When I was about 12 or 13 used to go to all the junior and reserve matches as well at the OSG often meeting up with Vinny Grimes who was in my class at school. Remember when Keegan played for the juniors Vinny immediately called him “first team material” which became his nickname until it happened in 68. Best memory in the league cup. We lost 6-1 and only Keegan and Terry Heath did not look out of place against the Gunners who were all bigger, fitter and faster. It was the fullest I ever saw the OSG though – about 18,000 I think were there.
Better than getting our arses kicked by poor League 2 sides.
