It was approximately 3-15pm the coach driver just told us to get the reg of the coach number plate, and told us where he would be parked after the game -
My older brother had the tickets there were blues everywhere outside (yet do not forget the fans in those days who went on spec for a tout ticket etc-
As my brother was looking for our turn style etc some blues just shouted doors open here, it was the exit doors been kicked in wide open so naturally with no one with or without tickets just panicked and piled in as we had already missed the start!
A big mistake the back of the Holt end was far too packed, crushing, fans being sick with the crush etc it was so packed we could not get into any viewing position till after the first half - there was IMO an excess of fans at the back of the holt end frightning TBH !
We left ten minutes from an awful game to locate the coach we heard a big roar - my brother asked who had scored, and that out the top hat on a miserable day!
