PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

[FrankSwift1]

I was a regular at Maine Road in the 60’s and I can honestly say I never met one of these fans who went to Maine Road one week and the swamp the next.
Perhaps it’s a myth.

My grandad used to do it, but I think it was a 50's trend rather than 60's

My Grandad too when he was a boy. He said he only started really hating Utd (and he did in later life) after Buchan injured Bell.

Are you a mechanic or a plumber?

I went to the swamp in the late 50s because I was dependent on others dads as mine was not interested. I finished up going to both until I could go without parents. Then it was strictly MR only.
I did get to see Duncan Edwards and was impressed by his presence.

Mods. Ban hammer.

If nothing else, this thread is rooting out some right wrong ‘uns. “I went to OT but it wasn’t frequently.”
“Duncan Edwards was a marvellous player.”
“I went with my red mates and it was a right laugh.”
Get to fuck.

I've come up with the idea of an arse napkin to stop my arse getting wet from splash back

I only went to OT once, seats cramped, no leg room, crap stadium. It was for a rock concert.

Proud to say that the only times I’ve set foot in that shithole we’re to watch City.

Different times. Different people. :-)

She's the real de facto ruler of AD.

It seems Eccles we are "wrong uns" despite being match goers for a combined 130 years plus
You are right how times change.
Wrong uns indeed.

You’re out of order mate, back then it was commonplace to support one team but go to both. There wasn’t the animosity like there is now.

 

[1961_vintage]

He was never banned. He was (and still is) thread banned

Why?

 

[Kakhaber The Great]

To add to this, the rivalry and violence was at its worst between both sets of fans.
Not having it all.

Hi, Shirley. My dad had a spell going one week to City, next to the rags with his mate. Both Blues. When I asked him about it many years later, he explained they went because of the City link with Busby and the ‘babes’ were a good team to watch. But he also noted it was a different atmosphere at OT, less humour, a little more ‘intense’. I don’t recall him ever saying anything about actual violence.

When the Munich air crash happened, he said attendances went through the roof and it was a lot more difficult getting in. Think they went twice more and sacked it off; just City from then on.

Not a 'myth', but pre-60's though so maybe different...
