The Kippax

[Kippaxpete]

I was there that night she was a stunner. We also sang "We know where you're truncheon is!" They moved her for the second half the spoilsports.

I remember the police holding us in a carpark at the train station and that old copper on a horse slagging us off and trying to get a reaction, an utter prick

Yep, I remember that one. Where did the years go?

“Mind yer car sir” dog shit alley, windy corner, Gene Kelly, ‘covonia kills coughs’ ‘commit no nuisance, Klix beefy bovril,smell of piped tobacco, piss running down the terrace, Kung fu stars, darts, “ we can see you sneaking out” “you’re going home in a fucking ambulance” burnt scarf, plastic falcon, “Bring on the champions”
Happy days!

That plastic falcon had pride of place behind the bar at the Corner Cupboard in Glossop after we played our final game at Maine Road.

No idea mate, good times. I got talked into going at the last minute so jumped on a bus from Wythenshawe to catch the train. I didn't have a ticket so I walked up to a blue at the station and asked if he had a spare ticket. He went white and said, "How did you know I had one???" He thought I was psychic but I was just going to ask everyone, I just got lucky first time

Forgive me father for I have sinned…

When I was a young ten year old (61/62) we’d ask mind yer car mister.
If declined we’d pop a make or type chrome strip off the car. Proper cast jobs they were, not the stickers now.
on big match days, when the Avenue was rammed we’d car surf over the roofs of the cars.

That’s why I always got the fucking bus ;)

What a stand!
Nothing like it.
Where Else would they put thousands of opposing fans separated by a single line of plod?
Oh the memories.
Aerial bombardments of Bottles of piss, darts, coins.
You staked a claim on your place and that was yours for evermore.

If it was from a rag he's obviously never been to the swamp, surprised it gets a safety certificate....or perhaps I'm not.
