was one of the best atmospheres ive experienced
Great shout, not many people remember this game think it was something like our 12th game without a victory under Keegan but our fans that night were fantastic.
Top night.
I was at this. SWP scored at our end too if I remember rightly. I also remember setting off on the coach, late as usual and getting stuck in traffic on the Manc Way as the shite were at home that night. Once they realised who we were (it wasn't the kind of coach to encourage colours to be honest) we got the usual grief and "come on then" from the big hard trafford shite. All changed when the coach started to empty in the middle of the Manc Way and politely ask them to repeat the questions and comments please..... Talk about doors locked and a rapid change of attitude. All very sad really I know- but it was hillarious.

Anyone remember 1990 I think it was - last game of season and Palace away?
Thousands of blues brothers heading down the motorway..

The following season beating bradford away midweek to end the away day jinx. The 87/88 season the support for the team was often like at blackburn, very vocal and large in numbers. Remember going to Plymouth in a day in the same week we played ipswich.
Times move on but its great to see some of the same faces just that bit older.
I was there at that game. I even posted about it a few months ago. we didn't last week we didn't win today etc, never forget the look of the leicester fans, as if to say why are you fuckers singing?....fathellensbellend said:what games stand out for people in terms of support for the team, not just taking 1000's but basically non stop backing.
for me, i remember going to leicester in about 1987, we lost 4-0, perry suckling let one through his legs, and city were atrocious but the support that day was amazing, absolute non stop singing.
also when steve coppell took over, i remember qpr away, we filled the whole end and had a great number down the side, the city end sang stevie coppells blue and white army for an eternity, didn't do a lot of good.
and another memory not necessarily great support, but having lost 2-0 at forest in the michael vonk era, we were held back in the ground as was the norm in those days, over the tannoy came it must be love by madness, i remember a good few thousand joining in.
