Scariest away day following City

Liverpool away 1981. We played them after the fa cup final, city took about 50 fans. Liverpool fans in are end, threatening us with knives, police didn't want to know, absolute nightmare getting back to lime street.
 
Off the top of my head:

Stoke in ‘98 was tasty.

Everton in the league cup quarter final in the ‘87-88 season.

Millwall in the ‘98-99 season

A few Derbies in the 80’s.

Once got asked if I was a City fan in a slightly menacing manner while walking in the police escort from the Nottingham train station to the City Ground. ‘86-87 season. Fucking hilarious! No mate, I took a wrong turn to Sneinton and ended up in this police escort full of City fans. It kicked off quite a bit after that game, doubtless involving my accuser at some level.
 
Everton away late 70's , not sure of year but we won 2-1 and Daley scored ,and still got the scar with a dozen stitches on my wrist ,after the match walking to the car on Stanley Park a little scouse **** said give us your scarf and your trainers ,told him to get f*cked or something along those lines , at the last second i noticed a stanley knife heading for my face and blocked it with my hand /wrist , then he legged it with a couple of his mates . Don't think they were Everton fans they were'nt wearing colours more likely low life Dippers on the rob , i've never parked on Stanley Park since :)
 
A few have mentioned Birmingham (the club) as an interesting place to visit back in the 70s & 80s so as a counter-balance I remember taking the short walk home to Hulme, where I lived after the delightful suburb of Ardwick, after a game against them around that time and scores of Birmingham fans were spark out on the wasteland next to the Denmark.

God knows what happened that day.

That Forest game was my first away without my dad present, I'd of been 16. Went down on the special, old bill kept us behind for ages at the station. It had already kicked off in the town centre with City fans who got the service down.
 
I should add I reckon I’ve seen City play away in about 35 home ends, if you include corporate. Been plenty of occasions where I’ve been more then a little scared. Went in the Monaco end, right behind the goal in the middle of their hardcore fans when we lost there in the CL in Pep’s first season. My proficiency in French has diminished significantly in the last 35 years. I could have easily been rumbled. That could have got nasty, but I did get a buzz out if it.

Not so much scary, as amusing, got stared at by a Baggies fan in the corporate area at the Hawthorns every time we scored, culminating in him offering me out. 2013/4 season season; we won 3-2. I wasn’t being disrespectful either. What a fucking loser.

Millwall night game was on top, think it was a cup replay. Got the shit kicked out of me at Sunderland (Roker Park) one year, probably the worst apart from England games.
