SystonFox Posted 3 August 2011 Posted 3 August 2011 I was at Crewe Alex for the last game of the season where we were promoted and they were relegated. A colleague of mine had got the tickets - turned out her dad was a Crewe Alex season ticket holder, so you can guess who we were sitting with! There was a huge party going on in the away end and I had to sit on my hands during all three of our goals to avoid being picked out by the scummy Nazi-saluting moron teenagers they seem to have there. Seriously at Crewe? Even my nans been there with her Norwich supporting boyfriend and commented what a lovely little friendly family club it is. It's always the quiet ones eh Crewe Alexandra?
Spudulike Posted 3 August 2011 Posted 3 August 2011 My Dad and me rolled up late for an evening kick-off at Ninnian Park, parked the car in a back street and legged it down to the stadium. It was quiet outside as eveyone was in with the players emerging from the tunnel. Not knowing the ground lay-out we asked a copper where the away end was and, either his directions were useless or we misheard them, we went through the turnstile and found ourselves in amongst the Cardiff nutters....facial tattoos, the lot. Now I would've kept me gob shut but I knew that my Dad wouldn't and I really thought we were going to die. As the match kicked off I discreetly told a steward of our predicament and we got escorted around the pitch to the away terrace. The City fans must've thought we were hard or just bleeding mad.
The Year Of The Fox Posted 3 August 2011 Posted 3 August 2011 Knowing how coppers are, you didn't mishear him at all. He sent you that way.
Footnote75 Posted 3 August 2011 Posted 3 August 2011 Seriously at Crewe? Even my nans been there with her Norwich supporting boyfriend and commented what a lovely little friendly family club it is. It's always the quiet ones eh Crewe Alexandra? Yeah, it was horrible. No idea why the stewards didn't just cart them out, but they didn't. No trouble outside the ground, though.
Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 3 August 2011 Posted 3 August 2011 2006 when we were on a roll with Rob Kelly and played Cov away on Easter Monday. For some reason we didnt get tickets in our end so we bought some in the Cov end, in the corner nearest the LCFC fans where most their 'hardcore' are. When Stearman scored I had to sit on my hands, but Dad told the stewards about us really being LCFC fans and they took us to sit in the LCFC end second half. Hated being around the dickhead Cov fans though, thinking they were all hard.
Mickey O'Neil Posted 4 August 2011 Posted 4 August 2011 Can't remember any City games off the top of my head but I went Forest v Brizzle City one night to get my football fix. Went in the Brizzle end, them retards knew we wern't Bristol fans. About 25 mins in, a load of them starting offering us out for a fight!!! Total country-bumpkin ****** they were. Proper 'tards. Also went Cov v Newcastle. Went in the Geordie end. Newcastle won 1-0 iirc. Sure Mirandinah (sp?) scored a penno. Got no hassle from the Geordies, they were sound. Needed a fix in 89 (???) as well. I was too slow for home tickets for the Chelsea game (when they repotedly brought 8-10k fans). I ended up choosing Scarborough v Scunthorpe. On the way back, we changed at Sheffield. Couldn't understand why all these scousers were crying on the platform opposite. Only realized when we got home it was the day of the Hillsborough disaster.
SOCCERROO FOX Posted 4 August 2011 Posted 4 August 2011 I stood in the Gwladys Street when we played Everton in 2003, think it was around Christmas. We lost 3-2. Went behind, think it was an own goal, Andy Impey maybe. Then Sir Les smashed in a free kick on the stroke of half time, I just about managed to contain myself as an excited 9 year old. We took the lead and I let out a bit of a high pitched squeal, which my Uncle (Evertonian) masked as a sort of scream of horror. Obviously as was the story of that season they scored twice late on to take the win, Tomaz Radzinski I think got the winner, although it was Rooney who changed the game, and I had to look pleased with the outcome. Not sure I'd want to do it now I'm old enough to have abuse thrown at me, especially angry Evertonians wanting your blood, never good. That was my first ever away game and had heard all the stories about English Hooligans etc. Went with 2 blokes one i met that day and they just kept trying to start fights even at 11am in a pub in Stoke. they tried to get in to all of these stoke pubs. As a 17 year old in a foreign country i was a bit worried about the whole thing.
Melton fox boy Posted 4 August 2011 Posted 4 August 2011 If there is any problems saturday, its going to be coventry's fault, a bit of forward planning and commom sense could avoid any issues...they are predicting a gate of 20,000, that still leaves 12,500 empty seats..i shall be occupying three of them... No way wil it be 20k
Jakemoore Posted 4 August 2011 Posted 4 August 2011 My dad queued for an hour on the phone to the box office this morning and bought 3 away tickets, so I shall be joining the blue army up the M69 without needing to hide in the home end....c'mon Leicester!!!

Had it not been for him, we'd have stayed up instead of Everton.
lurchio Posted 4 August 2011 Posted 4 August 2011 Done it twice Years ago when we beat Villa 3-1 and was sat with my uncle a villa fan. When Izzet scored the 3rd i think, i couldn't contain myself and jumped up but as i was only a wee boy nothing was really said. Then i did it at MK Dons. Decided to watch the last few mins at the top of the concourse which was lucky for us as when Gradel put his free kick in the top corner, the guys sitting in front of us who were city fans got a right shoe in. I managed to run the **** out as a crowd built up the steps was closing in when we all jumped up to celebrate. good times!!
ScouseFox Posted 4 August 2011 Posted 4 August 2011 Steve Howey. Rooney scored against us home and away that season. Had it not been for him, we'd have stayed up instead of Everton. Not quite sure how I confused Impey and Howey
Chap84 Posted 4 August 2011 Posted 4 August 2011 I ended up in the derby end at wembley playoff final. We wasn't the only 1's either another bloke who ended up kicked out about 5 mins in when they figured he was a city fan. I managed to keep quiet and watch the lot, when we lifted the trophy we had the whole derby end to are selfs . Brilliant
Craig Posted 4 August 2011 Posted 4 August 2011 Old Trafford in 1998? First game of the season. We were in a box, but in the United end, and I'd got my Leicester shirt on (I was only 11/12). 2-0 up and I was in dreamland. I was running and jumping around the box, banging on the window at the United ******, going crazy like the away end in the far corner. Then 2 goals in 7/8 minutes of injury time levelled the game for them... Boy did I get some shit.

Nope, thats just Police for you. My dad and his friends had four tickets to a Leicester game back in the day and just before kick off he found out two of his friends couldn't make it so he gave them to a couple of coppers and told them to give them to any Leicester fans who may need them. 10 minutes in to the game two Sheffield fans rock up next to them saying how happy they were because they only had to pay a fiver for both tickets from the nice Police officer. Absolute scum.
LeeTheFox Posted 4 August 2011 Posted 4 August 2011 I got a slap at Liverpool about 10-12 years ago in the main stand, the old Anfield Road end was being built and no tickets were given to away fans, we got two in and said we would sit there quiet, wasnt going to be hard as we werent expecting anything, we score to go 1-0 up after about 90 secs (think it was Elliott) and then spend the next 80 mins watching them pound our goal. Said to my mate about 5 mins from the end I'm gonna have to go on 90 because I'll go nuts when the final whistle goes, literally after saying it we launch a counter and Heskey is away, shoots and the ball is parried...... Fenton is charging it to knock the rebound home, ball hits the net at the kop end and we are both charging down the aisle with our arms in the air. Dodged a couple of swings getting out Made me giggle this did aha
