Or ironically Burnley away after getting promoted from the dungeon in 1988, 3000 loonies dressed as all sorts. Strangely when promoted to the sunshine league 35 years later we only took half as many fans…..

Everyone off their cake
Even the pop and crisps bus was pissed
It helped that it was sometimes a crucial relegation game like Bury 1989
Surely the first ever arrest of a gorilla 🦍 in a football ground

One of our lot, Sid, didn’t take a bag, he took one of those suit/bag things on a hanger, of course he left it on the railings outside the hotel in Albert Road when we were leaving
It was the old Sunday opening hours in those days. We called in to a pub in Dudley on the way home, a pissed off Sid, who was the driver, didn’t come in and had a kip in the car. Come 3 o’clock the landlord asked us if we wanted a stop on, daft question There were half frosted windows and a police car was driving up and down outside, every time it passed the pub the landlord shouted ‘Everyone duck’ Sid was even more pissed off when we woke him about half six, him thinking it was just after three.
Great weekend.
Gillingham. Crowd full of Batman & Robin, another pair come up the steps, someone shouts not another one, gets a quick response “no we’re fathers for justice” quick as you like
I remember going to Mansfield at the end of the 98-99 season, dressed as the Ayatollah - with full robes and Arab head-dress. There were a few of us there that day, some very much worse for wear. We lost 0-3. Happy days.
