Who were they? They're a new one on me.
Personally I've never had any trouble with either Manc club but some of the worst violence I ever saw was a furniture van full of ManU supporters fighting each other.
We were in the Wolsley pre-match as usual when they turned up, probably 12 - 15 of them. Came in, ordered some drinks and everything was fine. After a while one of them started collecting for the driver / van etc, 1 lad gets up and went in the bogs. A few minutes later another lad went in to look for him and all f***ing hell broke loose.
The 1st lad comes running out covered in claret and the other lad runs out after him. The rest of them just started laying in to each other. Bottles, glasses flying everywhere. They were ushered out of the door and continued outside. Went on for a few minutes and the cops arrived, hauled most of them away.
There were only 2 of them left and the driver came back in the pub to get his keys which he'd left on the table.
Apparently the first 2 to start it were brothers and it turned out that the 1st lad had nee money with him, and was hiding in the bogs so he wouldn't have to chip in for the fuel / van. His brother went in to seek him out cos it wasn't the first time he'd done it, thats when it kicked off.
Can't remember exactly but the first lad had either is nose or his ear bitten off which was why he was covered in claret.
The pub was pretty full by then and we all just sat looking at each other in shock
I've got a feeling that it was the Clive Walker hat-trick day, great day for us, not so good for them daft fuckers.

The Black Angels were a Motor cycle club based in Amberley st Hendon . They featured in the film Tommy . They didn't put up with any shit like .Who were they? They're a new one on me.

Reminds me when after game I went for a wazz at KX station.
As I walked to the bogs , a lad stepped out of a group of lads and said "how mate, were u the lad in the Railway Telegraph almost naked with the lampshade on yer head and empty bottles of Bud in the waistband of your thong"?
As I was about to deny everything, he said "mate, that was one of the funniest things I've ever seen"!! He then turned to his mates and said " how lads, this is the lad from the RT", cue much laughter and praise
!Another brilliant day/weekend almost spoiled by the match !!

I was back home last week for my uncles funeral. He was a diehard red n white and a bit of a character to boot. At the wake afterwards some of the old tales started to come out. Not football-related but definitely in keeping with the spirit of this thread...
There was a bus trip away from Murton Big Club to Paris. After 18 hours on the bus and one hour sightseeing my uncle and his mate decide it is time for a few pints. They look around a bit but can't see any obvious watering holes so they go up to one of those tobacco stands and ask the bloke in their best mangled French 'have-ay vous un club?'. 'Oui Monsieur, we ave many many clubs. We ave le disco club, le strip club, le gambling club'. 'Champion' says my uncle then reaching into his wallet he pulls out his Big Club card and says 'vous have-ay le CIU'???
Shortly after he started down the pit the foreman pulled him to one side. He pointed out that in the previous month my uncle had worked four days in week one, four days in week two, four days in week three and four days in week four. He asked for an explanation to which my uncle replied 'aye thing is, if I only worked three days I wouldn't be able to turn out every night'.

Even the name 'Kippax' makes me shudder to this day.
The first time I ever went would've been around 1973 as an 18 year old on the service bus from Mansfield ..... f***ing horrible day out.
None of the other lads would go so I got into Manchester on my own and had to find the ground without giving the game away.
I ended up in that endless maze of terraced streets near the ground dodging gangs of City skinheads ...... it was like playing a fucked up version of PacMan.
At one point I was trapped with 2 lots coming from either end of the street.
There was a house with scaffolding etc so I stepped through the fence, put on a discarded hard hat and started stacking house bricks
I thought that if they spotted me I'd at least have some ammo.
They met right by the building site and I could hear everything they were saying about Sunderland supporters they'd encountered.
Incredibly they drifted off and I wandered off to the ground, still in my hard hat ..... I kept it for years as a souvenir

What happens in HK, stays in HK.
TBF you were extremely discombobulated when you bumped into me and @Thatmackem in Devil's Advocate - it was around 1pm, we were just starting, you were finishing from the night before.
