TRUE BLUE STORIES

Andy Holgate

My Dad and Uncle took me to my first game when I was 7. It was a couple of days after my birthday and it was going to be a treat for me. I got up that morning and I was so excited and I couldn't wait to get there. We went early so I could buy a shirt from the souvenir shop and then I went in. Walking down the tunnel in the Kippax I could see millions (if only!) of faces in the Main Stand and to a seven-year old it was unbelievable. I don't know who we were playing or what the score was but I think we won. I'm still a fan 13 years later although I can't get there due to living in Swindon and being a poor student. But this year will be great because I can see them in Swindon and Oxford.

Stay blue
