Fez of Mahrez Posted 30 August 2006 Posted 30 August 2006 And I don't just mean watching us get beat by a bunch of cloggers from up north on a regular basis. I will always remember going to Notts County away when I was very young. Think it was about 1991, think we lost 2-1 and Walshie got sent off for violence. May be wrong about those things but will always remember the surge of the crowd through the pens behind the goal after they opened up the stand on the other side for away fans, pushing me up against the mesh fence at the front. Had never been so scared before and said to my Dad after the game I was never going to an away game again.... that promise didn't quite materialise! And some bloke tipped pipe tobacco down my neck in about '95 at the top of the Carling Stand, the bastard. Nearly got ran over by a bus in a depressed mope after the infamous Wycombe game.
Manwell Pablo Posted 30 August 2006 Posted 30 August 2006 Got a cigerate put out on my hand in 1994/1995. Southampton home I think when Mark Blake scored a brace.

Durnerz Posted 30 August 2006 Posted 30 August 2006 Forest Away 02/03 was quite bad, got a police escort from the station to the ground via the Meadows! Clever idea that was, then after the game, I left on the final whistle after Lesters 97th minute goal to find the Police still back in the ground while around 20-40 Forest thugs outside the pub ready and waiting for any Leicester to come along, thankfully I avoided it while a fight kicked off I assume with Leicester Baby Squad and the Forest lot. Leeds at home last season everyone knows about, I was in the front line for that, my mates dad took a coin in the eye, up the top of L1 when all the cops rushed to the bottom leaving us open to get hit, cheers! Caught up in a fight between Leicester and Sheff Utd in 02/03 as well after the 0-0 at the Walkers on Welford Road. Some other instances as well but my memory has given up on me at the moment.
The Don Posted 30 August 2006 Posted 30 August 2006 Got to be stoke away for me in the play off semi final whe gary parker scored late on to send us through!! Atmosphere before the game was bad enough with 3 helicopters overhead loads of dog units and horse. Then getting coined from the stand above after the game and the stoke fans trying to rush our area from the pitch. Never will I be as scared again and hate the tom jones singing ******* from then on since
oundlefox Posted 30 August 2006 Posted 30 August 2006 Definitely Pompey away in the play-off semi-final when we went through after they'd finished 12 or something points ahead of us in the league. We'd played the first leg at Forest and thanks to Joachim's wonder goal travelled south in confident mood. All was cool and dandy until after we'd knocked the swines out. Seriously bad vibes outside the ground and then from nowhere down this side street, loads of Pompey fans were seen hurtling towards the Leicester fans merrily walking back to coaches etc. All I could here was get the b*****s as people around me were getting a fairly unpleasant beating. I could have beaten Linford Christie that night legging it back to the coach. Once in the apparently safe haven of the coach, we were driving out of Portsmouth ecstatic at having won when suddenly two bricks smashed into the windows from some nice local lads who were obviously a bit touchy at losing. One window was completely put through and the other just smashed into millions of pieces. Got about four miles out of Pompey when one poor soul on the coach had a shard of glass blow into his eye. We sat waiting yonks for an ambulance before heading back home. Best part of a rather cold trip home was though in the motorway services. We'd just pulled into stop some people catching hypothermia when the team coach pulled in next to us. That sparked pandamonium as 50 or so cold but delirous Leicester fans all tried to lean out of the two gaping holes in the side of our coach to offer up our congratulations. The look on the players faces will live with me to the grave! I've never seen Brian Little look so shocked.
Nationwider Posted 30 August 2006 Posted 30 August 2006 My Dad and I got caught in the middle of some afters involving City and Forest fans outside Filbo in '85. It was about my 3rd or 4th game and I was papping myself. Also, I smashed my head on a burger van canopy outside Meadow Lane before our 91/92 ZDS triumph - hardcore, me.
surrifox Posted 30 August 2006 Posted 30 August 2006 driving home from Arsenal game (circa 1976) near the ground and some a'holes started lobbing bricks and rubble across the road at each other . One landed on the bonnet of my beautiful shiny Ford Cortina Mk111
LCFC-IAN Posted 30 August 2006 Posted 30 August 2006 I was nearly hit by a cup of tea away at Wolves last season, but it hit Bernie instead who they were probably aiming for
Wils Posted 30 August 2006 Posted 30 August 2006 I nearly got spat on at forrest away few years ago. W**kers
The Stig Posted 30 August 2006 Posted 30 August 2006 My dad left his lights on in the car and the battery went dead so we had to push it and held up all the traffic,!
