Love it when I get complimentsReading this thread makes me ashamed of all you hooligans that @mancityvstoke is a ****
shaming our great name
I remember the City fans bouncing on top of cars on the street as you came out of the away end, lolI remember walking into a brawl after the game as everyone walked towards the M5 bridge.
We found ourselves amongst some baggies who'd just been charged by the Guvnors on the other side of the street. A couple of lads were admirably trying to rally the troops, but it soon became apparent that not only were they outnumbered, but they were also surrounded.
Boston is the murder capital of Britain - has more killings per 1,000 people than anywhere else in the country.Boston came to Mossley for the semi final of the FA trophy it was absolutely mental , carnage for a couple of hours with only a few local bobbies till they got reinforcements . Didn’t bother going to the return leg went watching the Cockney Rejects instead
That must be the Boston strangler.Boston is the murder capital of Britain - has more killings per 1,000 people than anywhere else in the country.
I got started on by a couple of feral, inbred 12 year olds by an ice cream van outside Saltergate in Chesterfield. Ended up with several busted ribs.Even the relatively peacetime days of the late 90s bore this out.
Some of these poxy villages we were rocking up to in the third division, if you weren’t mincing around in Lonsdale tracky bottoms and a Tapout vest you were quite clearly an outsider that wasn’t welcome.
I think you're getting Boston and Moston mixed up.Boston is the murder capital of Britain - has more killings per 1,000 people than anywhere else in the country.
So MES was the Moston strangler and moved away to avoid detection? Interesting.I think you're getting Boston and Moston mixed up.
Just ask MES , he moved from Moston to Boston a few years ago.
He was notorious along Moston Lane and Kenyon Lane.So MES was the Moston strangler and moved away to avoid detection? Interesting.
We've all done it pal haha!He was notorious along Moston Lane and Kenyon Lane.
And he used to hang around Broadhurst Fields shouting abuse at any passing FCUM fans.
Remember West Brom away April 1977 we won 2 1 or maybe 3 1. West Brom waiting for City to come out, when we did they shat themselves and got legged everywhere. One baggie skin head got cut off from his mates and begged a couple of coppers to save him he was crying and pissed his kicks. The police laughed in his face and said you wanted to fight the Manchester lads here they are get on with it. Had to get to the coach so didn't see what happened. The moral of the tale don't mess with the Cool Cats.I remember walking into a brawl after the game as everyone walked towards the M5 bridge.

Always found The Baggies to be the most "normal" fans in the West Midlands .
Never had anything but a friendly welcome at The Hawthorns.
