whatever about the rest this is f***ing gold

 

A mounted policeman watches the situation closely as colleagues deal with crowd trouble at the Brisbane Road ground before the League Division Two match between Orient and Manchester United on the opening day of the 1974/75 season.

why were Man Utd playing Arsenal at Anfield?

 

Doesn't it say they were banned from playing at OT for a couple of games at the start of one season?

 

Although why they thought Anfield would be a better option...

Those were the days, my friend.

 

 

Amazing to see how much the 'match going experience' has changed.

Is it me or do the majority of those pics involve Manchester United? Is that just coincidence or were they the worst ones around?

They were absolutely awful in the 70's. A real bunch of thugs.

I vaguely remember watching them pretty much destroy everything on a train platform as they tried to battle past police separating them from us Liverpool fans on a train on another platform. We had police on our train blocking every exit.

The QPR V Liverpool picture.

 

This is QPR away in 74, we won 1.0 Brian Hall scored early on. This was the open end, that is now the home end. We just about got in thousands of red's turned up, the gates got locked early on.

An announcement was made over the tannoy that nurses from the local hospital would be walking around the pitch holding bed sheets for people to throw money into to help them. A couple of bottles got lashed at the police as they escorted the nurses the police picked on the lad wearing the red hat, it wasn't him and he got lashed out. It was some lads standing behind him, because we where standing behind them. Lad in the top left corner also used to go all the away's as well, think he was from Thornton.
