Bennett scored 23 times in 1986–87 but his season was overshadowed by his tackle in an FA Cup tie against Sheffield Wednesday that left opponent Ian Knight with his leg broken in 7 places.[4][5]

Wrexham were in the old great western at the start of the day , I was with some mates in the golden cross and we saw them gathering , they then left and walked towards Caroline Street where they apparently got leathered by the docks boys
Post match it was carnage with the police outside the western mail and echo offices then outside the prince of Wales and then the lower end f at Mary Street , I was just eating chips and this sexy blonde in a city shirt came up to me and asked me for a chip and we got talking whilst police vans and dog handlers were clearing the city fans away , got a date out of it , she was a smart lass from fairwater, saw her for a few months but she left for university
I have always liked Wrexham but they got battered that day , I felt sorry for them
Wonder how many City fans would have called him a wanker and threw coins at him if they were face to face with him on their own?
An ale fuelled crowd of 20% hard men and 80% hangers on has always been a safe haven.
There is always one nob Henry Hill its you today, bitching others for having a laugh.
I was talking about this goal with s mate last week. It was the game where you had to show up to get a ticket for the Luton/Newcastle cup tie. People climbed over the wall to get out having got their ticket.
They missed a cracker.
Adams took a step back with the ball in flight and volleyed it into the corner. That goal remains in my top 5.
Foul was on Baddely I thought?
Matt. I’ve followed the City since the late 70’s, so I’ve seen it all. It was a dangerous hobby in the 70’s and 80’s. It was period in football that was inevitable, and when it came to violence we were Premier league, but
never liked to see coin throwing, and never agreed with battles outside grounds, city centres and boozers, scaring the shit out of innocent shoppers, drinkers and fans all over the country.
If it had to happen then it should have been organised like the east Europeans. A meet at a deserted venue like the countryside or an old warehouse, and toe to toe with no innocent bystanders getting caught up.
I joined the fray late 80's ( i had watched them with my dad in the early 80's ), funny enough me and 2 mates were walking through town heading to sign-up to the TA's ( after a crazy night on the beer LOL ) , we saw some " handbags " at the station and headed to Ninian park instead of the TA office, crazy really
I always joked it should be on the pitch at 1/2 time like the gladiator battles in roman times
first the home lot go on the pitch, if the away lot fancy it, then then head to the pitch and game on
No innocent bystanders caught up in it
