What was the first Brewers match you attended, and what do you remember about it?
Late 60's, going with my mate and his dad. Sorry too long ago to remember what went on
Which Brewers match left you feeling most elated?
1984, beating Aldershot 2-0 away, in the FA cup.What a day. Travelled down to Aldershot on a bus with 50 vocal, well oiled lads.Won the game thanks to Stuart Mell, and got back to Burton and all 50 of us ended up in the old 76 club in High street.What a day
And which left you feeling most disappointed?
The defeat by Kiddy at the Trophy replay 1987.Proud of the lads,but it was devastating. Also last seasons defeat at home to Folkestone on a rainy Tuesday night. That was the game where we handed the Championship to Margate
What's the best away ground you've visited, and why?
Forest Green,a number of years ago, great fans and a good clubhouse
And the worst?
Moor Green with their wind-up floodlights and their 1 girl serving 200 thirsty brewers fans. Margate, god only knows how they got Conference graded. Boston,Brewers fans were ripped off at the turnstiles and had to suffer 1950's conditions and a portaloo to piss in, not good
Do you support any other team apart from the Brewers?
Nope
Why do you support Burton Albion?
Passion,Commitment,Quality Footy, and its all here in Burton

Would'nt waste valuable time on disliking any other team totally
What is your opinion on Derby County Football Club?
I don't care
If you could choose three ways the club could be improved, what would they be?
1 - Turn the Brook end into a Gordon Bray style terrace and possibly call it the "Simon Redfern Stand"
2 - Get the players and Cloughie to become more interactive on the Brewersnet,so maybe they could answer questions from the fans in the chat room or on the forum
3 - Use the Brewers Tavern for more fund raising activities
What single improvement would you make to Eton Park?
Has to be the improvement of the Brook end
What music should the Brewers run out to on matchday?
A bit cheesey but "Special Brew" from Bad Manners from the early 80's
What colour should the away strip be?
OK as it is

stands behind the goal we are scoring into!
goes to all home and away games
What was the first Brewers match you attended, and what do you remember about it?
Leicester at the baseball ground, when the leicester supporters were throwing seats onto their own supporters! First game at eton park was in the same season against somebody like Redditch who we beat 6-1 ? (could be wrong on the last bit)
Which Brewers match left you feeling most elated?
A lot have, Boston (re:pub team), Sudbury away winning the cup
And which left you feeling most disappointed?
Folkestone is high on the list, we should have won it and then we would have finished level on points with margate
What's the best away ground you've visited, and why?
St. Marys! look below
And the worst?
Corby (whats wrong with those scots in Corby) and any with a running track apart from Bradford P.A. who are a nice club
Do you support any other team apart from the Brewers?
Yes, southampton. started supporting them in the mid seventies just before they won the fa cup. Why? mainly because of Mick Channon

Local team. nice atmosphere
Which team do you dislike most?
Any that beat us (for a week or two)
What is your opinion on Derby County Football Club?

Big covered terrace at carpark end

Where, realistically, would you like to see the Brewers in five years time?
Top three conference, going for one of the two promotion places into the league
Any further comments?
I have not missed a game (home or away) since '95. I do sing sometimes and others would sing more if people were not swearing at and having a go at people for not singing. singing is good and so is just turning out and supporting the team through the thick and thin, so lets all cheer the lads on as they make history for the club

Come on you Brewers !!!

goes to all home games, some away
What was the first Brewers match you attended, and what do you remember about it?
Brewers v Chorley, FA Trophy 1989. Brewers won 4-1 in front of over 1800 supporters. The thing I remember is that I used to go to Brewers games by catching a bus from Measham, and the last bus back was from the town centre at quarter past five so I had to sprint all the way back to catch it. The people on the bus who had to sit next to a sweaty football fan must have been chuffed !
Which Brewers match left you feeling most elated?
The 4-0 victory over Gresley at the Moat Ground at Christmas 1993. The pitch was like an ice rink but the Brewers adapted and slaughtered them. Also the FA Cup game at Bradford, the boys did us proud
And which left you feeling most disappointed?
Probably the Bradford game because we came so close. Also not beating Kidderminster away FA Cup, we had the few chances and did not score
What's the best away ground you've visited, and why?
Rushden & Diamonds, a glimpse of what every non-league team is aiming for
And the worst?
The seats at Hucknall take some beating for sheer uncomfortableness, however the worst overall ground must be Eastwood Hanley who we played in the FA Cup a few years ago. A field in the middle of a housing estate, which isn't even in Hanley. I went to the old ground to find it had been knocked down, then had to dash to the other side of Stoke to get to the new ground by which time I had missed the only goal in a 1-0 Brewers win
Do you support any other team apart from the Brewers?
Not any more, I used to be a Leicester City season ticket holder. The sheer greed and lack of consideration for fans drove me away
Why do you support Burton Albion?
Good football, relaxed atmosphere, good facilities
Which team do you dislike most?
Blyth Spartans
What is your opinion on Derby County Football Club?
I don't care
If you could choose three ways the club could be improved, what would they be?
1 - More information from the club about ticketing, especially if we go up as we will have more big games
2 - Include B'ham Senior Cup and league cup games on season tickets to increase interest. Brewers should not be playing in front of 200 fans
3 - Sort out the turnstiles so you don't have everyone queuing at 2 turnstiles whilst the others are empty
What single improvement would you make to Eton Park?
Someone to clean the toilets
What music should the Brewers run out to on matchday?
'We're gonna win' - Bryan Adams
What colour should the away strip be?
White, black, black
If you won the National Lottery jackpot, would you donate some of it to the Brewers??
Yes, but only if they let me have a space in the car park
Your all time Brewers XI

Goodwin
Davies, Wassall, Simms, Blount
S. Redfern, Stride, Clough
Cotterill, Gayle, C. Moore

A very unbalanced team admittedly and the suprise inclusion of Moore. His strike record is nearly a goal every 2 games which is pretty good and I think he deserved an inclusion due to his sheer hard work and the way that he has improved in the last 2 seasons
Where, realistically, would you like to see the Brewers in five years time?
In the Third Division
Any further comments?
Up the Brewers !!!!
