Mid 80's v West Ham and loads of them going in the Main Stand doing the Oakie Cokie. They then congregated after the game at the far end of Maine Road and then marched / charged up Maine Road chanting Irons Irons Irons..... Kicking City fans all over the place.
The following season they tried it again and after the game the biggest City crew I'd ever seen was outside waiting. Half of Moss Side's young males were there, chased and battered the Hammers. They stood out like a sore thumb mostly wearing yellow Slazenger jumpers.
I got completely sparked out by a big black guy I had a black eye for weeks.
Also got stabbed in shoulder at WH that year.
Funny but never felt any animosity against the hammers.
Blue on blue in the Claremont those that ran wished they haddnt
