    Gutted I was n't there , my Dad would n't let me go

    I remember him coming home with turf and various parts of the ground later that night.

    Doing a paper round the next day , on the back pages of the mirror is a picture of my Dad on the pitch giving the directors some stick

    I could have posted this!! I came racing back from my paper round to tell my Dad that his picture was on the back page of the Sunday Mirror (in the middle of a big V for 'Valley of Death'). I walked in and before I could say anything he said "I know".
  • Around 2003 I removed an old carpet from a house and underneath was an old yellow page of a newspaper with the headline "Fryer Blasts Idiot fans". It talked about the hopeless halftime sit-in. I still have the paper.

    I was one of the idiots.
