Southampton Trouble

[7:18]

As I was walking back to the station after the game, heard lots of screams and shouts and saw police running towards a large group of "supporters", took one brief picture before some young southampton mug pushed me and told me to put the camera away...anyone else see this group?

 

[Half Man Half Biscuit]

Nothing happened. Their fans were having a run-around with the police whilst ours were held back in a pen.

 

[London Pompous]

It was nothing serious, some of their pups wanted to see who was top dog on the south coast. Few calls were made during the week, nods and winks between top boys. Our kid formed a skeleton crew, but respect to them, they asked some of us old lags to come out of retirement to show them the ropes.

Big Vern, Peacehaven Pete, Scratchcard, Dave the Armadillo, Lemmy and Uncle Monty loaded up the Austin Allegro with tools, warmed outselves up by taking on some of St Dunstan's finest the day before the match, none of us had too many scratches although Dave the Armadillo ended up with a hanging nail and Lemmy was recovering from a nasty Chinese burn.

We rolled into Southampton, smashed up a couple of newsagents as punishment for not selling the Argus, and after the game, well it was like the glory days as we took on the Six Fingered Crew from Solent..........baseball bats, CS gas cannisters, knuckledusters, bricking a few scummers cars, dodging the OB of course and respecting scarfers and civilians, as this is naughty boy v naughty boy stuff.

It was a blue and white riot, I wanted to riot, blue and white riot, a riot of my own.

Might even go to the Wycombe game now with Armadillo Dave and steal a fanzine, after all, we English are a fighting nation.

God bless the Queen Mother, know what I mean?

Was Dave (don't call me Dave) Hardman on duty or is he still doing bird for the 86' nonsense?

[Mellotron]

I love London Pompous.

 

[The Wizard]

There were a few incidents, such as, bricks being thrown through 2 of our coaches windows, a fight on the bus which was can I say, Hilarious.

Nothing serious though.

when/where were the brick incidents? sounds about right for soton.there were a few small incidents on walk back to station but most got wrapped up in an escort near kfc.before game it was mostly southamton having a pathetic bash at our escort and few scuffles with police.

what a great day though

I'm not 100% sure but two friends who were on one of the coaches text me and told me.

Why? probably because they are sore losers.

I was walking back with the missus when that lot of kids (30-50?) appeared from the right before the station with the police camera team chasing them. We had split off from the main group of Albion fans to get the earliest train. They were asking everyone "Are you a Saint?". I fought the urge to say "No, I'm a sinner".

The police rounded them up at the main junction, their average age was about 14, and I haven't been that scared since Tinky Winky swung his handbag at noo-noo

I saw that 'firm' ( ) before the game at the Feathers pub, all posing outside and pretending to look and be hard. I saw a fat kid with cherubic cheeks & a few mates from the pub after the game, loitering at the top of the hill near the station, acting all hard and eyeballing everyone who walked past. They stayed well away from the main part of the station where the main Albion Contingent were waiting for trains. How brave of them?

I tell you, that experience has scared me for life.

I was in that escort group. 1 arrest I believe for some idiot breaking through the police escort and trying to get at the Soton lot in thier famous home pub.

 

[London Pompous]

Less lip you mugs. If it wasn't for the like of me and Uncle Vern Brighton would have no rep, and we all benefit from being top of the table in the naughty boy stakes.

I've suffered for you lot in the past, and you should show some respect. Only last year I watches Ross Kemp's 'Britain's Hardest Babysitters' three times on Sky, and I queued for hours to get his autograph after he appeared in panto in Snow White in the West End. Others wanted BOBBY DAVRO's autograph too, but those in the know, stay in the know, and it was Kemp only for us.

So next time you are cowering in fear as the Wycombe Snatch Squad attempt to take over one of OUR manors, and a top crew arrive to defend your honour, just remember, a nod, a quiet word of thanks, is appreciated, but we look after our own, including all the nancy boys who aren't in the know and who disrespect our contribution to keeping the Albion's hard edge.

Nuff said!

God Bless The Queen Mum.
