I've seen em Billy. Mayne Line outing to the seaside ;-)
Can't believe I didn't know these pictures existed.
Didsbury Dave said:There are some incredible pictures on that site of City fans rioting, invading the pitch and attacking the Luton players after that game which I never knew even existed. There are 30 or 40 of them. Totally amazing.

Was just going to mention that. Little shitty kiosk - they used to get robbed and abused all the time.
Look in the first pic. There's a lad just stood on the roof of the refreshment kiosk watching the game with his hands in his pocket while it all kicks off. Was a different game back then.

Credit to the Luton players in those pics for standing their ground, hope they got a few good
digs in.

We had just been relegated.
Luton players and Pleat should have just fucked off the pitch instead of celebrating
in front of the City fans.
Well they didnt celebrate for long.

I know, I was there - still no excuse for 9 or 10 having a pop at one player.

Not sure the point of the thread is to get into howls of indignation about something which happened 30 years ago. Football was a different game back then as I said. Weren't many foam hands and jester hats in those days. Rightly or wrongly.

What do you think of the Luton picture ?
He's got hair there.
They were certainly perfectly entitled to defend themselves. I was in the Main Stand that day and was too upset for words. Our footballing world came crashing in that day.lancs blue said:gordondaviesmoustache said:[bigimg]http://www.mirrorpix.com/webgate/thumb.php/00210947.jpg?OGSESSION=faeb0deca31b4157c3d22a91f1f21ed2&UN=MTExMTE=&LANGUAGE=eng_usa&IMAGESIZE=2&CHANNEL=&RENDERSIZE=700&IMAGENUMBER=00210947&WSID=1&STATIC=0[/bigimg]
