    Got to be St James's Park for me. And I don't mean Exeter. :)

    Valley Parade back in the day , if you were going in a car take everything that could identify it being from Barnsley out because your windows would be smashed in if not

    Locally, Northcliffe near Denaby. When we got off the bus we were welcomed by the women spitting at us. It was 50 years ago.

    That's pretty much my list as well. Had some hairy moments getting away from Hillsboro and Bramall lane as well. Then there's getting bricked after the 4-2 win at Millmoor walking up the ginnel

    I found Molineux quite a frosty atmosphere. The crowd were noisy, and you felt like they were on top of you practically.

    Man United and Liverpool fans were notorious in the 70s and 80s. They were always on the lookout for away colours or non local accents..

    Yes! Very good shout. They don't like Yorkshire clubs at all. It was either my first or second-ever away game, they beat us, and there was still hell on.

    What a shame they're the 92nd-best team in the land, and are off to the Conference again.
