Scariest away day following City

[Sky Blue Thinking]

We lived to tell the tale by the skin of our teeth.
Cost us about £50 in whisky though !

Went to Poznan and remember passing a couple of lines of armed/riot cops coming out of the ground, then turning a corner and having to find way back to the city centre. Stadium was new and i remember there were lumps of discarded builders rubble etc outside and it wasnt very well lit. An interesting trip all round but thankfully didnt come to any harm.

Surely that's ‘hibs’

My boy @doots won 3 straighteners inside 2 minutes that night. This record still stands.

Leeds, both scouse late 70s early 80s were never a joy, utd at home always moody then, was in boardroom after one, few of us and loads of utds lads walked in, scary as fuck but got a walkover, somehow! Who remembers Palace away first game of season? same day brum took loads to west ham, we got ambushed after the game at Victoria by Chelsea, hundreds of them, that was an interesting day!

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

Goodison in the early 90's.

I'd been at work before the game, and I'd forgotten that I still had some tools in my pocket, including a retractable craft knife. I was about to get searched on the way in so I legged it and ended up dumping my tools down a back alley. There were Toffee's everywhere, and I ended up having to walk through a big gang of them on my way back to the ground. I just kept my head down and my mouth shut until I got back to the line of coppers separating the home fans from the away fans. Some copper on horseback tried to stop me and I nearly got flattened until I flashed him my away end ticket. He rightfully called me a f*cking idiot, before letting me through.

We lost 1-0.

[Blue and still suffering]

Saw some scary stuff at places like Leeds, Stoke, the North East but that was one game I was convinced I wasn't going to get out of alive.

I was in the United Road paddock with a mate who was a red and his Dad so wasn't as fearful as PB but it was definitely a hostile atmosphere all game. Having said that as a Salford lad was always wary that some school mate would spot me and point out I was a blue

It was when they started blaming us for abandoning them in WW2 that I thought that’s it we’re dead !!!
