Season no 53 for me, hoping I'll get to 70 seasons, doubt I'll ever see us win anything though.

Big Grin  Any other ode long timers on here ?

Train from Brierly Hill? Where was the station? only trains I remember seeing were the ones at Round Oak - Cycled from Rowley to Smethwick along the canal the other day some interesting sights and hopefully visit the old pumping station over the road from the blue gates nest season. be 50 years for me next season, still waiting to see us win anything of note, semper te fallant.

Station Road/Fenton Street so not the town itself.  Hard to see where it was now.

Still there Hudds, freight only now tho , the station before Round Oak.

Will be 62 seasons for me. If I can summon up enough enthusiasm to go at all. 
First game v. Chelsea in 1959. Lost 3-1. Alec Jackson was the first goalscorer I cheered.
