Toughest game of the season, no doubt. Will need to be at our best and them to have an off day if we're to get anything. Their forum (hiya over there by the way, we know you're watching to see if we're saying any nasty things) weren't happy with their second half display against Stoke so it's possible
Probably toughest away game for a while, big crowd, good atmosphere and plenty from city there. I’ve a personal vendetta against these, when I was 11 years old my dad got me the brand new city scarf, I wore it with pride got bus from Bransholme, a massive gang of Sheffield Utd fans walking past the bus stop as I got off with my mates, one grabbed my scarf from around my neck said I’ll have that and off it went into the distance. I’ve looked for him ever since and I will be doing the same again on Friday. I still remember his ugly face so I’m hoping he hasn’t changed, mind you it was 47 years ago however if he’s reading this I am still looking and eventually I will find him. Come on City.
The same thing happened to me jb in 1975 or 76..and i have hated them ****s ever since.....so come on city do it for me and jb !!!! And not forgetting Norman b!!!!!
Same thing happened to me in 1974 when I was 11, c'ept I was on Bunkers and the much older and bigger bully was a City fan. :-(
Always remember been jumped by about 10 of them near Calvert lane after we had beaten them think 3-1 approx 1980. Ended up hit with a rock or something. They where flat track bullies for too long until city’s lads got wise and all met in New York Bar to walk down together. Different that day for sure. Not really involved in aggro as such but was pleased to see the bastards get a bit back that day. Not encouraging violence at football.
Anybody got tips for parking? Street somewhere walkable? Taking my 10 and 7 year olds to their first away game, got seats right on the end so they should hopefully enjoy it without being too scared!! In hindsight I've probably picked the wrong game for their first away match but they need to learn, no room for soft people in this household!
Not particularly bothered about them, despite my outburst further up. Can understand the older lot (which is most on here tbf) not liking them very much due to clashes on and off the pitch in the 70s and 80s though.
