Think it might be James Hill who was the culprit
Foxesmints Posted 19 April 2020 Posted 19 April 2020 Went there to the 1974 FA Cup 4th round game. Drew 1-1, Mullery scored goal of the season for them, Glover scored for us. Previous round we had beaten Spurs and rumours were that a load of their fans would be there to seek "revenge". Remember a dart being thrown at their keeper, Mellor? during the game. After the match we went to our designated pick up point for the coach, Robinsons of Burbage, and it didn't turn up for ages - we were beginning to panic. Never did find out what caused the delay. Won the replay, then famously beat Luton 4-0, followed by Joe Waters double in beating QPR.

jerry Posted 20 April 2020 Posted 20 April 2020 I was there aged seventeen with a friend who let me drive his Ford Popular on L Plates as had not yet passed my test. Remember there star player Alan Clarke was out with an injury and was due to sign for us for a record fee of £150000 that summer - how times change ! Also recollect we could walk around the ground at half time as there didn't seem to be any segregation of fans. If the game was boring then the open side had views of the Thames.Always had a soft spot for Fulham and their fans , seemed a lovely family atmosphere. Finally whenever I hear the John Fred Playboy band playing Judy in Disguise with glasses it reminds me of the day playing loudly over the p a system - happy days.

Edit meant this about Filbert St.

I remember Fulham being our bogie team so many games we seem to outplay them but lose to a late goal. Also remember that open side against the Thames had flags of all the Tier 1 teams, when they got relgated they announced they wouldn't change them as they weren't planning on be in the 2nd Tier long, they weren't they got relegated down to Tier 3
