Gloucester City away FA Cup

Bedlam

Ps I'm fully aware talksport is generally sh!ye but I do enjoy the jonny owen show.

Fulham 1993

More than I care to remember.

Are coach car parks one of the same ?

Orient away 88…..carnage chasing West Ham fans out of the ground

For some reason last game of the season at home to Barnet.
Don't know why I remember that for any significance.

I remember there was a pitch invasion for Eddie Newtons loan coming to an end :hehe:

Swansea away around 85.

Hundreds invaded from behind the goal opposite where our main gathering was.

Yes that's the type of thing we talking about!

A 4-2 Friday night win at Colchester, our fans on the pitch after every goal it seemed like. Nigh on a full invasion for Neil Matthews’ cracker.

Enfield. Aithough less of an invasion and more of getting away from the crush .

Idiots the lot of them.

torquay

I remember a half arsed pitch invasion for some reason in Ninian Park. Rumour was there was an invasion to happen, about four of us ran on from Block A, got as far as Andy Legg, realised it was a bad idea and headed back to my seat. 😅

Still can’t remember why.

Being a massive knobber at that time, I was one of the knobheads who took part in that due to an influx of Stella and nursing a thick lip some West Ham fan and given me before the game.

Easily recognisable due to my clothing choice for the evening too.

Got home early hours on a Saturday morning, still under the influence of alcohol and acid to receive a severe bollocking from my mother who had conveniently seen HTV news.

Was interesting in Paddington after the game , Middlesbrough were around after playing Reading …..

Was that a League cup game on August Bank Holiday in the early 80s? That was mental. I think they had one fan left in their end 🤣🤣🤣

West Ham v Chelsea was also in that day but called off for some really strange reason on the day….hence groups of West Ham fans coming to orient and Chelsea in Paddington. Felt nice to get home that day

I think we needed to win to get to Wembley didn’t we ?

And in true CCFC style ......we didn't

My memory of the mid 70s when I was a small kid was we used to cross from the bobbank to the enclosure after the end of every game mainly because it was quicker than walking around the canton or Grange.
Does anyone else remember that ?

I remember it well but it wasn't exactly an invasion. I recall having trouble getting over the wall in order to gain access to the pitch and also the fact the pitch seemed much bigger when you were on it.

Lincoln away in 83 ?

Our lot got a leathering

Goodness me

I was wearing Stone Island , seems to be mainstream now though

It’s a very sobering thought that the Colchester game in question was nigh on 30 years ago:yikes: Jesus, my first game was 31 years before that Layer Rd trip. Amazing how long something that you very often loathe, berate, ridicule can last so long in your make up. And they reckon drugs are addictive!!!!!!!
