    20 years on

    My old man used to park down the bottom of Hillfields and we’d walk up past the Vauxhall to Paynes Lane before stopping next to Ladbrokes to buy almost a 1/2 pound of wine gums from the elderly couple in the shop on the corner by the bookies. Everyone coming past had either a donkey jacket on...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs Leeds United - Match Thread - Weds 5th Feb 7.45pm KO

    Strong chance many of us will be sitting next to a Leeds "fan". Growing up in the early 70's most of us were sat next to a Leeds fan at primary school. I spot quite a few who changed their allegiance to the Sky Blues, but when ever i see them , i still think "Leeds fan" !

    Sheffield Wed Away Tickets

    Anyone else remember being there in the night game in 84 in the FA cup when we lost 3-2 South Yorkshire police corralled us in that passageway under the Leppings Lane stand . One of the few times I’ve been really worried at football and that was when travelling away came with its own weekly...

    Hull away support

    I was one of the 300 odd, that night , when Wise scored in front of us, My Mrs was in the east stand following Hull, and I remember practising my neutral face in the reflection of the car in Walton street for about 5 mins , so as not to look too smug when she got there . I thought I’d got it...

    Boxing Day

    I’m another that never had a soft spot for Liverpool and their fans. First place I had a blade pulled on me at a match . A nothing game at Anfield on a bank holiday Monday which I think we lost 5-0, started with some tramp in his Adidas uniform waving his favourite toy around as we came out of...

    Channel 4 tonight at 10

    I didn’t know anyone with any animosity or hatred of Sunderland until a few years back. Always have a grudging nod of respect for any fans like theirs who usually travel in numbers and win nothing . First game I ever saw on a colour TV was the 73 cup final when Sunderland beat Dirty Leeds ...

    Where were you...

    🏆 This day 37 years ago 🏆 7:45am on the way to Anderton’s cash and carry warehouse on the Stoney Stanton Rd, To buy 96 cans of lager for the journey down to Wembley ⚽️( between 5 of us in the car ) Those 96 , included 12 for the driver 🚙 looks a little irresponsible in hindsight !
