I remember that day. I was 12 at the time and was staying with my Grandparents in Barry that night. The fighting made the main ITV News that night and My Grandad (RIP) was leading forth about awful these hooligans were!

The other thing i remember was the name of one of ours arrested (Michael Dow). That season i remember him getting nicked on several occasions at NP and it took a number of officers to restrain him. One major one was Wolves at home when some wolves fans got on the bob bank and made the mistake of celebrating a goal.

Didn't middlesboro play their game at Hartelpools ground right after our match?

I think they had been thrown out of Ayresome park.

I was there with you in the stand with 'boro' below us and we took a few slaps.

Do you remember going back to the away end and hiding behind fellow cardiff fans when the coppers were searching the crowd after the incident in the seats.

I was in that Stand only 20 of us turned up in it, out of 80 saying they would all go in it.
