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
