Bloody thugs running in to the family stand...
What a nightmare.
We all knew it would kick off though Lacey, we were even talking about it at the Arsenal Babies match last night.
They really should have been more on the ball regarding the security and segregation - everyone knew that Upton Park tube would be a major flashpoint
I get why they really won't crack down on the segregation thing...Mr L said it was being discussed on the club footie forums last night too.
My first ever Arsenal v Spurs at Highbury match of memory, I was about 8... I remember people spitting at each other when you had to walk down the tube and the away fans were separated by a metal barrier... but we all walked next to each other....I was petrified and my dad shouted at them to stop being disgusting coz he had us girls with him!
Dunno why I wrote that lol! Just a trip down memory Lane!
I was at the Hawthorns in 1982 when Leeds wrecked our ground, I was 16 years old and it was the first time me and my mate had been allowed to go to a night match on our own, it was a treat for us because it wasn't long before we left school.
That night I have NEVER been so scared at a football match and I have been to Villa and Wolves local derbies.
We were sheltered from the worst of it because 2 blokes took pity on us, and they told us to get out of the ground and run down Halford Lane towards where the police would be, we did this and had to go through some Leeds fans who thought it was funny to steal 2 small teenage girls scarves and spit on us, I have never been so glad to see a policeman as I was that night.
