Good luck to the County this year.
Totally agree, they had much better lads than the Jacks
Of course they did, but just like Wrexham they never turned up in Swansea. f**k me, you really hate us don't you eh!
I never rated Wrexham or the Jacks, just some honesty
Ok, Annis, i never really rated you lot either unless you were in big numbers.
But hey, maybe you can help me out with this one. What incident prompted A total ban on away fans prior to the bubbles being introduced? Most think it was the 'Battle of Ninian Park' in 93. But's that isn't correct as there is a youtube video of us playing you at Ninian Park almost a year later (Sept 94) and our fans were clearly allowed to attend that game. Yet i cannot think of any major incident between 93 and the total ban? It's a mystery!
Well I went to the Vetch for every game from the 70's till now and during the old days shall I say, you know for a fact Cardiff took Swansea's town centre and the front of Swansea over every time and it was better than playing at home.
Neath/Port Talbot, (PVM) Blues would have already taken parts of Swansea over before the rest of Cardiff had already even arrived.
After your lot threw seats at families, no wonder fans were banned, even when we got banned at your place, the first time I got in and was eventually joined by 400 other Cardiff fans and we were left alone on the East Terrace, the second time, I got escorted out after 10 mins and joined other Cardiff fans fans walking the front of Swansea.
Every Monday night in Swansea town Centre (Martha's Pub/night club Cardiff Docks lads would take it over and would be joined by Neath/Port Talbot lads and drink all over Swansea, Swansea knew we were there,but were to scared to come out.
Jesus Annis, i asked you a genuine question and you reply to me with fairy tales!
400 Cardiff on the East Terrace for one of the banned games!
Escorted out after 10 mins and left to wander around Swansea at will!
Those banned games were highly policed, if there was a sniff of away support, you would not be allowed entry into either City, and if you managed to get past that then unless you kept your gob shut and sat on your own then you would be rounded up locked up, and escorted out of the City after the game had finished. I know from experience.
I've rightly conceded to you in the past that your numbers meant that some of you had a free reign at times when you visited, but trust me the Neath and PT lads were run all over the place early doors and usually found some place to 'hide' until the reinforcements came along, and if any of them are honest enough they'll admit that. The ones i speak to certainly do!
Martha's on a Monday night eh? Was Never into the rave scene myself, but hey, if a few lads want to come down to a Swansea nightclub on a Monday night then good for you! Not exactly football related is it? Never any reports of trouble there, but i'm sure if you'd made it football related then it would have been dealt with. But well done for turning up in Swansea on a Monday night anyway!
Maybe you should have asked Newport or Bristol City fans to play a rivals match to raise money for Mikey Dye's family? But nah! You came to the Jacks, the most irrelevant bunch of football fans on the face of the earth in your eyes!
Anyway, any chance you can answer the genuine question i asked in the first place?
I only deal in facts and that's all true what I've said about when we were banned at Swansea, the prob is you Jacks don't like the truth.
As to Raves I could not stand them myself, it wasn't a Rave on Monday nights.
I will state it again, for me we had more fun with Newport, Bristol City and Bristol Rovers than you lot.
Port Talbot and Neath Blues dealt with you lot on match days and non match days.
As to Mikey Dye RIP, it was a Jack called Reeco who contacted me and I have nothing but respect for him and all the other Jacks who helped raise money for Mikey Dyes familyb
I honestly don't hate the Jacks never have, it was a big day out as the Valley's would turn out bigger than any other game for you lot.
