Nottingham Forest Great European Nights Remembered

[Sniffer Dog (Admin)]

And I remember the Scouse fans were shall we say less than courteous on that night ( no **** Sherlock ).

I remember the bus that left from the Salutation with the 'Mad Squad' inside all dreesed in Green Jackets.

After the match they refused to get on the bus, instead they surrounded the bus and the driver slowly drove away from Stanley Park whilst the Mad Squad protected the bus from getting bricked.

Yep. I don't mind saying that I was one of them.  :cool:

Anderlecht - Nottingham Forest, UEFA CUP Semi Final 1984.

The Forest fans are packed in like Sardines and some fans escaped by climbing over the fence which caused some serious trouble with the Anderlecht fans behind the goal.

I am in there somewhere and I was one of those who scaled the fence into the Anderlect end behind the goal, not because I was looking for trouble but because I didn't feel safe in the Forest enclosure, it was too crowded.

I was there that night against AEK. It was the first time I ever saw a 'foreign' team play at the City Ground. Funnily enough I am now sitting on my balcony typing this and I am looking out over a brand new AEK Athens stadium being constructed.
