Michael Starr 519 Posted May 16, 2009 So next season will be possibly the weirdest of all for me, I spent 7 years of my teenage years around the Yeovil area which means I have a bit of a soft spot for Yeovil Town FC. Sure enough I was a season ticket holder there during their dark non-league ''pennies in buckets to survive'' days, and back then I never once thought Norwich City, my first passion, would ever visit in a league game capacity.Boy how the times have changed... the one thing I am looking forward to next year is a return to Huish Park... in yellow and green, and standing in the away end for the first time ever.Does anybody else have any "second teams" in League One?

I haven''t been to the "new" Huish yet but visited the old one on several occassions, usaually the local derbies with Weymouth and I did see Norwich play there in a testamonial match for two Yeovil players. Thanks to the internet I have made contact with old friends and colleagues recently and a kind fixture draw will find me re-visiting some of them. That''s the only small glimmer of joy I can think of after our appalling demise, but knowing us, the fixture will be a Tuesday night in January. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
