Malice in Sunderland (Bristol City FC Forum)


Malice in Sunderland was a chapter in the book Hoolifan-30 Years Of Hurt by Chelsea fan Martin King largely about the trouncing Chelsea's mob got at Sunderland on the first day of the 75-76 season at Roker Park. A previous thread on here in 2020 explained:

I absolutely despise Chelsea Football Club. Forget the likes of Coventry, Bristol City and Leeds, who I'm ambivalent about these days. CFC is a truly horrible club with a lot of horrible 'fans'. I've hated them ever since the QF game at RP in '92. Imagine a club chairman (Master Bates, the wanker) defending his club's hooligans!

Shithouse of a club then, shithouse of a club now.
 
Why did Pearson get sacked?

Remember the story/urban myth of SAFC fans catching a chelsea fan, dumping him in a bin, and trying so set him alight? Before/after the 1985 milk cup match.

They're a bit racist too. Loads of instances in recent times. Can't be just one or two bad eggs at this point.

Hasn't really been that spectacular but not awful either.

Sounds similar to the lass glassed by a Mag the day we played Stoke in League Cup, in the 90's.

You are not keen are you. Bet you love John Terry
 
In the very late 70s/ early 80s, quite a few clubs fans were put in 2/3 sections of the CS if their turn out wasn't enough to warrant their presence on the RE.
Boro were one of them as footage shows when Jankovic scored the winner circa 81.
Also, Chelsea in 79/80 when the late Tim Gilbert got the winner.
I'm sure Everton were put in there opening day of season 80/81 too

Plenty more problems were to follow esp on the opening day of the 79/80 season {Earls Court renovation},
