In the early 70's in the Kippax , the referee made a decision which angered the City fans and some guy behind me yelled out 'you black enamelled melt' at the referee. Must have been a country boy!
Used to hear this regularly in the late 80s from a bloke who stood near me on the Kippax..except he used the word 'bastard ' at fhe end ...and it waa always very loud.In the early 70's in the Kippax , the referee made a decision which angered the City fans and some guy behind me yelled out 'you black enamelled melt' at the referee.

Same night that a paddling pool was passed round with a bloke in it.Behind the goal at West Brom one night match. All sorts of inflatables being produced to loud cheers as if it was a magician pulling rabbits from a hat. Strangest to me was an inflatable frying pan complete with egg. WTF was that made for?
Then a huge lumbering Frankenstein was lifted high in the air to a spontaneous 'only two Trevor Morleys" and a second Frankenstein appeared to 'only three Trevor Morleys' . The two big clumsy things were 'fighting' like something from 'Its a Knockout'. Fans of both teams and players even the ref were laughing.
But the miserable gets of the West Midlands Police stood glaring at the crowd unable to crack a smile.
Yes I remember that now. As if each one was trying to out do the last. Those things took some blowing up but l never saw anyone doing the actual blowing. No smutty remarks please;)Same night that a paddling pool was passed round with a bloke in it.
I was in the NS at the time and you could hear the contact....ouch.“Fucking hell ref. Are you blind. Thatcher’s barely touched him. Terrible decision!”
