Best time you ever had in S6?

That's true about Young, he cost them the '66 cup final

Talking about walking to the sty from town, anyone else remember gathering on the Peace gardens to walk to Hillsboro, Easter 1971?

It was the days of Harrington jackets and Doc Martens - must have been over a 1000 including some Rovrum fans who joined us

Peace Gardens, Easter? Irony was obviously alive and well!

23rd April, 1975. Pigs 0 v Aston Villa 4. Villa were promoted from League Division 2 on this day and took thousands (and Wednesday's kop). At the end, we all invaded the 'pitch', I made my way to the centre spot and pissed on it!

Also, dunno if it counts but I had plenty of 'best times' with a tart off the Cross. I think most of the estate did.

In actual fact, grafikhaus, the Villa and Blades fans didn't need to 'take' the Kop that day; SWFC surrendered it. After the high jinks earlier that season when Man U turned up at the Sty with over 20,000 and ran amok on both ends of the ground, the club advised Pig fans attending the game (of which there were typically 7-8,000 in the mid-70's) to go in the North and South stands for the Villa game, in order to avoid a repeat.

The advent of segregation in the late-70's was a god-send for the Filth. Up until then, countless clubs routinely used to go to Hillsborough and take the mickey. They had a big terrace that they were simply unable to defend with the puny numbers they were getting through the gate. Any club turning up with a decent following could help themselves to the 'hump' on the Kop.

Leeds did it once AFAIR. They occupied about 3/4 of the kop from about ten minutes before kick off right up to ten minutes after full time, singing throughout with a line of SYP keeping them from the hapless pigfans.

Now THAT is humiliation.

You're probably not quite old enough. I was only 9 but have vivid memories of the occasion. Pele was past it on his second visit unfortunately.

There you go. I didn't realise that he had been twice! I am 60 so probably not old enough for the first time. Thsnks Snooty.

Mike Trebilcock...Sheffield United legend

First heard of him before we played at Pompey in the 3rd round of the FA Cup in 1971 when my dad pointed out Trebilcock's name in the match programme and he explained that he scored two goals for Everton against Wendy in the 1966 FA Cup Final so I thought highly of him. I stopped thinking highly of him when he scored Pompey's 2nd goal in the 2-0 defeat which knocked us out of the FA Cup. It was a long and miserable journey home on the train! On arriving back in Sheffield station, the shock news of the Ibrox tragedy had come to us

To be fair, the pigs had a couple of hundred on the kop that day - in the bottom-left as you look at the pitch. Fair dos, they were as game as fuck but benefitted from being protected by the police.

Don't worry, you'll not get too many occasions where you can say you are "not old enough" at 60!

Like a lot of others,its got to be the Singing in the Rain 3-1 romp,however i wish i had been there when Ian Bowyer scored twice to relegate Wednesday in April/May 1970

Fortunately I was at both. Remember vividly leaving the ground after the "Davison" game to the strains of "We beat the scum 3-1". As for the "Bowyer" game, he was the only City player interested but it was enough against a very very poor pigs outfit.

Wasn't that 2-0 defeat sandwiched in between three 5-1 wins over Pompey over two seasons ?

Both Lily's and Beres are excellent. Nowhere does pork like S6....

Try Banner Crust at Banner Cross. They do it far better.

This thread has proved scientifically that having sex in S6 is more enjoyable than watching football there. A minority have managed to attend matches where the opposite is true, but these are infrequent occurrences.

Nah. I know it's Wisewood, but its definitely the wrong end of town to be copulating. I had to have a wheelbarrowful of blue diamonds and a pencil, rubber-banded up the side of the old bed-cosh. She stank. I don't know if it was actually bacon, or bacon, cheese and other McDonald's products like gerkhins and salt. My sister's Sierra had those crappy velour seats, so the farting noises emanating during the act weren't the upholstery. Afterwards she got out to answer a call of nature (I hoped) and it sounded like the car was surrounded by a herd of buffalo. Buffalo who'd been drinking gallons and gallons and gallons of lager and eating tons of sprouts. When I drove away, my offside wheel dug into that and spun briefly and I had to call in at a Mosborough all nite garage on the way back to get it hosed off the wheel trims and side windows. It looks like I'd hit a sewage farm.

But I took one for the team.

I was there, on the kop with a mate amongst the Villians. I got twated by a Villa fan after the game while waiting for our bus home outside Herries Road bus garage, the cunt also knicked my silk Villa scarf which my mate had knicked from Suggs especially for that game!

 

[Tynemouth Blade]

I went with my (Wednesdayite) father in law when it was Carlton Palmers debut for the Pigs, I think it was against Milwall (?) His first touch, if you can call it that, was to jump to head a ball which actually hit him on the knee!
The rest as they say is history - the worst 'footballer' ever to pull on an England shirt!

Shall have to give that one a go mate. Must admit though, I do love a Beres/Lily's sandwich. Ritas Pantry (North Church Street) and Dane's (London Road) also do good uns.
