How long have you been a fan.?

[Magic magpie]

So with Pon growing by the day new members all the time I thought it may be nice to post about how long we have been fans maybe what was our first game we went to just things like that people who got us in to County just something to share with the new members.

I am going to get so much hate for this ... I actually started out as a Mansfield fan. Up until about 5 I was a Mansfield fan because my uncle took me to games as my Dad thought i was too young. But Notts used to do season tickets for free for U16's at the time so went on a period where I was a season ticket holder for 6 years at Notts and just sort of transitioned into a Notts fan. So been a Notts fan since I was 6 and I am now 19 so 13 years now.

nearly 10 years i would say, i started going just before the munto takeover by a few seasons. i remember the broken wheelbarrow being a really horrible place.

I’ve been a fan longer than most of you lot have been alive! I would say around 57 years oh my god I’m so old, that’s depressed me now.

I could tell you some stories if only I could remember them.

I first went when I was around 9 years old, I lived on a street just of Meadow Lane and an older boy who was a friend of my brothers asked me if I wanted to go and see the match at half time, in those days you could get in free at half time. I can’t remember the match or the score but I’ve been supporting them ever since.

 Ever since the circus came to town.

Since I was 5-years-old, yet I class myself a Notts fan from birth due to my mum/grandfather.

There must have been something preventing me from supporting Derby County, even though they are the Championship and have probably better times than us - I still wouldn't switch.

As a kid, I didn't follow football until I was 9 I was more into WWF(WWE now) but when I got involved in football I was a Liverpool fan following my dad's footsteps. It wasn't until I was 12 when I decided to start supporting a local team and followed my grandad in supporting Notts despite having a family full of Forest or a few Liverpool.

Too long it feels, I will be either bold or grey before I'm in my twenties.

[KB1862]

@CliftonMagpie I've already got a grey patch mate, strangely enough came when I first followed Notts

[Magic magpie]

Since I was 10 County was the first team I watched live at meadow lane with my uncle and auntie and from there I never forgot the place or team it held a place with me.

@Magic magpie the first team I ever watched was Wimbledon v Forest, my brother, a forest fan, took me and I took a fancy to Wimbledon which is why I dislike MK Don's with a passion.

Juve is all good my friend who I came to the County game said next time could he wear his juve too I said that’s ok. I did have a soft spot for juve till Ronaldo got there. Rangers are ok mate they got dealt a cruel blow a rangers top is a guilty pleasure maybe

[KB1862]

@Magic magpie mostly like rangers due to the British values they have and the stuff they do for the armed forces.

I agree with that mate .. the armed forces deserve all the respect in the world for it mate and it’s great when a football team dose that 

[KB1862]
