| What was the first Brewers match you attended, and what do you
remember about it? |
| The
first brewers match i attended was with my dad when i was about ten years
old and we came to see derby county play in i think Redferns testimonial.
I just remeber feeling very excited about the whole occasion. Unfortunatly
i recall the brewers losing but it didnt matter i was hooked and i bought
my first of many season tickets the next year! |
| Which Brewers match left you feeling most elated? |
| It
was this years home match against Chester City. When we totally pounded another
supoosedly Conference team. We made them look like a pub team at times and
we were brilliant! |
| And which left you feeling most disappointed? |
| The
last seasons final game to margate. we may have own the game 3-0 but having
to hear around 1000 margate fans (more like 200 - Ed) shout "Your
shit and you know you are!" was heart shattering! |
| What's the best away ground you've visited, and why? |
| Kiddy.
It was a good ground with a very good main stand. What adds to it is that
the brewers secrued their famous FA cup replay with a 0-0 draw there |
| And the worst? |
| Matlock's
causeway lane, its just a shithole to be honest! |
| Do you support any other team apart from the
Brewers? |
| Newcastle
because my family roots are form there and they play very attractive flowing
football rather like the brewers! |
| Why do you support Burton Albion? |
| They
play exciting fats paced football. The players in my opinion are some of
the best in the non-league! |
| Which team do you dislike most? |
| Bishop
Auckland or Whitby; their both a set of dirty twats! |
| 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
- Add another seating stand |
| 2
- Get rid off wasters like James Wall |
| 3
- Buy a youthful replacement for the ever so sadly ageing Nigel "The Man"
Clough |
| What single improvement would you make to Eton
Park? |
| Naked
Cheerleaders |
| What music should the Brewers run out to on
matchday? |
| 'We
are the champions!' (rather apt i think!) |
| What colour should the away strip be? |
| Black |
| If you won the National Lottery jackpot, would you donate
some of it to the Brewers?? |
| yeah
at least a quarter |
| Your all time Brewers XI |
Goodwin
Talbot, Wassall, Henshaw, Blount
Webster, Anderson, Stride, Glasser
Farrell, Moore |
Keeper:
All time best albion keeper who is more reliable than Dukey!
Defence: Talbot: good attacking full back, Wassall: Brilliantly strong in
air and on ground an all round rock! Henshaw: brilliant utility man and Blount:
solid as a rock!
Midfield: Webster:
Touch of the gods and beauty of a left foot, Anderson: A striker whose pace
is wasted upfront and i think is more of a Ryan Giggs winger than a Michael
Owen! Stride: Just a rock in the team. Glasser: The work man!
Forwards: Farrell:
big strong target man, Moore: the most improved player in the team who battles
and imporves with every game and also has a very fiery competitive temperament
which is good |
| Where, realistically, would you like to see the Brewers in five
years time? |
| Division
three with a new modern ground! |
| Any further comments? |

|
| What was the first Brewers match you attended, and what do you
remember about it? |
| Lord
knows when - about 1954 - against Nuneaton at Wellington Street. We won 4-2.
I think and they played in Blue and White stripes, and I stood on the
'popside'. |
| Which Brewers match left you feeling most elated? |
| Beating
Halifax 1-0 in the cup replay in 1957. Miserable Wednesday afternoon, but
what a result and us in the 3rd round! |
| And which left you feeling most disappointed? |
| Salisbury
away last season. I knew we weren't quite good enough to win the league
then |
| What's the best away ground you've visited, and why? |
| Gainsborough.
It's a credit to a small club and very friendly |
| And the worst? |
| Clevedon.
Bleak, uninspiring, sandy pitch, no atmosphere |
| Do you support any other team apart from the
Brewers? |
| Wolves
(what is it with me and perpetual under achievers) I went with Dad to see
them against Barcelona and Honved in the 1950's under this new idea
'floodlights'. 50 odd thousand, Puskas, Hideguti from the '53 Magic Magyars'and
I've followed them ever since |
| Why do you support Burton Albion? |
| Because
they are my local team and I luv 'em |
| Which team do you dislike most? |

them) lose |

Club? |

| What single improvement would you make to Eton
Park? |
| Improved
terracing and crush barriers at car park end |
| What music should the Brewers run out to on

& white (a la Blackpool) |
| If you won the National Lottery jackpot, would you donate

Green
Blount, Wassall, McAdam
Clough, Glasser, Corrigan, Groves
Round, Barker, Whitehouse |
| I
could pick at least two sides of almost equal merit and it's hard to compare
people from different eras, but these excited me most on their day |
| Where, realistically, would you like to see the Brewers in five
years time? |
| In
Division Three |
| Any further comments? |
| I
still get a buzz at Eton Park and despite what we sometimes write I think
Brewers fans are loyal and generally friendly (oh yes and quiet). |
|
| Do you support any other team apart from the
Brewers? |
| Obolon
and Dynamo Kyiv, they are my local teams now |
| Why do you support Burton Albion? |
| my
family live near Burton |

| Bishop
Aukland and Shktar Donetsk |
| What is your opinion on Derby County Football
Club? |

dislike them a lot |
| If you could choose three ways the club could be improved, what
would they be? |
| 1
- change the stewards |
| 2
- don't bring any more of Nige's old mates to Eton Park |
| 3
- Improve the programme, it was good last season, but from what I have seen
full of mistakes this |
| What single improvement would you make to Eton
Park? |
| just
try to make it bigger especially for the conference |
| What music should the Brewers run out to on
matchday? |
| I don't

| What colour should the away strip be? |
| I
quite like the blue, especially now everybody has forgotten about
Margate |

|
| What was the first Brewers match you attended, and what do you
remember about it? |
| Trophy
quarter final replay v Maidstone in 1987. One nil win. Goal scored by Dave
Redfern |
| Which Brewers match left you feeling most elated? |
| Other
than this season two spring to mind both about 10 years ago.
1. v Dartford
at home. Won 3-2. Two Mark Whitehouse goals and a twice taken 90th minute
penalty by Ian Straw.
2. Alvechurch
away. 3-1 down at half time, we won 4-3 thanks to a whitehouse hat-trick
including an injury time penalty which precipitated a pitch invasion by Brewers
fans! |
| And which left you feeling most disappointed? |
| 4-0
away defeat against Yeovil in the trophy semi final. We just didn't do ourselves
justice |
| What's the best away ground you've visited, and why? |
| It's
about 7 years since I went to an away game so I can't really remember. Wembley
was nice though! |
| And the worst? |
| I
used to hate Corby. An athletics stadium with one stand |
| Do you support any other team apart from the
Brewers? |
| Not
really. I look out for Derby results out of local interest |

| No
particular reason, just because theyre the local club I suppose |

| Arsenal
of the late 80's early 90's |

Club? |
| I
like to see them do well |
| If you could choose three ways the club could be improved, what
would they be? |

has very little scope for development |