Stevosevic Posted 30 August 2006 Posted 30 August 2006 Fell down the steps at Filbo when Muzzy equalised against liverpool in the 81st minute, it ended 2-2. i was so happy i didnt feel the pain at that point, but later on in the evening i had alot of bruises.
Knighton Matt Posted 30 August 2006 Posted 30 August 2006 Getting my view obstructed every game by Wils disappearing for a beer on 41 mins and not returning to his seat by the start of the 2nd half. Ahem!
Wils Posted 30 August 2006 Posted 30 August 2006 Getting my view obstructed every game by Wils disappearing for a beer on 41 mins and not returning to his seat by the start of the 2nd half. Ahem! Im sorry Matty. You could always join me instead of abusing me when i return to my seat... Im buying?
Knighton Matt Posted 30 August 2006 Posted 30 August 2006 Im sorry Matty. You could always join me instead of abusing me when i return to my seat... Im buying? One day I'll not be hungover at the footie and join you mate
Wils Posted 30 August 2006 Posted 30 August 2006 One day I'll not be hungover at the footie and join you mate Sounds good to me. :pinch:
The Don Posted 30 August 2006 Posted 30 August 2006 Getting my view obstructed every game by Wils disappearing for a beer on 41 mins and not returning to his seat by the start of the 2nd half. Ahem! I used to go on 41 minutes, but the way we'r eplaying at the mo, its lucky if I make it to 30!!
Leicfox Posted 30 August 2006 Posted 30 August 2006 Bolton V Leicester at Burnden Park i think it was the game Speedie scored at cracker from near half way line, anyway i got the train there with a broken ankle, got train home with broken ankle with no pot on if you get my drift.
dandannieldanok Posted 30 August 2006 Posted 30 August 2006 Never really had a bad experience at a City game apart from the drivel served up on the pitch most of the time!
Burleyfox Posted 30 August 2006 Posted 30 August 2006 1) 1960's versus Glasgow Rangers in a "friendly" - was at the front on the popular side of Filbert Street - all hell broke loose with our sophisticated North of the Border friends "P***ing" into beer bottles and throwimg them over my head at the fuzz! 2) versus Man Utd in the 1970's ... those were the days of the cages and I turned up fairly early and went into a pen on the Kop clearly marked "Home Only" - some time after 2.00 they decided to let Man Utd fans into the pen due to overcrowding in their allocated pen. Oh God! when Chris Garland scored the winner all hell broke loose - thank God I wasn't wearing my City gear that day.
Head Honcho Posted 30 August 2006 Posted 30 August 2006 30 of us in the back of a Bedford van at Spurs away during the 80's decided to have a few jars in the west end before the game got intop a bit of bother and so got to WHL 30 minutes after kick off only to be refused entry so went for a few more pints in Tottenham not the brightest of ideas all hell broke loose we all(well about 25 of us)managed to get back to the van in one piece and were then escorted to the M1 by the old bill. Halfway up the M1 got pulled over by the law because of the sparks coming from the van half of us had to be left at the next service station while the rest of us returned to Leicester. Luckily I was on the first journey but not sure whether the driver went back for the rest! Wouldn't say it was a bad experienced cause I loved every minute of it. Them were the days!
Swedging Posted 30 August 2006 Posted 30 August 2006 A smack in the side of the face at Everton kind of put me off Liverpool for life. Getting a police escort of 2 from Stoke station and then getting jumped on the way to the ground. And an idiot mate getting completely lost, parking miles from the ground at Coventry and then getting us chased down hundreds of backstreets by taunting the locals.

I was stood next to a mate outside the Tigers ground when he was slashed across the cheek with a stanley by an Everton fan, If the knife was in the other hand I would probably have got it!
