Re: How do you start following Barnet?
I started life as a Spurs fan as I was born close to their ground and was lucky to see them twice in their double season.

Re: Tough question from the 60's
Sorry no, my records only narrows it down to one of four Barnet players or an own goal.

I believe Tony Harding scored for Sutton having previously played for Barnet and went on to rejoin latter. Large crowd, match covered...

I will let others know who knew Geoff.

Re: A little light reading for the close season: Roots To Th
I can sympathise, currently I have visited 110 grounds but only 63 are in current use in the football league. The first ground to disappear was the White City where I saw QPR play Bristol Rovers in 1963.
