    Probably or FC from Hornsea? I honestly cannot remember if the fence was up or not but knowing City it probably was.

    There was plenty of west ham who walked from station along Anlaby road, as said I was only a kid a saw things I'd never seen before in such numbers. Skinheads, shiny docs, half mast jeans, scarf tied to the wrist. Some things from 50 years ago you remember like yesterday but can't remember what you did yesterday.

    Tiptoe through the Kempton,
    with your boots on,
    get your heads kicked in so,
    tiptoe through the Kempton with me

    I only heard FC had passed away last year. Is John O still around? The fence was put up at end of 1971/1972 season I think. Took my wife to be for her first game, the Pearson 4 goals against Portsmouth in the 1972/1973 season and I am sure it was there then. Think they put one fence up and sometime later replaced it with a sturdier one.

    This thread needs to be re-titled. Down our way.

    After that WHU game I was walking through Paragon Station when the biggest black guy I had ever seen (who seemed somewhat pissed off about something), offered me out.

    Naturally, I declined the offer.

    Hmmn.
    I was there back in those days on Bunkers.
    What was funny was us singing those songs at away fans who's "rum lads" typical outnumbered us x times over.
    When it came to the final whistle, most times it was us lot trying to navigate a way to steer clear of the away fans, who often came in their thousands. Alright for a lot of you who lived in Hull, but some of us had to get back to Paragon and then on our train still alive. Hairy times, but a buzz.

    Of course there was always the "Sack the board" song to fall back on when things weren't going well.

    Remember a Sheff Utd match in the early 80,s. Good turn out in Kemptom with the wooden fence ( only chest high) between big sets of lively chaps. Word was as the teams came out the blades were going to get egged.
    Come the teams coming out egg missiles took to the air and splashed many a head to the rather angry response from the South Yorkshire visitors.
    Genuinely don’t think I laughed so much at a match.
    Surprisingly they were still a tad pissed off after the match.
    Great great days.

    I had that experience a few times as a youngster..

    Never in the field of human conflict was a train back to Driffield so welcome and safe:emoticon-0103-cool:

    Then I came up here and had to negotiate my way around the East End of Glasgow,after an old firm match, without bumping into hordes of Celtic nutters...:emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Forest taking Bunkers a couple of times in the mid-70s was entertaining but the "best" scrap I saw at BP in those days was the cup match against West Ham just inside the station turnstiles.

    A few Forest came on Bunkers but they didn’t take it. The only lot who got right across were Wednesday, Leicester and Man City in the Cup game. Though before the fence went up the Blunts, Boro and Sunderland always had a fair few on there as did Bolton, Blackburn and a few others.
