The guy who ripped his season ticket in front of the Kippax

I was in the platt lane end for our last home game v QPR in 98 when kinky scored after a minute and Pollock dropped a bollock and I always remember a lad running to the front of the stand and ripping up his season ticket and me thinking it was the last home game of the season so it would be binned anyway....

some people are such drama queens!!

Not sure it's the same incident but my brother Trev did exactly that when we were getting trounced by Liverpool 5-0, his season ticket was confetti that day.
Well, he came with me to Wembley last week and despite the result we both had a cracking day.

He posts on here too!!

0-5 at home? you sure? or was it the 6-0 at scouse?

Yes that was me, in the Kippax near the North Stand and at 0_3 I'd had enough ...ripped my season ticket up, threw it in the air ..regretted it straight away and like a dick ended up paying to get in for the last few games!
Couldn't afford to do that now.

Hahaha that's proper tickled me! Last home game!

Being a City fan is awesome!!
 
In one of the last seasons of Maine Road, I shared lifts with a couple who lived near me. One game I drove, the next they did.

Anyway, just as I arrived - on foot - at their door one Saturday, I realised I'd forgotten my ST.

I told my mate, and his immediate response was, "You're not getting out of it that easily!"

It made me smile then, and it still does.
 
i have a blurred memory from around that time of someone jumping out of the main stand( maybe north stand ) and taking the ball off Nigel clough trying to take a free kick, gave the ball to someone else, gestured he should f*ck off and went back to the stand, i think he actually made it back in as well ?

anyone remember this or was i just fantasising after too many beers ?

Is that picture from the same game, or even the same bloke, as when a fella ran on cos he thought it was all a load of shit and dragged his wife and kid on with him.

Great stuff!

There seemed to be a lot of streakers around this time too. People had obviously lost the plot. Some one would run on starkers to be met by huge cheers, then even more cheers when the stewards couldnt catch them.
But one incident sticks in my mind, a couple ran on, hand in hand, and both had no bottoms on! Tops but no bottoms! The usual cheers were then replaced by "eeuuws" as people realised what was going on. To make matters more cringeworthy the stewards didn't bother chasing them so this couple had to just walk back to the stand extremely awkwardly!
Any one else remember this or was it a strange dream I had?

I had a ticket in the open stand between the North Stand and The Kippax for this game.

The bloke was a few rows in front and smashed out of his skull. Up out of his seat all the time, going through all the songs on his own. She was mortified and giving him daggers.

Anyway, they fucked off at half time and the next thing you know, part way through the second half, they are running out of the Kippax. I don't know how they got in there as it was sectioned off and you weren't supposed to be able to get in there from that stand.

I'm pretty certain that he had his pants off with his meat and two veg swinging and she had her top off. Like they only had one set of clothes between them.

I don't know what he had said to her at half time but she must have gone from saying

"Please, dear, you are awfully loud tonight. Would you mind awfully if I could trouble you to sit down and watch the match in a respectful and sombre mood? You are embarrassing me somewhat"

"Yes, I would actually."

"Ok, well now that is settled, I suppose you had better hold my top, I'm getting my tits out on the pitch"

The bloke started running after the ball, trying to tackle the Arsenal players. Vieira, Henry and all them were stood there thinking, 'fuck me, what is this shit.'

Even funnier for me in that match was that it was 4-0 after something like 20 minutes (as it seemed to be every year during that period against Arsenal and some bloke ran out of the Kippax and sat down on the pitch, arms and legs crossed.

Some stewards went up to him and had a word, telling him to shift. He wasn't having it so they picked him up and carried him off whilst he still sat there with his arms and legs crossed, like a really shit Buddha statue.

I remember that game, her tits swinging in the wind whilst she pegged it across the field, her fella's tackle wobbling about as Kanu dribbled the ball around him, he then slipped.

Chants of "You're shit and you know you are" after they went 4-0 up.
 
Great thread with all emotions illustrated shared over the years. Getting older now so decided this years FA Cup was my last FA Final trip. Wembley is a dump! Local environs are even worse!! But you can't end on a loss can you? So they have managed to do me yet again.

I think that was Dotch from Rusholme, he'd had a few and his picture was all over the Sunday papers - I still have a copy somewhere. I don't even think he got a ban for that one.
 
My old man used to work on the railway tracks, went to near enough a full season for free one year. People used to throw there season books out going home from another loss.

Those were the days.
