That picture of Swansea away where the fans invaded the pitch has been put up so many times he may as well leave it as a sticky.

It was the 1st away game I went to and was just a kid in school and went on the service bus from Aberdare. I still cant believe my old man didnt try and stop me going. It was mental! Youd never have thought we were the away side if you were outside the Vetch. Cardiff fans were everywhere.

The Soul Crew protecting scarfers is one big myth. In many ways it was the other round. Big reliance on fans who didnt go looking for trouble but if it came their way as it often did were more than capable of defending themselves.
