Your first North London Derby

This Is The Daybreak · Tue Apr 22, 2008 3:15 pm

When was it and what were your memories of it.

Mine was in April 1995 at Highbury, We scored first through Ian Wright only for the scum to hit back immediatly afterwards through a Klinsman header.

Sat on the North Bank and rememeber when we scored in the second half people falling into the rows in front, hugging strangers etc. and then when they scored the atmosphere turning nasty when a group of the scum fans sitting in the North Bank were ejected.

It was only when I started going to games that I really discovered how much I hate them and their supporters. My first one at White Hart Lane wasn't untill 2001 during Campbells return...was thrown in at the deep end so to speak.

my first ever north london derby was only last season

cc, we won 3-1 therfore 5-3 on agg. atmosphere was more or less top notch, mainly cos it was a night game and we done the local scum over with our teenagers

This season 1-1

Berbatov was the best player on the pitch and Theo scored a goal that looked good. Back at home, everyone saw that it was a flukey one

Flukey ones are the best.

1990 at Highbury, 1-0 to the Arsenal, with Mr Arsenal scoring the winner. My memory may be cloudy but I'm sure it was a side ways on volley from a corner at the North Bank.

I was there too, and in the Spurs end! Pretty painful. The following season, I think in the League Cup, we played at WHL and won 3-2 - and I was in the Spurs end again - even more painful!

Can't remember when my first NL derby was - I'll have to think about that one.

This was my first derby game too. I was in the North Bank as well and the scum had the whole of the Clock End if I remember correctly. After Wrighty scored a penalty down their end some tosser threw a whisky bottle at him which made the atmosphere even more hostile.

when we won the double 2001-02. 2 penalties right at the end, oine for them, and one for us.
best was the year after though, as a 9 year old outside the t-bird, some mouthy **** muppet was giving it all the biggun, and was soon dealt with. then a load of older boys hearing that it was going off on holloway road, and about 30 of them just leaving the pub to go and have a peek
