I was drinking in Low Fell the night before that match and a few Mags showed me their Fulwell End tickets so I knew there was a few going to be in there. I was in the Fulwell End for the game, Just to the right of the Scum and as soon as the "United" chant went up they started getting kicked to fuck and legged it to the right and down onto the pitch in panic.

The full length of The Clock Stand went mental as the Scum legged it down that side of the pitch towards the rest of the Scum in the Roker End. They were absolutely bricking it going past the Clock Stand and don't let any of the lying Scum tell you otherwise.

Mags er, 'legging' it up the side of the pitch. :lol:

Oh, and all of them skinheads looking like they were released from Belsen! :lol:

Look at the front of the queue, they're shitting their pants despite all the polis.

You've just been exposed as a liar mate. You obviously weren't there or you've just got a bad memory.

As for those at the front, simply avoiding coins. Not high value ones obviously.

Neither was the lad quoted in the OP. Even with hearsay you'd think he could get one fact right about that afternoon.
 
finally read the whole first post after laughing too much. The dozy twat does not realise Roker Park is gone as him and 50 of his facebook mates are to repeat 'taking the fulwell'. Is the mental health service in the north east good as he clearly needs help
 
Was stood right next to the that day the shout went up and they bolted to get on the pitch not more than a dozen punches were thrown in the whole incident-that is a big FACT
 
I was there too! Do not re-call anything regarding an NME chant, thats bullshit, as is most of the tool's article. There was a chant of United, and a surge forward of the crowd. My younger brother was crushed against one of the barriers by the surge, fortunately nowt serious, but being a bairn he was shook up. There was nowt like the war this tool describes, they were out of the Fulwell End as quick as they could. I re-call one of the wankers getting properly stretched out on the ash track while being escorted by the police. Don't re-call any attempt of an arms aloft lap of honour, but i do remember them getting into "their" part of the Roker as quickly as they could! The bloke is making his story out like they took Hamburger Hill or summat. Load of fabricated, and as usual, deluded, shite!

I can remember one of their buses being parked on the waste ground behind the Wheat Sheaf and Barclay Court area, and three of them getting off for a piss. There was a group of Sunderland charged the bus, and the lads on the bus locked the doors locking their "marra's" out! Those three took a right pasting, don't see owt writen about that, locking their mates out of the bus! I was only a boy, on my way home after this game, and was admittedly like a rabbit caught in the headlights watching this happen! Actually felt sorry for the ones that got "left" by their brethren!

The bloke is simply another mag jackanory and nowt else.

Haway man, you know that's bollocks.

Surely you know its a fact that mag fans have never ever ever come off worse against Sunderland fans:lol:

I was there that day, I witnessed darts, coin, bricks/stones and steel balls from ballbearings thrown.

Incredibly brave stuff from a wonderful set of fans (not)

and yet the local papers blame Sunderland fans for most of the bother it was August 31 1968

worse was to follow in April 1970
 
what a disturbing bit of writing ; feels uncomfortably like masturbatory material for particularly inadequate Newcastle fans..

27 March 1970 to be exact!
 
Has anyone mentioned we had not reached the milk cup final 2 weeks before? If my memory serves me right this game was over the christmas/new year and the milk cup semis in January?

unfortunately, he is correct.

Milk Cup final - March 1985

derby game EASTER MONDAY [APRIL] 1985

the lad that wrote it is typical of all the other hoolie book writers - embellishment with a capital E is the order of the day

but at the end of the day, they were game enough to go in with just 200

I bow to your superior knowledge;)
 
Just found this shite on a link that was posted earlier. :oops: :oops:

that's f***all. 1642 beat them at Boldon hill then sacked their city and handed it over to the jocks. probably raped the geordie women anarl so there's a good chance most geordies are descended from mackems anyway.

I just Googled 'Good Friday 1970'!
 
A topic that is, ahem, particularly challenging for followers of either SAFC or NUFC supporter to comment on with any objectivity.

i was at the game, a dour 0-0 draw on easter Monday 1985. i was in the Mainstand seats, so looking down into the fulwell.

Recollection is:



They did make themselves known about 5 minutes into the game. They were surrounded by coppers fairly quickly. Was looking from a distance but there did appear to be some scuffling before they were surrounded.

The coppers actually pulled out 3 or 4 of them ahead of all others. These 3 or 4 were marched out along the cinder track next to the Clockstand and looked like they were then taken out of the ground (nicked? ringleaders?) through the gap between the Clockstand and the Roker End scoreboard.

The coppers then marched the rest of them (200ish probably right) back into the Roker End to much applause from their lot. They went past the clockstand and were getting hit with a shitload of missiles, and 1 or 2 actually went on the deck from them.

At that time, the Clockstand and Mainstand paddocks both had high fences up (these were up for 2 or 3 seasons in the mid 80's and then taken down, although curiously the ends were never fenced).

Had the clockstand not been fenced that day, may have been a tad livelier as my recollection is that our more volatile element tended to go in the clockstand paddock in that era.

The level of actual 'aggro' in the Fulwell seemed minimal, particularly compared to the free for all in the roker end the season after v Millwall when there were Darlo fans in the Roker End and it seemed to go off for several minutes big style before the coppers got a handle on it.

But for theatrical effect, I suppose you have to begrudgingly acknowledge the mags created a little 'scene' that day which they could seek to subsequently mythologise. Plus don't recall anyone else pulling a similar stunt so was conspicuous I suppose).

Another recollection of that day was that before kick off their lot in the Roker End were belting out "We love you Norwich, we do" (it being shortly after the Milk Cup final defeat), and one of the fuckers even holding aloft a yellow scarf!:lol: Not obsessed, like!
 
Missed it. I was watching the match. It was poor.

To be perfectly honest, I've seen bigger fights between the townies and village lads than I saw that day ............ there was a big brawl during our match against Brighton and the 250 away fans must have wondered what the fuck was going on.
