Tomorrow - our first, and best, visit to Wembley to win the FA Trophy against Leatherhead. Still my favourite Alty day of all time despite so many blinders since. Can't believe its 40 years though...

Totally agree here Paul. I remember the day vividly. Great day. As you say, wow 40 years ago...
Best Alty team ever in my opinion that I have witnessed with Johnson, Rogers and King netting the goals.

totally agree,a fantastic day out

Definitely one of the highlights of my 62 years supporting the club.

A wonderful day saw people there I hadn't seen for years also. I think it was the first time I paid £! a pint sign of things to come

Best day ever.
I think PP taking us to the new Wembley would just about equal it....assuming we won.
We KNEW we were going to win V Leatherhead....
Big Bill and Brian with my dad and six kids in a ford Granada estate racing down the M1...us kids waving out the back windown at lorry drivers etc.....
We score and my dad jumps up and his 100s of credit cards shower out of his pocket over the seats in front.....we'd just collected them all up when we score again..... ;D ;D ;D
A very very special day.....I hope we get to the new Wembley soon so the new generation who missed this will experience it.

Anyone remember Chris Kelly the mouth from Leatherhead. Bragged how they were going to beat us before the game, and he did nowt during the game.

Hit the bar with a powerful shot just before half time. I can still hear the CLANG! sound of the metal crossbar echoing around the empty part of the stadium 😁
