Who in their right mind wears red to a Spurs match?
A jolly day out.....
....sorry, I totally misread that as Shoplifter!I came straight from work (shopfitter) to St Pancras to get the train. Still had my knife on me. Had to leave with BR staff and pick it up when I got back.
Sammels and KemberAn ex scum player in their line up too... and Chelscum
We did go 2 up Perryman and Osgood (pen)Don't think we went 2-0 up in that one.
WBA we were 2-0 up at half time and lost 4-2.
I remember the 8-2 defeat.I got the piss taken out of me for days.We did go 2 up Perryman and Osgood (pen)
But you are correct it was 2-2 at half time.
I was 10 and waiting for the results on the grandstand teleprinter
Derby 8..(EIGHT) Spurs 2
Soul destroying
Did you go to the Southend preseason that year Pete27 ? Or possibly a year before or after ?We were at Orient for a pre-season game in August '79. Before the game, Meathook goes by in his car. It stops at a set of lights and my mate runs over and gives him a pound note, for his testimonial fund.
Southend was the year after, did go to that - although I don't recollect any trouble. Didn't go to the town centre though.Did you go to the Southend preseason that year Pete27 ? Or possibly a year before or after ?
That was the only game I have ever been to where I didn't actually go to the match because the trouble was so bad - it was mental in the town centre. My mum and dad said that we couldn't go.
I stand corrected. I was 12 and listening on the radio at home. Couldn't believe it.We did go 2 up Perryman and Osgood (pen)
But you are correct it was 2-2 at half time.

He promised me a pair of Erik the Viking's gloves.....still waiting!!I remember Roy Reyland at my junior school - Devonshire Hill.
Talking of Bournemouth, did anyone go to a pre-season friendly back the early 70's can't remember exactly, but there was loads of trouble after the game. We had running battles back to the station, but there was a cricket match on in a local park which got stopped as the cricketers run for safety. The numbers which Hung on the score board were being thrown like frisbees at the Bournemouth fans. That's the day where I met all my mates from South London, been mates ever since.I reckon that might be on the way to Bournemouth - Bank Holiday Monday 1980.
we went to that one, went up in mates car, got there after the kick off, it was awful, as was quite a lot of the mid 70's matches, we started going regular in 71 so had a few good seasons before the rubbish onesWe did go 2 up Perryman and Osgood (pen)

One of my mates was singing 'Shools Out' all the way back on the train that day. I became a fan of Alice Cooper after that.Did someone mention Alice Cooper ?

Went to that Bournemouth game. There's a pic somewhere (maybe in TBWAH) of the away end with a huge Star of David flag.
