As for the worse on the old John Street near away fans late 80s every time Deane or Agana got the ball idiot at side of me said go on wog I actually said something to him then he sarcastically said go on mr Agana
 

Strafford as chairman of pigs when they were potless saying hed put children's hospital on shirts to show they were sound

then tried to sell the club for 5m pounds to some bogus us sports group, saying Wednesday would average 31500 in the championship with the right backing

he managed to stay in society and avoid a straight jacket somehow
 
This wasn't the worst incident I've witnessed, but probably the one that scared and disappointed me the most...

I'd been going to the Blades for a few years with my mates & decided to bring my old man to a game. He's Irish, supported Man Utd all his life, but had grown interested in Sheff Utd because of me. He loves his football & Tottenham were in town for a preseason friendly at the Lane.

Pretty sure a very young Jon Forte scored the winner. After the game, in the subway leading towards Decathlon, about 4 Blades nobheads (probably 18 - 23, I was about 14) asked my Dad who he supported -
"we're Blades pal" I said
"we're not asking you"
My Dad responded Sheff Utd & they proceeded to call him a liar, asked him to name our players, accused him of being an IRA cunt, told us to fucking jog on or we'd get our faces smashed in and then chanted no surrender from a distance.

I saw the same lads at away games for the next 10 years and always had revenge on my mind. Luckily I'm better than that.
 
Classless thing seen: Pissing in the sinks.
How many times witnessed: Countless.
Where: Every away match.
Culprit: Multiple United fans.

I try not to do things in public that I wouldn't want my employer seeing me do. Therefore, I have never pissed in a sink.
 
Always remember Jack Charlton saying something like “Sheffield United might need the honour of playing us, but we don’t need the honour of playing them”

Think we were in the division below them.

This it was when we suggested an annual pre season trophy to play for between the two clubs. Always stuck in my mind as pretty classless and disliked him ever since.

I remember Mrs NYB telling me that she'd walked in the ladies in the Green Man, one pof and there were half a dozen lads pissing in the sink.
Me neither

Don't know why but I've been thinking about this for a while because it must be coming up, when JC does pop his clogs should the who;e stadium sing No Pig Fans in Town, as a tribute? Should I have made this a poll?
 
West Ham in the days of the ICF, me and my mate were queuing up at the terrace side on John Street, game about to kick off they came around as always big boys just for the station, mate on crutches due to an operations on his knee (Knee replaced due to cancer) and attacked us! Completely out of order! Absolute cunts!
 


This documentary is a pretty good example of some of the worst behaviour you're likely to see at football games. England fans abroad, truly embarrassing. Very, very few of them can actually fight and are just bullies in large numbers. When it kicks off, it's all arms, legs, one step forward, couple backwards, posturing, throw a few missiles, run back behind the front line. Pathetic. In this documentary there are several examples of England fans picking on ordinary foreign fans who innocently think they're joining in with a party. One poor lad is punched in the face and has his glasses stolen. He asks the crowd for them back and instead they mock him and take a photo of his bloodied face on their camera phones.

I sympathise with the normal England fans that got caught up in the trouble in Marseilles, but justice was probably served to many of our compatriots at the hands of the Russians.

I saw lots of comments "our top boys all have banning orders, otherwise we'd have smashed them up." No you wouldn't. You overweight, middle aged, uneducated fuck wit. Being a chav & wearing certain clothing does not make you hard. Growing up under a tough regime, in harsh climates, with military service, gym work & fitness training does.


Great post 👏 👏 👏
 
Just before the Sportsman shut down I was in there after the match minding my own business with a mate having a pint and looking at the big screen.

I heard this short arse mouthing off effing and blinding at people as he walked through in front of the bar.

I turned to look at what the commotion was and caught his eye. Of course the hard man came over and started mouthing at me and tried to nut me.

It was like being hit with a feather duster, pathetically sad and weak.

I was leaving anyway, my mate had just walked out and so I just called him a effing wanker and left.

As I walked out the door I turned to see two or three of his mates supposedly holding him back. I just laughed at him and shook my head.

He and his little group were bbc I was later told. Well if that was them they are truly pathetic and spineless, wankers and classless, the short arse prick in particular.

I don't want to generalise here as it doesn't apply to every single one of them, and i'm sure a few post on here, but having worked on the doors in Sheffield for nearly 10 years (plus 3 years in Derby), and having run ins with members of the BBC on more occasions than I care to remember, I can honestly say that the majority are pretty soft as shit and are basically just a bunch of pack hunters. They're loud and brave when they're in a group but on their own aren't really anything to write home about.

To emphasise the point one of their "top boys" and his crew (not Steve Cowens) kicked off big time at a club I was working at one night when there was about 8 or 9 of them and he was right at the front giving it the big un about doing this and that to us. A few weeks later one of the lads that was on the doors with me that night (a proper hard man) saw said "top lad" walking near the peace gardens on his own and proceeded to knock ten bells out of him without breaking sweat.

I'm not trying to glamorise violence but just backing up what the poster above said.
 
Now don’t get me wrong, I fucking detest Terry Curran even when he played for us, but does anyone remember Tony Kenworthy spitting directly at him (could have been in his face if someone can confirm it). at the Lane when we drew 1-1 ? Not a great advert for football or SUFC.

I’ll await the abuse when you all say the gypo deserved it !! 😆

Terry used to be one of my customers in his current occupation and although he was an absolute waste of space in a red n white shirt and is blatantly still a grunter he's actually a pretty decent guy and has a wealth of knowledge about the game.

