot of fans were wearing ‘On Loan To Division One ‘ tee shirts . Not a good idea as it prove to be 9 long years before we went up again . It was a fabulous atmosphere in the away end with flags streamers and thousands of balloons which the Luton stewards started to pop , so we chanted ‘ just because you’re losing ‘ at them ! Happy days and a great day out !
It was live on Anglia tv.
I have been there a few times and recall the song ' sing up the beach huts ' to the few fans in that crappy stand to length of pitch.
