Who else was there?

[AliBobbyJ]

But it was similar to the World cup one that Brazil got disallowed. Anyone else remember this or have I just dreamt it?

Was that when they took a corner on the stroke of half time and the English referee blew his whistle as the ball was in the air?

Yeah...some came over to us ....so ....we went on the pitch...they ran back rapid. Scrapping then with stewards and dibble until we climbed back. One lad ran into Derby lot on his jack. Mad ****. Took ages to get him out of police station.
He got fined for that and never ever paid.

Remember the lad who ran into the Derby fans on his own, I thought he looked round a, probably thinking he was with a mob, turned back round and carried on towards them, mad sod.

Was you there end of season game Bill,mid eighties ??
Got beat 3-1 i think,was standing terraces then,but we were that bad,and for a laugh we all sat down.
We had one full side of the ground

Yes- I was there - just part of the fun of following City - It was a bit earlier than you thought - 1980.

It was full time I think but I think he blew as the ball was in mid air from the corner. I've found it on youtube once I realised it was Clive Thomas:

Now we can all confirm we were all at York City away……but was anyone else with me at Pride Park when we drew with Derby County 1-1

It was that long ago, i can’t remember much….
I think it was the league cup on a Tuesday or Wednesday night.
I think Tiatto scored the equaliser?
I paid £20 for a ticket (which was expensive at the time)
They were premier league and we were in the 2nd division.
We sang “we get more in division 2, city is our name”
Replayed at Maine Road and i think Wanchope scored for Derby.

Or have i dreamt all of that?

Obviously 75% of you lot were supporting Chelsea at this time and won’t remember :-)

I remember it as I was sat/stood next to Kevin Kennedy and it was around the time he’d been on the front pages for entering rehab. He was chanting along to all the songs, but had to ask the words to the invisible man song!

[Blue and still suffering]

Yep I seem to vaguely remember the game there 76/77/78ish when Tuart had a goal disallowed as the ref blew for half/full time before the ball went in, I can't remember fully, its a long time ago. But it was similar to the World cup one that Brazil got disallowed. Anyone else remember this or have I just dreamt it?

Missed the Tueart goal game but was there the year after for the first game of the season when Kidd scored in a 1-1 draw. Was also there in 76/77 when they had to paint the penalty spot and we lost 4-0.
Never been to Pride Park.

 

[Mr Ed (The Stables)]

Likewise I've never been to Pride Park, just the Baseball Ground.

 

[Stephen230]

me 2 lost 4-0 when going for title[ game corrigan got booked for saying pen spot was wrong] im sure we lost 6-0 once but i tried lots of beer to get over that 1 a couple of 1-1s 1 game last match of season when it was mayhem when derbys fans came on to pitch and it was a battle field all way to train station and then at sheff station it went off with utd fans

Yeah we definitely lost 6-0 one time, as it was a very rare time I’ve driven to an away game and misjudged the journey time. We were already 2-0 down when I got there. Dean Saunders hatrick possibly. Seem to remember Shilton being in nets for them that day maybe aswell. Not that he did much.

Derby away. It would have completed a comeback from 2 nil down for a draw. Took a very long time for everyone to realise we hadn't drawn the game
