Away with following City ?

In the 90's for me Gillingham away in the night, 11 City fans up there in the Auto glass cup, more stewards than us. When we scored a the golden goal by Carl Dale, 3 of us climbed the fence and ran over to him, we were rugby tackled by Stewards but they laughed about it later. :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

50 to Preston on a Friday night about 1986, in the league we won 1 nil, got a video of us all singing and the players celebrating at the end with us.. :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

scarborough away on a soaking wet and windy night

game should have been called off

we neded a win for play offs but I think they scored late on to equalise

there was about 8 of us behind the goal

showed a tamping city fan chuck his brolly down , which was in bits anyway, as they equalised in front of us

and one of them was big nick from tredegar if I remember

and about 30 in the grandstand

Me and a mate went up on the train independently to Sheff Wednesday on a winter's wednesday night in the 70s. As soon as about 20 City fans got into the ground Wednesday ran them right into a top corner which was uncovered, it pissed rain on them all night.

Me and my mate aged 14 and 15 at the time watched from the covered area quietly :D

So my answer is 2 :D

I've been to bournemouth 3 or 4 times. Once was on a saturday before ground was redeveloped-lovely sunny day with about 250 or so hardy souls. Crap game.
Other 3 were league cup and mickey mouse trophy.

Chester away in around 1990 or 1991 on a Tuesday night - maybe about 50 of us in main stand. Carl Dale was playing for Chester in those days and scored the only goal of the game in the last minute.
