I first visited Twickenham as a boy of 12 and I'd never seen a ground with three huge stands before. That was in 1936 - of course it's changed a bit since then. I've always been struck by the car park picnics there and I remember, once, someone asking the person next door to turn their engine off. "Certainly," he said, "I was just warming the Claret!" I've got a great respect for Twickenham. It's a magnificent ground and I have some wonderful memories of the place. The crowd, generally speaking, is sporting and fair and that's important nowadays because they do sometimes try and influence the kickers. I was there in 1938 when Scotland won 28-16, but they haven't done too well since! |
