    One of the worst away days over the years for me, place is an absolute dump and the surrounding areas about as welcoming as a fart in a tent.

    Only time I have been and kind of enjoyed it was the quarter final in the cup, I think Tommy Smith scored, Im sure it was extra time because we didnt get home till about 5 the next morning and I was at work that day.

    Birmingham, at home, were a nasty bunch weren't they.

    We came out at the same time, after one game, and they were going for anyone in red&white ...

    ... one lad, about 16, had his jaw broken.

    We'd usually jump in, with such situations, but just kept our heads down.

    We went off on our own once, 3 off us, we were given some "advise" by this big black lad to f**k off and quickly. I am a big lad at 6"4 and I was looking up his nostrils.
    We took his advise and headed off to the ground with our tails between our legs, we were told when we got off the bus to stick together but thought we knew better. Was glad when we got to the ground I must admit.

    First person I asked didn't say no and suggested Birmingham might release more tickets.

    They're trying to fill their ground, by giving away tickets but they're struggling <laugh>

    Keep the faith mate.
