And a ball that almost broke your foot when wet and,a lace that left a scar like you,d had stitches when you headed the ball. Bet you guys haven,t heard that one before ! :roll: Been there done that etc etc :roll:

The first pair of boots that I had you soaked them in the bath and then applied a liberal covering of 'Chelsea dubbin'. Mind you in those days nobody had metarsal injuries to their feet. ;)

Because our boots were as it says...boots...which covered and protected your ankles with laces about 2 metres long that you wound round and round your boots and you played in mud (not grass ) from about November...Happy days !! :lol:

Yeah. Two footed tackles from behind, a good old shoulder barge just as the goalie was catching the ball but no diving for penalties. You had to do something really serious to get your name taken as well.

For this game it is £4 Adults/£2 Conc (Double Header - U18, and Senior side).
All other Pre-Seasons are £3 Adult/£1.50 Conc.
Or if you meant Season Tickets for the main Season:
See here for all prices -
http://www.afcdiamondsshop.com/tickets.asp
Any purchases can be loaded onto your Membership card as required.
Watch out for fixture posters around. We should also have some at the game to take away, to put up in your area if you haven't see one. We do have a Poster Team that will be regularly putting posters up around the area as we refresh them throughout the Season, and if you can help on that let us know, and someone will be in touch.
