Been on here for just over 5 years after spending a year or so lurking. If you see a post of mine after 11pm at weekends then you can be sure l've broken rule one of forum posting - DO NOT POST WHEN INTOXICATED - so apologies to anyone l have/will offend after that time

I'm Simon, l'm 37 and l grew up in Clitheroe but only really started going on Ewood in the mid to late 80's mainly due to my parents not having any interest in football and l was too young to go on my own. I now live in Mill Hill and so l am close enough and old enough to go by myself, although l have my 11 year old son to look after me on match days

I can be found in the Darwen End singing section on match days trying to get my son to experience as close to the atmosphere l grew up with, stood in the middle at the right at the back of the old BBE. Those days are long gone unfortunately. "You are my sunshine....."

EDIT: Whatever happened to the lasses who stood on the BBE with knitted brfc jumpers in the 80's, l remember they had 3 on the back and were massive Chris Sulley fans. Funny the things you remember.
