“In the early 1960s, my father frequently took me and my brother to the Allotments, but – increasingly bored by the fare on offer there – we decided to visit KR in 1968. We were immediately captivated by Bruce Rioch, Alan Slough and co., and became regular Town supporters. Since moving to Germany in 1981, I have always (except for one “Buckle” year) managed to get back to watch the Town at least once per season.

“Highlights of supporting LTFC:

• the greatest goal ever scored, anywhere, by Graham French
• outstanding players such as Bruce Rioch, Malcolm Macdonald, Ricky Hill, Brian Stein, Mick Harford … 
• 1988 League Cup win v Arsenal
• 2009 JPT victory at Wembley
• 2023 promotion final at Wembley
• finally seeing LTFC in the Premier League at Spurs, 2024.”
