How many home games do you think you've seen? I've included CCup games, YC and Regal.

Started properly in 1989, I've averaged it out at 20 games a season but you can use any formula you want. I have not always been a season ticket holder due to other commitments so I can't use that as a guide but you can. I have not included away games, I don't think I'd know where to start on that.

So for me, it's 600 games of which I can only recall a few dozen with any clarity.

Compared to some I'm a novice and I also know a few who do remember almost every game in astonishing detail.

Over to you, I expect some whopping numbers from some.

The older fans could be much higher as there were way more games played in the 60s and early 70s.
I need to go and calculate mine. I've been watching since mid 70s as a small kid and regularly from 78/79

It’s got to be an approx for most, you’d seriously have issues in your life if you could remember them all. You must be over a 1000 if as you say you take into account how many games were played in a season up until SL.

I started watching Trinity in 1956. As PT stated in those days and through to the 70s they played more matches than today. If you say an average of 17 home league games per season (allowing one per season off for hols) that would be 64x16 = 1024: say average of 3 home cup games per season that would be 64x3 = 192; Total approx. 1216. Not a very scientific exercise, but there you go.

I initially started going to 'A' team matches in the mid 70's as my mate's dad used to take us down to Belle Vue on a Saturday afternoon and we used to volunteer to operate the scoreboard (the massive old wooden structure that used to be at the back of the north terrace in those days) and then one day we got asked if we wanted to man the scoreboard for the first team as the old guy that had been doing it for years wanted to pack in AND we were offered free admission for doing so!! Unsurprisingly we said yes, so that was probably when I started watching the first team in earnest, so I'm guessing that I will be in a similar position to PT ??

I've a friend who started a journal when he was 8 in a school exercise book detailing all the football matches he attended from Internationals through to non-league reserve games. He can probably remember them all. His wife wobbled before the wedding when she found out about what had become a series of books

Started watching at the same time as you.
20 games a season, without away games sounds like a hell of a loth though ?

I go to all home games and most away games and would average that at 22/23 games a season.
Mind you, I stopped going for 2/3 seasons when we got "relegated" to allow SL to start, only coming back after a pal suggested watching Trinity v Bradford in the cup QF I was totally hacked of with what happened to get summer rugby of the ground and many of those lads have never watched another game so, somewhere around 650 games, plus some reserve game, academy matches and loads of internationals.

Watching Trinity is a bit like how Ozzy Osborne described his alcohol addiction, 1 game is too many and 650 is not anywhere near enough, like alcohol, Trinity gets in your blood

About 420-440 from 1997/1998 for me.

You could be right, it’s just an average. I think the top division has had as many as 16 teams at some point. If you chuck in CCup games, YC and RT games and serious pre season games and even the odd play off it might scrape that number but I’ll gladly downgrade. It still seems like I’ve seen them thousands of times

My first games were in 1967 at BV my first cup match was Barrow away in 1968 the season we got to the water splash final. I have mainly travelled home and away since then other than when I was away at Sea or working overseas.

Good topic...i started in 88-89 but attend the odd game before but cant remember.i revkon for 20 years i attended 99% games home and away and prob bout 80% other times i first went with my dad but now with my 2 sons who themselves are grown up ish .never thought about how many games id been to but averaging at say 25 games a year for 32 years it adds up.i also attended acadamy and scolaship games.

As for memories theres few bits n bats that i remember like mason down the wing in the first season watching us rack up a cricket score v runcorn i think at belle vue with conway scoring points a plenty the drive over to chorley in the snow and anothwr record score the bradford try which was 3ft short.but the one that comes to is the pearman season when the money shortfalls first came to light and we played saints i remember been stood there wstching lads warm up thinking wow gonna get smashed as alotof our so called stars wasnt plsying..but we won easily

You aren't one of the guys who was always putting the wrong scores up to much laughing and jeering from the crowd every time you got it wrong are you FIL
