Now I seem to remember that the match you are talking about was a midweek game as it was rearranged after the death of Diana. We were finally allowed out with the police clearing and closing off all streets before letting us walk down them. They took us to the train station and that was that. Truly a unique club for better or worse in English League because not only are the safest away friendly pubs all the way out at London Bridge but they actually have a walkway especially designed for away fans from South Bermondsey station!!

Millwall Bushwackers - Wikipedia

Being 56 years of age now, I remember CBL also as the scariest place to be (or not to be) in the 80s. Went with other German Blues to the match and were surrounded by little rats of them (aged 15 or 16) with stanley knives and other tools. Managed to get out of this place, but it was scary there and no Old Bill to be seen for miles. For more than twenty years Tiny (real name Ian Garwood) was the ‘big daddy’ of the ground, keeping young fans in line and watching out for the rest of the pride if any trouble flared up. I'm pretty sure that Millwall fan on the train who gave the "pint pot in the face" comment is on the opening credits of MOTD or MOTD2.Fellow Millwall fan, Kevin Downey, 55, knew Tiny since the mid-seventies and said despite his name he was “larger than life”. “He was quite a comedian – “he’d always make you laugh,” he said fondly. “When you walked in the room he’d put a smile on your face.”

Was watching the game from the side of the pitch when a chant of Millwall rose from the tote end . Their fans had got into the tote end and they literally chased the rovers fans out of their own end and then stood in the middle chanting. There were not very many of them either. Think their leader was called something like mad dog Harry. A legendary Millwall fan was honoured on Saturday with a tribute night which raised hundreds in his memory. Harry the dog was on Panorama 70s/8os with his crew, He jumped in The Bristol end on his own. One section wore surgical masks (F troop? ). Now I need to hear the song 🙂There is a video on you tube . Following millwall to eastvile .

About HMHB

Think, as many others, the mob of the early 80s was the best. Away support seemed to me better, than home support, when troube arised. But isn´t that an indication of quality?
