So who's NEVER missed a game, home or away in their lifetime?

The "I've never missed a game" supporter, must feel quite gutted at having to miss out now.
Is there actually anyone out there who has never missed a match since they went to their first?

In the Carrier Bag Firm orbit, the first remarkable milestone I can remember was Therealfurphy attending his 1,000th consecutive game without missing one.

I’m miles off that. Jowitt must be very close and I’m sure there will be others

And, while I'm Bigging Up the Carrier Bag Firm. One of them who does the friendlies & the U23s & the U18s & The Futures has "routinely" attended over 100 SUFC XI games a season.

I can see this being a long thread.

I am gutted, 36 years without missing, only 2 games in 38 (dad booked holidays in Aug 82 & 83)!!

I have never kept a record, but it must be up around 2,000 games, in all tournaments, so when the morale of the nation is cited as a reason for the restart, my morale is fucking rock bottom!
There are others with far longer runs, so they must be even worse than me!

Cheers mate, ironic the run ends during the greatest top flight season in my time as a Blade!
