I never saw nowt mate.
Got to Shrews at 1.20 pm- plenty of OB about in Town outside the pubs.
Went in Spoons and it emptied after we got in.
OB had all gone up the ground seemingly when we left at 2.30.
Walked back after the game to the Station, saw no one.
I was in the fullwell, fairly central, they were no more than 10 yards from where I was. Had no clue till we heard “United” shouted a couple of times. Remember just being confused then a gap opened up alongside us and there were I’d say maybe 50 max, mags. Afew skirmishes and a few slapped about but they were quickly bundled down towards the pitch and onto the track. Main man was a well known Washington fella I believe.Nowt like 150
I was at the game in the clockstand paddock
They got pelted with coins when they passed
Probably around 50 - 70

A group that size could have potentially chased Sunderland fans out of their own end.
Iirc the crowd was very low that year for a derby game
How long did that take mate walking from ground to station?
YipJK ?
Is he still with us?
I’ve seen him walking his dog odd times when I’m down there. Be a canny age now.Is he still with us?
Last time I saw him was outside the cross keys arguing with a lad then they went into the car park, the cap never came off.
And police intelligence knew nothing about the bus trip.So 50 Mags turned up on a bus trip and No Shrewsbury were interested
Only about 28,000 there and they had about 8,000.
11-30 am kick off on a Easter Monday.
The whole thing was weird. Was near the front heard a roar and they filed out from the right and onto the pitch.
All a bit surreal as nobody knew what was going on until they actually got onto the cinder track.
Don't think a punch was thrown from either side.
80-100 there.
Clockstand lobbed coins through the fence at them walking past.
All a bit of a non event really.
Game was appalling 0-0 no shots from either side from memory.
Back at school in Birtley after the Easter Holidays and about 20 Maggots in my year reckoned they were in there..
Indeed at least 70, don’t make them like him anymore, he’d laugh at today’s boyo’s.I’ve seen him walking his dog odd times when I’m down there. Be a canny age now.
30,000 of them in a 29,000 gate i believe!The number of mags I’ve spoken to over the years who reckon they were at the Gillingham game..fkn gobshites man.
