Wembley 1990 for me. 4 of us hitch-hiking.
Playing cards in the sun under the shadows of the twin towers, and Bobby Moore handing over the shiny thing.
Just perfect really.

Yes; Bolton and Woking.

'Remember The Woking' used to be sang in The Holker End. Total canage down there, that day. I was on that train that traveled to Euston. It was Bedlam! Cans of Beer and bottles of Spirits were being sold for peanuts. Apparently someone had done an Off-License the night before. A few of the lads had had some powder and pills too. I remeber Der*k Wa****r pulling the wash basin off the toilet wall and flooding the train. There was a whip round to pay for the damage. Euston to Waterloo and then walking round Woking like we owned the spot. Bonny! Then chasing Wolves across Euston before we set off back home.

Bolton's mob waiting for us outside the ground. Didn't have long to wait! Plod had to open the gates as we were kicking them down to get at em. Fisticuffs all the way to the station then hugs all round as we knew we'd stood our ground.

Anyone remember Frickley? Getting chased by irate miners and their dogs with the police close behind!
B** M****r trying to persuade the coach driver to make a detour to Pontefract to free one of our boys who'd been nicked by the Yorkshire plod.
Then a police escort at the front and back of our coach all the way home to The Steelworks. Some Crew!

It's not the same game, these days, is it? :lol:
