Kenny Burns showing his arse on that ice rink of a pitch
Some bloke with a terrier that used to hare around the pitch pre match with total control of a football.
 
Watching the Geordie Boot Boys walk single file past the Kop queue in 68/69, all glimpsed from inside on the stairs. They weren’t singing, they weren’t doing anything but walking. And almost all of them had steel toe caps of a size I’d never seen before, like ones an old woman could bring up a whole family in.
 
In the mid-seventies every game around the same time a biggish fella would appear from out of the Kop with a full blue cash bag and walk around the running track and down the tunnel. Not a very good memory I know but,.... fuck you......it's my story.....fuck off

I believe I know who that may have been. He’s a roofer
 
Bristol City fan on a stretcher being carried around the side of the pitch, starts sticking the V up in front of The Kop, somehow the stretcher bearers managed to let him fall off in front of the old main stand, good lads…
 
Villa fans "re-designing" the catering kiosk. Got hit behind the ear by a packet of Rolo's. I don't particularly like Rolo's would have preferred a Mars Bar. Still full size one's back in them days 'an all!
 
Stood in the Kop as a ‘young un’ in the early 70s before kick off and remember watching a big fella singing to the the coppers ‘ I fought the law and I won’ found out in later years it was the one and only Fowlpenloony, told Greg this tale at a mutual friends 70th in a pub in Newtown Lindford where we spent many hours reminiscing about our football endeavours following the City…
 
Ding ding.“Hello again…”
Cardiff fan called “Animal” OB led him out to chorus of “Animal’s been arrested”.

The fans who came in in full kit and scored a “goal” during the match . Think it was V Brighton and we lost 0-1.
 
On the final whistle, the mass movement from the top half of pen 3 towards the exit caused a real crush at the top of the stairs, as a lightweight youngster my feet could sometimes be taken off the ground and you’d definitely feel the crush on your chest
 
Pen 3 in the 80’s…shouting ”get your rat out “ to the couple of girls bringing the left over hotdog rolls along the front of the Kop.
 
The state of the pitch sometimes.
The much postponed 5th round vs Liverpool in 69. Pitch looked like a sandy beach.
Against Blackpool in the Div 2 decider 1970. Had more water on it than Cropston reservoir.
 
Do disallowed goals count as non goal moments?
Night game against Villa.
They rocket one in - hits the back stanchion comes back out and the ref waves play on.
Leicester break, Ally Brown who surely broke from his own halve by the Popside, races away and scores.
Pandemonium on the pitch.
Ref gives a free kick to Villa ruling the Brown was offside.
Non goal moment.

I was in the Kop when that shot hit the stanchion, Elsie. Villa went down that season, too, if I remember right.
 
Zigger zagger zigger, they’ve got a n!€€$# often heard from the terraces as I stood there with my black mate Ingamar (Inky) 😕
