Great days. Until about 88 I used to go in about 1.30 to get a crate to stand on in front of a barrier. Then I moved further back to be in amongst it, but was able to get served so piled in about 2.30...then I later discovered if you stood on Bridgford ona warm dry day you could stay in the pub until 2.58 and still get your spot. Happy days indeed. Youngsters today will never understand the level of camaraderie generated on the terraces.
That is so true about the camaraderie on the terraces Zico. I've been pulled out of scraps and hauled over the Trent End wall on a couple of occasions. The crowd used to open up to let you in, then close ranks around you so the coppers couldnt find you (so Ive been told anyway :blush: )
