I was there and I'm struggling to understand.bobbyowenquiff said:To be honest the Luton players really did provoke the trouble. I was gutted that day and, without condoning what happened, can understand the lads who went on the pitch. It was a spontaneous outpouring of desperation. You had to be there to understand. It was the worse day ever at Maine Road and nothing since, including lots of last minute goals from the rags, has ever got close to the anguish we all felt. I still hate David Pleat to this day.
The first two pictures at Blackpool do not look like a riot to me. I remember jumping over that kiosk at a night league cup match around 77/78 to get in the City end. I would say that is the City end where people are queing at the kiosk and suggest it is perhaps City fans jumping over to get in our end. I dont remember Blackpool fans ever being in our end. Also the police looked fairly relaxed in those pictures. I could be wrong.Didsbury Dave said:chaddblue said:In the second one, seen the four blues still queuing for their pies whilst a full scale riot erupts around them?1
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.
