The Bob Bank, Ninian Park

Like that photo! Brings back some good memories of past times, good laugh, togetherness and certainly when the football was not always the best! Keep em coming Annis.

Never ever "taken".chelsea gave it a good shot but got battered.funniest though a welsh cup game jacks in there early doors via the grange end. Bob bank turnstiles opened they sprinted off faster than usain bolt

Remember a mob of about 20 West Ham coming on there. Cardiff fans were all over them like locusts with the last Hammer in a long leather coat was literally lobbed over onto the track around the pitch. Funny how some things stick in your mind, but I can still the look of terror on that fellars face after all these years.

I remember the black guy (west ham fan) on top of the fence.police clubbing him one side city fans attacking him on the other.

Guess it must have been about 1978/1980? Can remember the black guy too, could it have been Cass Pennant?

Don't know.bizarrely I remember him coming down with orient as well.took a terrible beating when he tried to take the bob bank on his own!.

Most impressive mob ive seen down Ninian park, night match 1980,only about 100 of them,only a youngster at the time remember thinking it must be great being that hard.
