Many years ago 1969 to be precise, I had a girlfriend. She was a regular supporter of Lincoln City. I did not hold that against her, or did she me for being a Boston supporter. As a surprise she knitted me an eight foot long Black and amber scarf for Christmas. I met her a couple of years ago and mentioned the scarf, she denied knitting it, perhaps something to do with her now being a Lincoln season ticket holder.
I shall be bringing it out for a rare outing on Sunday. The amber is a bit faded and the scarf is a little out of shape, due to some Kettering fan deciding that it would be fun to try and strangle me with it.
It's been to some very memorable games over the 50 years. Also some I would like to forget. It has been worn according to fashion of the time, around the head, neck, wrist and even the waist.
So, this Sunday I shall be wearing it ( to keep warm ) and may it be lucky.
