Most 'bother' you've ever got into at a football match

Another funny story - away at Watford - Cup relay on a Monday night. Travelled in transit van to the game, arrived 10 minutes late and missed City's goal. Game finished 1 -1 and went to extra time. In those days they tossed a coin to decide where the second replay would be... back at Watford.
All the lads gathered at the transit van and when the last one arrived near midnight we got in the van, only to find out it would not start - when opening the bonnet we soon found out someone had nicked the battery - what a night, got home at 0600 follwing morning and had to go to work - great days......

That Watford game you talk about ....... i went to that on the special train ...... the engine caught fire before we'd managed to even travel out of Watford , so the cavalry (and stewards)told us to get off and 'lose' ourselves for an hour or two whilst another engine was sought!

A few hundred of us piled into several pubs on Watford High Street for the duration , which took a few of the local yobs by surprise , as they supped their aftermatch shandies ....... was far too many of us for them to even think about kickin' off though ....... after about an hour the cavalry 'rounded us up' and shepherded us back on the (new)train !
