Most significant Trouble?

Forgive me for reminiscing times gone by, but reading Annis' books I have a question:
What in your opinions was the biggest / maddest / worst / best trouble we've had?
More recently Stoke Wolves Chelsea?
Older days United Chelsea Boro at home?
Which do you feel was the most significant?
Again not looking to glorify but reminisce times gone by, they happened rightly or wrongly!

Mine was Iraq 1991....really kicked off that day and went on for a few days after too!
They were throwing loads of shit at us and brought some serious numbers....but we were too well tooled up and eventually beat them in to a retreat!

Stoke mate.

End of thread realy.

That was the straw that broke the camels back, when they finaly had enough of us.

After that game, everything changed.

I was thinking that but a few issues since that, I personally feel Chelsea recently has put the end to it.

Afghanistan

Swansea FA cup '91, if they'd've had CCTV down the Kingsway like at Stoke/Chelsea back then...

What ever anyone says, it did happen and its now history, but like anything in the past it will be talked about by many generations to come.

Westham away in the late 70's.
Chelsea at home in the late 70's.
Boro at home in the Facup in the 90's.
Man Utd at home in the 70's.
Swansea away in the 80's.
Bristol C away in the 80's.
Hereford away in the Welsh Cup semi-final.

Swansea FA cup '91, if they'd've had CCTV down the Kingsway like at Stoke/Chelsea back then...

Very true, only seen the one bit of footage from that.

Annis I thought most of them were spot on, but you always trump it with Hereford! Top man

Stoke was virtually the end of it,even though Chelsea away showed it is still there deep down.

Hereford away was more than just a fight or a smashed up pub, it was like anarchy.

I bet there some cider spilt there, very tight closed shop that area

Personally I don't think Stoke can be included in this as no one fought each other, just skirmishes with Police.

Wasn't west ham home and spurs and wolves away all after stoke? Again not sure how they rate.

Also how much of Chelsea was real action?
But i believe it will be some of the last

True, but the trouble at Wolves was after the police had pushed Cardiff fans to far and Wolves had started it. Spurs was a massive game and as you know, Cardiff still had hundreds of Valleys going thanks to the Valley Rams and all them together made one hell of a mob/army, how ever you would like to describe them.

Stoke, got rid of a lot of areas that followed Cardiff.

Cardiff are not like other teams fans, as if you banned 30 or 40 of them, thats the end of them for years. It has taken over 400 Cardiff fans to be banned since the year 2000, to virtually finish them off.

I like the way you say virtually Annis....

I like the way you say virtually Annis, but your right over the last decade or so the bans have mounted up. Be interesting to see the totals. Is it really 400?

70s was the time for fighting.

There was fighting everywhere in the 70s not only at football.

The 70s was a mental decade alltogether.

Bombings, Strikes, Fighting at Football, Nighhtclubs, Pubs, supermarkets, playground fights, bonfire night fights, fights in the station between different areas, fights for fecking anything.

Nobody phoned the police and the winner was allowed back in the pub/club

Westham away in the late 70's.
Chelsea at home in the late 70's.
Boro at home in the Facup in the 90's.
Man Utd at home in the 70's.
Swansea away in the 80's.
Bristol C away in the 80's.
Hereford away in the Welsh Cup semi-final.

What about Spurs at home in the FA Cup 1977?? still have the scars on me bons as a reminder

Man Utd was the only one really.

We could have had a couple of real good rows with the jacks but they bottled it on the pitch at ours and on the pitch at theirs.

The pictures and film are there to prove it:old:

I forgot Palace v jacks at hours (late 70s or very early 80s?)....they got smashed that day as well.....all through the game

I Remember Wigan playing Cardiff blue dragons in rugby league at NP absolute carnage

I was there, Cardiff did eventually run them off the Bob bank, I thought it was Widnes in the Cup.

I was there, but just a little young to be involved.

My first beating was Westham away in the 78 season.

We can all go on about mil wall and west ham, Wales v Scotland at anfield, but nothing was like the manure game, Cardiff would have beaten the Russian army that day. Stoke, Swansea etc., they did not hang around to find out what was gOing to happen

Annis you might be right it was mental only rugby game I have ever been to

Was that when FV really took hold?
Wonder what was the first recognised action

I think Millwall hold that title from way, way back before the World Wars

It's believed that Skinhead youth culture in the 60's was the begining of widespread Football related violence and i believe that

They were allowed to drink on the Bob bank that day with their own drink.
The beer cans were flying every where.