Didn't stop me relieving him of a few pints as he thought the pigs would win the bouncing day massacre 3-1.
 
Remember that. The huge stand behind the goal which is now occupied by home fans used to be an open kop split down the middle. Was either the 82/3 or 83/4 season and was like the battle of Hastings with the number of arrows. Plenty scored direct hits. Did anyone consider the risks of blinding people? Utter scum

They must have moved onto Darts it was snooker balls in the 81/82 season.
 
I will never cla

I would never claim to know everything about the bbc because I’ve never been actively involved but have been on the edges due to knowing a few and mixing in similar circles.

With every big firm you will get a mixed bag. Some lads game as anything some lads hard as anything and a few that will be somewhere in between. Others as you say will act up in a group but crumble at the first sign of 1-1

With that you will have different personalities. I know some of the lads who are the absolute top boys and others who are not nice people, blade they may be but not nice people.

Like anything in life you make your choices in people that you respect and befriend and people that you don’t

Funny you should mention that because I watched the match of the day highlights of that game on utube last week.
They had a fair old tussle shall we say bit of pushing, slapping, stamping, etc but no spitting that I saw. They interviewed them both after the match and spitting wasn't mentioned.

In the 4th division season I went to valley parade with my uncle who was known for being a tight sod. We paid to go behind the goal at the opposite end to the Blades fans as the home fans paid slightly less to get in. His plan was to go straight to the front and ask the police to let the 4 of us move to the away end as we had entered the wrong stand by mistake. Upon allowing us through the gate to be escorted round the Bradford fans realised and started throwing coins at us. 3 of us ran towards the side stand only to look back and see my uncle grovelling to pick the coins up that were being pelted at him. The copper sorting us out wasn’t too happy but my well pleased uncle reckoned he’d almost got his admission fee back as we took our place with the packed away end.
:rolleyes: 🤣
 
Beat them 2 - 1, if it's the game I remember. Mel Eves?
Silent Blade
I came down from Newcastle for this match , along with a few Leeds mates.

Without checking the crowd was around 21,000 , and I'd say there would be near on 9,000 Leeds there. They were definitely in the South Stand BL end in numbers.
 
Went on the right end at Bradford but somehow managed to go in in the Bradford end of that big split side. Another question to ask my father why he allowed that to happen. Bad parenting

Can’t temember the ins and outs as was only 10 years old but somehow managed to get put in with the blades fans just before kick off. I assume we asked the cops if we could move.

Cant remember whether it was the first or second goal but I was stood right at the front and a bit of a surge came down on top of me. I’m ashamed to say that I played a bit on the injury and got treat by the first aid guy on the gravel at the side of the pitch for several minutes.

If that old fella is reading this (doubtful for a couple of reasons) then I’d just like to say sorry for wasting your time and apologies that it’s taken me 38 years to confess
 
Just conscious that I’ve gone slightly off topic in replying to spongebobs post so to bring it back on topic it was a classless display from my dad to get me in with the Bradford fans and classless from me as a 10 year old to be an attention seeking little shit
 
What about them stupid Tie ups that Leeds wore int 70 round their socks . Classless or what. Saw a old clip the other day still looked embarrassing.
 
West Ham in the days of the ICF, me and my mate were queuing up at the terrace side on John Street, game about to kick off they came around as always big boys just for the station, mate on crutches due to an operations on his knee (Knee replaced due to cancer) and attacked us! Completely out of order! Absolute cunts!
Sorry to hear that, mate.
You're right, they were absolute cunts. I'm not proud of them.
 
Seem to remember Swansea fans trying to get across into John Street back in the Blackwell era around 08/09, our own fans kicking off with each other at Wembley in the Burnley Play off final and a bloke around the back end of Warnock's time calling someone a "black bastard", can't remember if it was one of our players or opposition, not that it matters
 
I remember us playing Man City, think Brown scored, and going down to get a drink with a friend at half-time (coke, because we were kids). The stewards had decided to lead some City fans out of the ground, through the South Stand, when all the idiots are lined up for another beer. They weren't far from the exit when suddenly everyone starts piling in to try and throw a shot at them. My resounding memory is watching some tosser pile in and punch another Blade in the back of the head, because presumably the goal is just to hit anything you can reach and say you're a hard man.

I've never understood it. I'm not a hard man, and I don't much like confrontation, but I've been involved in martial arts for most of my life and I can tell you if you like fighting then there's never been a better time with the rise of MMA to go out and find a place to do it. There's traditional martial arts, kickboxing, K1, BJJ, MMA, boxing, all full of lads who'll be happy to accommodate you. But they don't want that. They want sucker punches, glassing people from behind, and taking potshots while in a big group. They don't like fighting and they aren't good at fighting. They like hurting people and smashing things up because being seen as a hard man is far more important than being one.

Worlds End when Chelsea attacked it. Blades trying to get out at them crammed at the front door. Twat at the back throws a glass and hits another Blade on the back of the head.

Then all the windows came through.......
 
Forehead. My mates daughter.
Think it hit the roof and dropped into the crowd, not aimed directly at the crowd.
Scum nonetheless. Seem to remember he got arrested and a short stint in the nick followed but could be wrong.
 
Whoever the thieving bastard ‘Blade’ was who nicked my phone at the Hull semi-final while I was busy having a piss in Wembley.
Now I know, they might not be a fan & got a ticket with the intention of lifting as many phones as possible. Or they were a fan & a thieving twat into the bargain.
Either way, not classy.

I’m not sure that’s entirely true TBH.

I sit in the south stand and remember the incident to this day. It definitely landed straight in the top tier of the BLS.
