June 21, 200718 yr Blackpool, early 68, on a unsegregated Kop, and knicking scarfs off opposing fans was the order of the day at the time.
June 21, 200718 yr think it was blackpool, october 74 couldve been oldham though having read this, earlier than i thought, cos i was there on the day of the killing http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Muckers edit thinking about it, that piece isn't accurate may have been right first time and it was that day Edited June 21, 200718 yr by Casino
June 21, 200718 yr Oldham - August 71, 1st game of the season everyone with boots on had to take them off, there was a huge pile of docs at the entrance to the chaddy end
June 21, 200718 yr having read this, earlier than i thought, cos i was there on the day of the killing http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Muckers edit thinking about it, that piece isn't accurate may have been right first time and it was that day (The first organised Firm, known as the Rammy Arms Crew, began in those years, taking their name from the pub they drank in, the Ramsden Arms, opposite Blackpool North Railway Station.) Is this why it became the flying handbag (pufters pub)
June 21, 200718 yr Think it was Blackpool in the mid 80s. Bolton end full so my Dad found an turnstyle in the home end manned by an old chap who was open to a bribe to let us in!!
June 21, 200718 yr Arsenal! At highbury. We lost the game but it was a brill day out! Must of been about 9. Paul Dickov was the centre player in teh programme because i remember laughing at his name! ::::::::::::
June 21, 200718 yr Oldham 1973 or 1974 I think it may have been the only local game on at the time as it was packed with City and United.
June 22, 200718 yr having read this, earlier than i thought, cos i was there on the day of the killing http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Muckers As mentioned in that article, I think it was the 1985-86 madness that was my first away game.
June 22, 200718 yr Tranmere for me too. FA Cup 1st round game at Prenton Park. 19/11/83. 2-2 (Scorers: Joyce & Chandler) Walloped em in the replay 4-1.
June 22, 200718 yr blackburn away in 1975,1-1 draw re that bit from 'the muckers' attacking bolton fans in the rammy arms on boxing arms 1985,utter bullshit because trains didnt run on boxing day so people coming off the trains and drinking in there couldnt be attacked. a few of the lads on here were present when a couple of coaches of us lot ran them all over when they tried to turn us over closeer to the ground and they again came seriously unstuck just like after the game.

I dont think I have ever been to blackpool when they have ran us anywhere, but may have done prior to 76.
June 22, 200718 yr burnley (i think) went on the train on m'todd, 94ish aged 14- drew 2-2 we only need nine men quality
June 22, 200718 yr Bury away mid 60's sometime. Think we may have lost 2-1? Need to check that link of Sluffys cos I have recollections of Alex Dawson scoring for Bury but thought he came along a bit later than that.
June 22, 200718 yr Away to Reading at their old Elm Park ground in 1995. http://www.royals.org/matdoc/210495.html They may have come out on top that day but we soon got our revenge in what is probably still my favourite match of all time!
