I couldn't give a monkeys if it still goes on away from the grounds, at least it's no longer a part of the matchday experience and is no longer ruining watching football like it used to for the majority of fans. P.S. pretty sure I'm not a millennial, I grew up watching City in the late seventies and early eighties. I'm not fond of it I was merely stating that back in the late '60s and early seventies there was tribal violence at football grounds with the Skinhead phenomenon of the time, now the violence is orchestrated through social media and smartphones, and there seems to be very little trouble actually in the ground these days, it may have been a minority thing back then but it was still pretty commonplace. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midred Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 Always amazed me how the only way away fans can get Trent Bridge and the station is come out of the other side of the ground and then pass through all the home fans from the Trent end!

The snowflake football today is completely sanitised I know. Prefer the old skool stuff TBH. Not necessarily the rucks, but the Forest lads did come looking for trouble and they found it.

If it wasn't for the blokes that chased them back to the Amici bar, a lot of innocents would have been caught up in it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, that’s what I saw on the day as per my previous post on this thread. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is why stupid comments on here from supporters who obviously weren’t there on the day just pisses you off sometimes. Football was so different back in the day. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slartibartfast Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 I can remember back in the early 70's NF had quite a rep. To quote every football manager ever, " not an easy place to come to". I remember our first visit ,circa 72 (lost 1-0, Galley ironically). We got off the train and out of the station (furtively), turned a corner only to be confronted by graffiti on a bridge saying...........Last chance to shit out and run , which made us feel a whole lot safer ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
