I got the train over from Heworth, the coppers at Seaburn asked for NUFC to make themselves known - most of the passengers were mags - there was only a handful of SAFC on that train and I had no idea we were among them lot so they can't have been showing colours.
The had a few in the Gillingham end (100 or so I reckon) and were given one small section in the Clock Stand Roker side - probably about 200 in there.
at last a mackem speaks the truth...this was exactly what happened on our train. We didn't make ourselves known so don't know what happened to those that did...was worried they might send us straight back home. We went in the fullwell end untill some time just after kick off after we heard the blaydon races from the clock stand paddock. We told the fuzz we werer mags and had been threatened (we were only 14). They took us thru the clock stand under the seats to the far end and we went down into the paddock. Couldn't see how big the paddock was but I know one thing, it was f***ing rammed. Took ages to get down to the front
Remember it vividly mate, I was shocked at Seaburn station. I remember the mags and Gillingham fans lauding it up together at us.
I was in the Mainstand paddock Roker side. They were opposite me in the clockstand paddock, not that many but they were definitely there unfortunately.
Yep I remember this too - I was probably so raging thats why I can still remember it now.
clock stand paddock roker end, in corner near the gillingham fans with more gillingham fans behind us in the seats. Anyone who denies this (as many have on here including wally)...was not there
What happened after the game, was there a lot of bother, or did the Police ensure that the Skunks were held well back after the final whistle?
we were held back for a good while then escorted to seaburn station. Some fans were singing "ha ha ha he he he sundlands in division 3" but the police were going off it with them saying we are here for your own safety
