ianovit Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 I cannot imagine attending a game without anesthetic. Horwich is a better option than Bolton pre and post match but with dwindling numbers it has been convenient to drink in Spoons till 14:15 and catch the train now they are running on Saturdays again. The Villa coach mentioned by Marc505 was a double decker they pretty much filled The Crown but there was no bother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boro memories : Getting a good hiding off the Boro mob & doing one to get one of our best to wake up from his snooze on the coach(DS) .Game changer ! Circa late sixties. Warwick Rimmers late winner there which gave us a bit of fun getting back to the coach.Season laterthan above I think. Jack Charlton era 4-0 stuffing & the usual aftermatch bobbin & weaving Boro v Newcastle in the prem went with a workmate as I was working up there.Absolute carnage after the game vans / gangs & blood.Even went in the Spartan pub before the game.Quite scary glad I was with a Boro fan.Went on the Holgate & the amount of abuse they directed at their own players was unbelievable .Jimmy Phillips got shitloads! Last visit when we did them 1-0 in the snow .No real scary moments that day although the sight of a balacalavered Boro fan smacking the arse of a police horse with a piece of 4 x 2 which subsequently reared & dislogded the rider lives in the memory. Always interesting was Ayresome Park. Edited July 28, 2020 by Take Hunt Off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leigh white Posted July 28, 2020 Author Share Posted July 28, 2020 i went to one random game at Goodison when Wanderers were playing at Walsall, just for a sesh when Everton played Boro in a cup tie, fucking hell it was brutal. Never seen as much kicking off. Even at Lime St it was mad after the game, i was lucky to pass by and catch the train without getting hit with a bottle.
