Boxing Day at Stoke in the bananas season 88/89 was the classic one.Was it New Year’s Day or Boxing Day when people used to wear fancy dress my memory is fading but the site of a group of City fans dressed as Mexicans sombreros ponchos the lot has never faded
Here's a good one. I cant remember who we were playing but we were away. The cops insisted we all went on the bus. The tram/subway was much quicker but being good lads we did as we were told. Two and a half fucking hours later we got to the ground.
But the surreal bit is, at the end of the match a load of Blues did it again.

Was in the corporate at Maine Road for the 3-3 (I think) with Newcastle. Bloke in a suit stood up after we scored and shouted " fuck you you Geordie wankers" in a thick Newcastle accent

Bellamy being sent off at Bolton when the referee adjudged him to have simulated in the box, when he was fouled. The thing that made that odd was his first yellow card was given to him at the end of the first half walking off the pitch and no one in the ground knew he had already been booked. That was odd.
A Spurs game at Maine Road 80s? when we left the field after about 10mins because of a colour clash and changed into our away kit.
I believe the ref was a Mr Clattered-Bent, or something. A man believed by many to be less than honest with some of his decisions. Must be a scurrilous rumour though.Not entirely sure, but I think I read that, after the game, the ref' admitted that he was so pissed off with Bellamy being in his ear, whining and complaining all game, that he was just waiting for an excuse to send him off.
Refs' were sometime interviewed then.

Southampton, last game at Maine Road when the final whistle was blown knowing it was our last game, that was surreal.

Can't remember which game it was, but there was a Fox at the back of the Colin Bell Stand. Poor thing was really scared, wasn't helped when we scored again.

Remember a streaker running on the pitch against Oldham at Maine Road, they were battering us 3-1 in the 98/99 season. Gareth Taylor had missed a hateful of chances and this bloke runs on starlk bollock naked from the North Stand, grabs the ball and smashes it in the net just to show Gareth how it's done. Oh the joys of the old third division.
Remember this game. Was sat in the North Stand and got an eyeful!
If I remember rightly he had these clumpy work boots on which just added to the hilarious spectacle!

Wolves 98ish, 2-2 draw, city fans had the lower strip along the side (same now I think). City fans released loads of balloons at HT. Steward in front of us was smoking and started popping them all with his cig. He must have had 2/3 of it left and it snapped on a balloon. Bloke next to me started laughing and shouted (I hope that was your last f****** cig). I suppose you had to be there but I still chuckle about it today.
