Singing Never walk alone with the barnsley fans was the most emotion in a song ive ever felt or heard. I've never been to Anfield and sang it and never likely to but i bet those scousers wouldnt have an ounce of that what i felt.
RE: Singing Never walk alone with the barnsley fans was well said mate i was only 8 at that match but i still felt it and remember it to this day(Y)
RE: Singing Never walk alone with the barnsley fans was Same here mate i was only 8 or 9. I can rember it well though most emotion i have ever seen in a song down at well
For those of you who didn't go to the early 80s Anfield match.......... That occasion was a joy to be hold. 17000 Barnsley fans made the trip to Anfield yes 17 thousand it wasn't a misprint to play the European Champions. We drew nil nil, half the fans didn't get there while half time because of massive fog probs on the motorway. Colin Walker should have won it for us and I had my photo taken on the pitch at half time with my older brother holding the end of a scarf each. The picture got on the back of the chronicle and also in the programme the week after...................</p> Thing is they had deleted my brother and just had me holding a floating scarf!!! Ha Ha Mark in your face!!</p> Good to see that 20 years on I can still have a smug face to laugh at the siblings!!</p>
RE: That wasn't a stabbing the most scared i've been at any match and i've been to west ham, millwall (old den), middlesboro et al. Took the missis she was my girlfriend at the time . got there just before half time she was desperate for the loo but i wanted top see something of the match so she held on after the game wanted to find the bus saw a bunch of coppers asked them where we could find a toilet one of them pointed us to the arkle pub and all the rest of them started laughing an old scouser overheard us and told us about a sports centre we could use trying to find the bus there were fights breaking out all over got a sense something was going to happen managed to push her onto a bus with her saying this isn't our bus managed to get the door shut in time to see a lad get his face kiked in through the glass pane in the door blood spatter everywhere real brown trouser job good old friendly scousers
50 at Port Vale I was one of them fans there that day, infact i brought this match up the other day.</p> one of the best followings ive seen there might not have been many of us and the football might have been diabolical at the time but bot did we get behind them, we sang red army for about 30mins non stop and there was no boo boys there.</p>
it was me who added that one biggest cheer of game came from vale fans when robbie williams' name was announced. was freezing cold, only about 100 of us all there and we sung like mad all the way through. 0-0 i think and we were a shambles but the singing was class. its games like that why i prefer watching us away rather than at home so you don't get the whingers in the ponty and eaststand booing all the time
A couple of lads on our bus.. got a kicking that night, luckily no knife wounds though. A big bloke from Melton got on the bus saying it was Everton Fans that were causeing the trouble. He said he had to lay a few out on the way back to the bus because they were trying to rob him. to summarise. FOG Walker Scallies Piss bottles. A good night was had by all. ff
