1. Aberdeen in 1973

2. Inverness from 1974

3. Thistle from about 1979, 1980 - can't remember what the first game was, as I just used to squeeze through a hole in a fence from Broadstone Park  :blush:

4. Glasgow since 1991

 

Must have been some helluva sized hole (and fence!) to squeeze through from Broadstone Park! That bit of road's Broadstone Avenue....pedantic? Me?!

 

 

I'll see your pedantry and raise it.  :nanananana:  The fence in question was at the bottom of my neighbour's garden. Broadstone Avenue was only half the length of Broadstone Park; after that the back gardens in Broadstone Park ran right up to one side of the ground. My parents' garden actually represented the dead end at the end of Broadstone Avenue, but our garden fence backed onto the stand, so I had to squeeze through my mate's fence two doors up.

Born in Inverness, under a toadstool as I understand it. Once I had climbed on top of the toadstool and looked around I never looked back and wide horizons beckone.

Childhood memories from Inverness until age 18

Started watching the Caley at Telford Street about the year 1952 -1954. Watched the stand burn down at Telford Street from my back bedroom window one afternoon wondering what on earth was going on.

Lived in England, Germany - R.A.F., London (1 year), back to Scotland then off to Canada where I have been for the past 39 years or so. Found out about the progress of Caley from Mantis and he is to blame for everything that has followed.

1 Where were you born? Raigmore, Inverness

2.Where did you spend your childhood? Inverness

3 When did you start following football in Inverness? My Aunt's house overlooked Clach Park so i use to sit in her bedroom watching Clach when I was 9 or 10. I wasn't a Clach supporter but just too young to go to games. Moved to Dalneigh in 80 or 81 when I was 12/13 and was invited to a Caledonian game by a girl I fancied...I ended up falling for Caley instead. Followed Caley all the way to today!

4 What is you current location? Edinburgh.

1. Ontario, Canada

2. Johnstone, Renfrewshire mainly

3. Really when ICT formed as I was living here. Mild supporter (more quite liked really) of Clach just before it. I liked the area and the whole new team aspect made a difference. Being right there at the start (which I immediately had to decide on as my old team, St Mirren, were first opponents -thought I would get a few years to decide loyalty).

4. Nottingham (via more places than I could count) at the moment but every chance that will change soon (rarely stay in one place for long). Return to Scotland at the end of summer a strong possibility but who knows?

3 When did you start following football in Inverness? Mid 80's, my big brother got a couple of games on trial at Telford St but turned out to be far more skilled at drinking & smoking - Peter Corbett let me & my dad into the dressing room at half time for a cup of tea!

4 What is you current location? Manchester
