My first game that I remember was in 1976, a 2-1 home win against Southend on the last day of the season that saw us avoid the drop into Div 4 by the skin of our teeth!!!! I had been to a few games before then, with the first being in 1974 but don't remember who we played.
My first trip to The Hawthorns was in September 1984, our first season in the top flight since I started watching Wednesday. We had a good start to that season and were sitting in 4th place after 5 games. We came away with a 2-2 draw, with Gary Shelton and Imre Varadi getting our goals. Don't remember a ton about the day, that season for me was full of firsts and having waited so long to get back to the top flight it was all a bit of a blur aside from a few totally memorable events such as winning at Anfield and Old Trafford and of course the first home game with a 3-1 win over Forest.
