I'm afraid you are wrong there; the great mass of us, hooligans and regular Joes did wear scarves in 1980. But away fans who went in a home end would keep them hidden until they decided the time was right.

Yeah I recognise the truth in that account but time has messed with his estimates of numbers. Cut every number quoted by 50% apart from the 50 BHA in the Holmesdale which is about right.

Yes, I highly recommend The Stuffed Eagle down No-Hope Lane...

Don't you go worrying about wonky roofs as there won't be any new roofs to worry about. I'm sure a planning application will go in for a totally unrealistic site which won't get approved, and after relegation you won't be able to raise the finance. So you can look forward to many more years...

Oh OK I'll tell my brother that he's dead to me...

Agreed that calling your child "mate" is very annoying, but so is the expression "love them to bits" - what does that even mean?

Errrr...I presume the 13 year old in his Chelsea shirt would be supporting Chelsea?

Taking your question at face value my response is...no, it is not a good idea even at the age of 13 to wear an opposition shirt in the home end. 13 is not too young to learn about discretion and how to conduct yourself in different social settings.

Explain? Being an EU citizen does not alter your nationality.

Yeah but he's right...

Another Turkey voting for Christmas...

Well expect big queues when you can't go through the "EU Citizens" gate in 27 other countries anymore...

You called yourself a skinhead, but it sounds like the only box you tick is having a crop...

Having a number 1 does not make you a skinhead, and Gabber has nothing in common with the original British skinhead scene circa 1969/70. I cite the following evidence: 1. hair - skinheads had short crops but not necessarily ultra short 2. clothes - skinheads made a lot of effort with their...

No, do I look like a moron? My favourite recollection of the skinhead revival was at Selhurst Park in 1978. About an hour before kick-off us Brighton fans were congregating on the top half of the Whitehorse Lane terrace when in filed about 20 boneheads in flight jackets, bleached jeans and...

Trouble is Block Zzzz is that your above statement is just parading your own personal prejudices - the people you generalise about are more a figment of your imagination. Of course there are some who might fit your description, but you are surely aware that the left is a spectrum as of course...

I sit near the back of WSU and so have a view of a vast expanse of roof...last Sunday I didn't notice them looking green or darkened; it was perfectly bright.

Are you volunteering to clean them?

But surely that is the point of being a "leftie"; you take things seriously, you think about and challenge things that are wrong and don't just smugly sit back and accept that the Rupert Murdochs and Barclay brothers of the world deserve all the wealth while the vast majority graft for minimal...

Fair play to the NSK, they do a good job - keep up the good work. I don't think the Police Box Crew are singing less I just think that the main section of the North Stand has got its act together this season. And please, whoever bangs on the back wall of the North Stand at corners can you do...
