BoltonBoy80 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Anyone remember game at feethams in 80s? Was talking to an old school bloke recently about everything BWFC. He was telling some quality old school stories from the 70s and 80s. Had him chuckling to himself as he read through my scrap book of paper clippings of BWFC soccer violence. He was telling me about playing Darlington away in Sherpa van trophy. Game in question said we missed 2 pens, one from Phil neal. Apparently both sets of fans invaded pitch during game for a spot of battling. Said they were game as fuck. Fuck me those days sound amazing.

Mounts Kipper Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 (edited) Think that’s the one when one of the Walkden whites turned his XR3 over onto its roof and our van blew up it was quite lively after the match along the main high street that led upto Darlington town centre, can’t really remember the fighting on the pitch. Just a regulation game in the 80s there was always lots of trouble and tales a plenty that would to while away many a poor game.

Underpants Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Remember the FRT match. Warm sunny evening sat on what can only be described at railway sleepers in one of the stands. Can't remember any bother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C86 Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Remember waiting for the coach outside the Albion with 50 notright's for Darlo away, and it never turned up. Pud and his pal got a van. I cadged a lift back in a van from Walkden (or Athy/leigh), it droppped us at Hulton Arms. It kicked off like fuck on the pitch at full time, some naughtly shit went on, leave it at that. Lively later whilst finding a lift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duck Egg Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I remember the FRT game. We won 3-0 which at the time was the biggest away win I'd witnessed. I'd forgotten we missed a pen but can picture someone, either Phil Neal or Asa Hartford smacking one against the bar, but we missed two did we? Remember it being pretty lively afterwards and a lad near me getting arrested for barking at a police dog (!) but no more or less than many in those days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruba Mustafa Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 That night game was good fun. We only got there at half time, already 3-0 up, we never saw a goal. About 15 of us in the van, saw the floodlights in the distance and my pal drove in a straight line (ish) towards them, ended up in a cul de sac, dumped the van, we went through back gardens and over fences before emerging onto the cricket pitch, on the pitch at full time, they didn’t want to know, stayed in Darlington til after midnight, well you wouldn’t go all that way for nothing would you?
