Great Crowd/Supporter Photos.

Love this picture, most of the crowd not bothered by the guy climbing the wire, the police not bothered either.

Could you imagine today? Game stopped, everyone out with their mobile phones, police, stewards and emergency services all over the place.

How about the fans on the roof!

It's ace isn't it. I just love the guy trying to shin up the wire as if it was the most natural thing in the world.

Most dangerous I ever saw were the guys outside Wembley for the 84 Milk Cup final when they were leaping from the drainpipes across to their mates hanging out the windows with their arms stretched out. Must have been two or three storey's up.

As bad as the bsseball ground where the old groundsman used to have to run on and paint the penalty spot

they got escorted around the pitch after the game there was that many outside the enclosure waiting for them,
there was only about 50-60 Everton up in the stand, believe it got quite hairy up there.
lucky enough i was below in the enclosure so missed it.

recall that road you walked down with all the corrogated iron fencing put up outside the houses, on the way out towards the train station, they used to sell the program out of the windows of the houses on the other side of the ground, like a paper about the size of the echo, good atmosphere as well.

My first "proper"away other than Wembley/semi finals was Man U,1981-82 season,I was 16, warmish night in September,we were on our way back to our old inconspicuous white Ford Transit vanlol after the game crossing that Salford Bridge when all hell broke lose,there was an arranged fight between their "firm" and ours set up as it turned out,it was all over the papers the next day,a Man U lad Jobe Henry(I've never forgotten the name)was slashed almost to death with a Stanley knife,I've never run as fast in my life it could have been so easy to get caught up in that as an innocent bystander,grim times,could have put me off for life.
