Again, if I'd have said that I'd have been berated. It's certainly a United shirt.

Why would you have been berated? If you mean my comment was motivated by it being a Man United fan you are jumping to an incorrect conclusion. When I wrote that post identification of it being a United fan had yet to be established. In actual fact I was responding to red devil alluding to it being a 180 which of course is impossible with a single dart.

It could be a Huns scarf, blue and white, with a thin red stripe...


I don't think the perpertrator could actually miss Ratty! Having said that, it looks like one of those darts you get at the fun fair which is specially weighted to miss the board...Jah, didn't Pat Jennings get hit with a dart?


I remember a Utd fan got hit with a dart in his head at Anfield in the Annie Road end, nowadays we have to make do with bags of shit thrown at us...nice

Ditto Villa Park FA Cup semi, Utd v Gooners. Consider it a rite of passage Ratty, animals scenting out their territory.


Does anyone remember 'Fighting Stars', part of the 70's Kung Fu craze?..

Ok, it's a given that mancs and scousers hate each other, but this survey of Ldn fans throws up some strange rivalries, no prizes for guessing which teams fans have grown a recent dislike to Shef Utd, eh Quids?..

Your right it wasn't undercover filming, I remember the interviews on the trains, but by 'expose' I meant it was probably the first time a lot of the public got to see and hear young men basically saying they go to a football match just for a good old fashioned punch-up...

What were the politics of the ICF?, again from memory there would be several black faces in their ranks (Cass Pennent?), but West Ham also had a strong NF reputation around that time. At Utd the bias was very anti-fascist, especially as there was strong support from a large Irish community...

I am an easy going chap MM, and small - I just started going to West Ham home and away in the late 70s and especially away you got to know a lot of people, that'a all. At that game at man U I was atill in the ground watching West Ham get stuffed rather than outside doing all that shite. That was then etc.

      Fireworks

      By SophieA · Posted

      There’s a couple of Gov petitions going on in relation to fireworks at the moment but this one is for banning them entirely except organised displays if anyone wants to sign. This is the only sensible way forward in my view. No one should be able to let them off in gardens or anywhere like that, it’s crazy. I am surprised some of you have said it hasn’t been as bad this year. I live near DKH Saino and it’s been absolutely terrible my way for days. This petition gained about 20,000 just in the last day or so so clearly the appetite is there! https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/732559

      I'd have thought they could use some of  their income from hiring out a large part of Brockwell Park in the summer (therefore, as I understand it, preventing local residents from using much of it) to put on a firework display there  in the autumn which might somewhat make up to those residents for the previous loss of use of the park. And also generate goodwill.

      Dulwich library closing for refurbishment

      By Sue · Posted

      Clicking on your name, I see you've made seven posts on here since you joined  around four years ago, and they've all been about local libraries. And none of the posts are  very pleasant. Care to share with the rest of us where  your particular interest in libraries comes from? Do you work in one of them?
