I seem to remember some guys lining up naked on the goal-line, while someone kicked balls at their backsides. Some weird TV programme, it was...
Dirty Sanchez. The Welsh equivalent of JackassQuote:

The stewards also attacked Pedro, ripped his Swansea shirt off and Pritchard stamped it into the mud to a chorus of “You Jack Bastard” from around the stands.Quote:

The bloke standing halfway up sloper Road on the way to the ground saying " moneyspinner lottery tickets ! " every single home game , for years
I never saw anyone buy a ticket from him
He must have given up , or gone to see the great bluebird in the sky
In the 70's i went to Stamford Bridge to watch Chelsea v Leeds on the supporters club coach after our game with Southampton was called off. I was in the shed end when about half a dozen drunken valley boys took out a huge welsh flag and opened it up. I sort of moved away as i thought they were in for a good kicking. I could not believe it when the shed opened up and people gave them space. Police moved in and im not sure what happened then. As a young lad then i still think of those crazy valley boys
There are loads of things, mostly fan induced. Remember Stockport away, mid nineties, first game of the season. We were tonked and Kevin Francis beat lumps out of our defence. That was standard fare back then. The one thing that stands out is some City fan walking the terrace with a ghetto blaster, taking zero notice of the game and nobody else really batting an eyelid, although that was pretty much standard fare back then as well.
Two identical Twins beating the shit out of each other at Hereford away, early 90s. The plod turned the dogs on them both and they both attacked the dogs. More disturbing that day was a youngish City fan who suffered with Cerebral Palsy being detained by the police at the train station because the police thought that he was pissed due to the way that he walked and talked due to his disability. City fans were surrounding the police protesting his innocence.
Craven Cottage when they brought the police on horseback onto the pitch when the trouble was on the terraces.
The City fan who ran onto the pitch before the match at the Vetch and started shagging a 6ft polystyrene Swan whilst two rows of teenage pom pom girls danced trying not to notice took some beating.
Police with dogs chasing Millwall fans who were heading to the Grange End en masse from the Bob Bank.
However, despite the best efforts of their handlers the dogs couldn't be diverted from devouring the hot-dogs that were spread around the Bob Bank after the Millwall fans had turned it over before a couple of minutes earlier.
This made my laugh,my mrs asked why i was giggling when i told her why even she laughed.:hehe:Quote:

Prior came over to apologise for a shite performance, at least he manned upQuote:

He said 'yes that's right!' and when the ref blew to start to second half, the guy clicks the remote device and the clock started on the sign screen!! Honestly.
The contradiction of the City emerging from the tunnel to ‘Simply The Best’ during our dungeon days. Always raised a chuckle in our corner of the Bob Bank.

Me and my lot’s place on the Bob Bank was right at the back in the corner by the Grange End. Very often there wasn’t another soul in front of us all the way down to the pitch. One game a City clearance reached us at the back, I kicked it back, one bounce on the terracing, over the fence and the Rochdale/Darlington/Hartlepool (it was someone like that) player caught it with a shout of “Cheers mate”. It was like someone getting the ball back over Pontcanna or The Racecourse.......although the standard was worse:hehe: ....and some fans moan at the way we play today :hehe:
i recall a kitchen fire at Ninian Park - where there was black smoke billowing while the game just carried on as normal

Games don't get much better.
I,m not sure but i think it wa Reading away. One young city fan was getting ejected and when asked why the steward said he was smoking. With that everone in the area lit up a fag. The steward was so confused he let the lad go.
Another strange thing.... he was our top scorer for a while:hehe:Quote:

I can't remember the player's name Let's call him "Smith", or even the team, but I believe he was a new-ish recruit to the away side at NP, he was on the wing by the bobbank, and he kept waving, like "pass to me", only for his team-mates to play elsewhere.
After this happened a few times, the whole bob bank went crazy, waving their arms in the air, chanting "let's all do the Smithy" (or whatever his name was)
Can anyone fill in the details?
The name was Leo.... and he played for us :biggrin:Quote:

Rather than ignore them he came over and tried opening the little gate that was behind the dugout into the enclosure. When he couldn't open it, he tried climbing over, only for the stewards to restrain him. Its fair to say that the Boro fans shit themselves and backed down from him. After this commotion a few of City's lads came into the enclosure, and the Boro fans left shortly afterwards. The one abiding memory I have was when the player was confronting them, he was rubbing his little general throughout!
