Went to Poznan and remember passing a couple of lines of armed/riot cops coming out of the ground, then turning a corner and having to find way back to the city centre. Stadium was new and i remember there were lumps of discarded builders rubble etc outside and it wasnt very well lit. An interesting trip all round but thankfully didnt come to any harm.We lived to tell the tale by the skin of our teeth.
Cost us about £50 in whisky though !
Surely that's ‘hibs’
I was in the United Road paddock with a mate who was a red and his Dad so wasn't as fearful as PB but it was definitely a hostile atmosphere all game. Having said that as a Salford lad was always wary that some school mate would spot me and point out I was a blueSaw some scary stuff at places like Leeds, Stoke, the North East but that was one game I was convinced I wasn't going to get out of alive.

Don’t fuck with Mrs doots.Decent comeback having lost against the Mrs 6hrs earlier.
Ha, marvellous again M22,just for the record, I was single whilst in Seville.
That's right there was a hurling game round the corner at Croke park,now that you mention it a large group of Scottish Celtic fans helped us out on that bridge,jesus nearly 30 years ago that lolWasn't it the same day as the hurling final in Dublin so there wasn't meant police at Tolka. Genuinely feared I was about to get a right spanking in the toilet at half time till a few scots saved me, it wasn't the Scottish causing the mither it was the Celtic from Northern Ireland. Didn't help our cause that a few blues took Union Jack's to the game and to the plough before the game
Seville was entertaining when the Spanish mibs turned up. Soon got off.
And they got a kick in at the return off Slask Wroclaw

I remember that Polish lads waited for the return at our place.
I went to Wroclaw a couple of years ago and managed to watch them play.Met some of their fans in an Irish bar after who told me that their nutters hunt Seville down whenever they can. Due to some of their fans getting a kick in off them a few years before.
Having been in the Wroclaw home section and seen some of the fcukers in there I think good luck with that one Seville.
Think some of the Seville lads gave a few of their scarf boys a slap for no reason? Got a welcome to Manchester in Polish 2nd leg.
Yep that was a frightening experience. I can’t remember if it was there you had to walk down a sort of alleyway or that might have been at St Andrews, which is another frightening experience I’ve had away from home.Cardiff away when we lost to a Nathan Blake goal.
I have been everywhere and never seen anything like that in my life.
Before, during and after.
Fucking maniacs.
Blackpool in The Manchester pub was also a real eye opener for a kid!
