It used to be simple back in the day. Anyone in a shirt was off limits as were people on their own, blokes with birds, disabled, kids, old gits and you never went in first when the odds were on your side. Anyone breaking these rules would be dealt with - it was self policed. What the fuck is the world coming to? The fucking youth of today, no fucking respect.

At higher category games in the past I would tell my oldest lad to wear his Town shirt/colours when he caught the train in with mates because I knew it would be his best chance of getting through the day without trouble but like you say now the old school way is maybe not the best way.

Unwritten rules non existant nowadays, thugs slapping anyone to give themselves a thrill. Sad.

If they want to fight each other then so be it. Still find it unfair that a lad who works all week can go out at the weekend be involved in football violence and serve twice as big a sentence as a lad that does it on a saturday night with his mates but away from a match. Appears that hooligans don't simply get enough of a thrill going at it with another 'firm' but have to make the lives a misery of the non involved football fan.

Thats because they haven't got the bottle to go toe to toe. Easier to smack a woman or a kid.

I can remember us playing them in the Anglo Italian Cup rehash about 20 years ago in the Hoddle era. Went to pens after a 2-2 draw and we won. Funniest moment was the tannoy announcement just before the pens that the last train to Oxford was leaving in 10 mins
That was the year before the one I'm thinking of which was played at The Manor, and undoubtedly Austin Berkley's finest hour in a Town shirt. Your game ended 3-3, before the pens...such was the enthusiasm for the fixture, it attracted about 6000 less than the Rovers game a fortnight before.

519 tickets sold yesterday according to the lad on twitter. Quite surprised by that but it was only 3 per person this time as opposed to 5 previously

No idea, Stoke? BJs off the Mrs?
Pretty sure it isn't Oxford tickets though, definitely not 5 per ST last year, nor 3 this.
