Could've been, remember walking up to the ground and there were city fans in the sheff utd end telling us to come and join them. Was only 13 so decided that was not a good idea!Was the Shuff match when there was was a bottle battle on their end ?

- Glory Hunting Blue. Was Chelsea.
Southampton 1974. The week before the LC final.
Law and Marsh scored. Buzzer had one disallowed straight from kick off.
The only time I've seen any of the game since was in the Dennis Law doc. recently. Only his goal though.
I'm sure Rodney half volleyed from the edge of the 18 yard box.
2-0 to the City.

That was the one where we had 2 players sent off wasn't it, I seem to remember the City fans singing '9 men, you couldn't beat 9 men' at the end .Was one of those who got an 'early bath 'our keeper, Andy Dibble ?QPR away October 1994 aged 14 with my schoolmate with Official Supporters Club. Mate's Dad dropped and picked us up at Chorlton St (so basically 2 just turned 14 yr olds on their own, which is mad really.) I won the raffle on the coach for free travel to a game of my choice and we won 2-1. Great day.
There were loads of good away days at Loftus Road, there was normally decent away support, good atmosphere and (even when we were a bit shit) we got a few results down there.
