Scousers about 87. Just been beat again by them to contribute towards our relegation . But alas on Clermont Rd they wanted to have it after the game. A little young firm of us "gently pushed them back" into the incoming path of some of city's oldskool koolkats and wow that got sorted very quickly

"He who fights and runs away,Best one was blue who thought he was the biggest of bollocks. Always portrayed it at work too.
Wolves at home in the mid to late 90s. The first person to come leading the charge AWAY from their fans was this person. I'll describe him as ginger. Wore glasses.
Whenever this was put to him, about him running away, he said it was tactical
Lives to fight another day".

It's an old Roman quote by Tacticus. Self explanatory I would suggest.What's the quote for he who acts like the leading hooligan, but who is the first to turn and run??

There was a game v WHU when they were all in the Main Stand, the block next to North Stand. They all left with about 10 min left. The police had em all pinned in a side St as we departed for my old mans car on Denmark Rd. Anyone remember what season that was?

I think that Spurs home game was the one where I saw 5 spurs fans getting chased and they all legged into a posh BMW. They thought they were safe but City boys trashed the car before dragging them out to give them a proper twatting. Always been bad blood v them, especially since 81 final games.Remember a big riot on the forecourt at Maine Road before the Chelsea game 88-89, the Spurs cup quarter in 93, my Spurs mate says it's the most scared he's ever been at a match, their escort was getting continually attacked right back to the station.

Tell about some of the scrapes we got into over the years in the 70s with Fred and crew.Good thread you naughty boys.
The best/worst was the swamp away in 74, I could write a book about it.
Particularly League Cup Final in 1976

They tried setting the Shell garage on fire once on Wilmslow road. Then about 50 of them got together and marched towards Maine road all (seemingly) nonchalant and cocky, singing their song 'marching all together'. But little did they know of their imminent fate. Ambushed to leave most of them on the deck, like flat Yorkshire puddings.City at Maine was very tasty for a lot of firms coming in . I know quite a lot from Leeds and they always said back in the day City were always on it
Attack by Manc punk band Armed Force seemed an apt tune to ruck; )

I’ve been called a few interesting names over the years, how are you doing mate?
How bad was it after the Coventry game in the cup when goater scored in the last minute and they invaded the main stand?
I remember inside they ran into the main stand and City fans were running over from the Kippax to help out.
Walked past their end after the game and there was just a big semi circle of city fans surrounding it waiting for them to come out. Always wondered what happened when they came out
