Weird Away Days

[Winchester]

Went to Sunderland away 1990 drew 1-1 at Roker Park

At the end of the game we were kept behind for a while as per the norm,However 2 old ladies suddenly Appeared walking round the Touchline complete with full shopping bags past the Paddock we were hemmed in

Everyone Started Chanting
"Come and have go if you think you're hard enough"
To much Hilarity
Then it ended with
"Get your Teeth out for the Lads"

Never seen anything like that before
Anyone else experienced similar?

I was there remember it so well
Bit of a spat in the pub before ‘New Derby inn ?’ At the back of the stand and saved by the police horses when we left
Also told this same story to many people!
30 years ago !!

First time I heard 'if you hate Newcastle clap your hands' - which obviously we then nicked and became 'hate man united' soon after

Talking of Sunderland, in recent years on 2 or maybe even 3 occasions one of their fans has strolled onto the pitch from the stand opposite the dugouts and walked right across the pitch like they didn't give a fuck, I couldn't believe it the first time then it happened again the next season's a night game I think.

Remember watching a bridge and groom being escorted through a sea of city fans as they tried to get to the hotel at the Fernhurst pub in Blackburn.

Blackburn was the location of myself getting lost in the toilet and sat on the steps withy head in my hands for most of the game after having been to a rave then on the train drink beer at 10am. It wasn't until the Monday I realised we'd been beaten I thought we'd won 2 nil.

Oldham is always wierd, one time police were search every fan making there way down the road from the hospital but when we arrived at the ground some fans had managed to find a ladder and using it to climb the wall to get in the ground.
