Quoted from The Yard Dog
Did we have to wait 20 minutes after the game to let out, standing in water about 4 inches deep, my kickers were soaked.
Did some of the coaches have their windows smashed in?

It was mad at Hartshead Moor services that night coming home.

This game remains in my memory as one of the best away games for me, for many reasons.

For you young ones the old 2nd division = Championship division, those were the days.


Yeah, there were a few coaches had their windows put through, I reckon there must have been about 80 coaches all parked along Stanley Park that night.

A window on ours got put through as we were escorted out, a cold wet journey home for all of us that were already soaked to the skin from being on the open terrace....didnt take an ounce out of the enjoyment of the night though

Always used to back in those days. There was no such thing as an "away kit" then. You had a "change strip" which you only wore when there was a colour clash.

I remember the game well, they absolutely dominated, but who cares, goals win games, the rain was absolutely pouring down, I got absolutely soaked, as did everybody else, I remember the town team coach getting mobbed at the service station on the way home aswell,

They were the days

Aaron...it was THIRTY-TWO years ago. You must be a lot older than you look/sound...


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

I was one of the youths stood on the broad bar at the back of the lower terrace, you can see us all jump off going mental. Remember a police horse going far as we were penned in afterwards and the services were only bettered by Peterborough back in May

Got covered in vandal paint soaked wet through chased by a load of scallies outside the ground but afternoon off school to see the Mariners beat at the time the best team in Europe and the noise the Town fans made coming out the ground was unreal.
