Yes he never worked again. I knew him when he was single with no kids and was drinking with him when he first met his wife Julie. Go back a long way, from Bathgate originally but I haven't seen him now in years.

I have followed City and Darlo (im a Manc 2 club wanker)for more years than I can remember.City as born in St Marys and Darlo too long a story for now.

Darlos not a place to mess around in if they bring everyone out.

Hereford is similar, you would imagine.

I went to see him in Salford Royal after the attack. I was working on a ship in Salford docks so popped in. He was so bad he couldn't speak properly at the time. We used to go to Maine Road and I saw him at the last ever game there. Sound lad.

Came across them on more than one occasion and yes they were a tidy set, the semi I think you refer to was at theirs on a Sunday, pretty sure it was something like an 11.30 kick off, plenty of mither after the game, also seen them turn up at Stockport in good numbers a few seasons before, think they had already won promotion, big battle on the Armoury roundabout. I remember one of them was carrying a lifesize sheep, par for the course I suppose.

My first experience of Chesterfield was back in the 70's when City played them away in the cup, must've been League cup as it was a night game, don't recall any major trouble, City swamped the ground, I was in the wooden main stand, strange old stand that was.

Yes, Saltergate was a right old school ground seen loads of trouble there throughout the eighties, early nineties..
 
Not City related as I have never really had a bad experience following us.

But I had an experience at Oldham(gotham).
Oldham v Chelsea. Hundreds of Chelsea fans infiltrated the Chaddy end. It was carnage. As the Oldham fans plus me and my mate scattered, one big gotham lad shouted,"turn and face". Well that was not happening, we were out of there and safely in a pub soon after half time.
No giant killing on the terrace that day.
 
Was mither at Saltergate last time we played there..Jibbed over someone’s back garden and over the wall to get in alongside our kid as well as a load of other blues.Went off in their end and a few went in their social club looking for mither afterwards from what I can recall.
The modern games sanitised now from what it was.Guess times move on.
