A rather odd thing occurred at the end of the White Hart Lane game - when the police held the City fans back, it soon became noticeable that there was a group of about 5-6 blokes (certainly not youngsters!) who nobody recognised, a few were with their girlfriends too.
It turned out they were Millwall and had come to support the City (so they said ), I think they probably came along out of curiosity to what could have been a flashpoint fixture.
Anyway, they persuaded the police to let them out after about 15 minutes. Well, it turns out that Spurs fans were still waiting outside the ground and you could hear the commotion when the gate was opened to let that small pocket of Millwall out.

I think it was the longest I had ever been held behind in the ground in all my away days.
