Kicked off AOTS at Twerton Park when we went down to Div 3. Toga's were a bit of a give away! Horses on the pitch and fights breaking out everywhere. I was 15 and with my old man and I was shitting myself.
That was a proper dark day.

Twerton was nasty I recall. Went without a ticket and got one for £20 (was fiver to stand). Fighting in the ground and on the trains, I heard. Then me and my mate decided to go to Weston-Super-Mare after the game and the High Street was trashed. Not by us I hasten to add.
Villa away in the Cup was bad. Seats etc. Although much of the 'aggro' now , seems to be little compared with the past.
West ham at home in '86 when they still had an outside chance of the league was hairy when the ICF came into the Brummie in big numbers. I remember running battles at Cov around '85 too. Leeds in '86 when they burned down the groundman's shed with fuel from the lawnmowers.

Yesterday was handbags in reality. Had there been police in the area it would have stoped it much quicker; a load of nonsense with people wanting to be the hard man.
Just get the dingles chucked out asap instead of arguing with them.
I would assume the wolves fans have been arrested? As will the Jimmy Saville look-a-like!

The Millwall game at the back of the Smethwick was far worse. Luckily for the dingles yesterday who got sussed they were in the Halfords and not one of the other stands. It wasn’t a good look but barely anything happened really that doesn’t happen outside a lot of grounds weekly

Got to be Bristol City when the whole of the Smeth was fighting, someone in a wheelchair right in the middle of it all too!
