Anybody else gonna watch our near neighbours? I've only seen us beat them once at their place and that was last cup match,highlight for me was watching half time "lob ball into skip" entertainment!
 
Might well have been. We played like a Sunday kickabout, though. The three streakers from the End I was in showed more commitment than the rest of the team.

Some great away days that season. Three goals in wins at each of Grimsby, Brentford, Cambridge, Watford. Some memorable defeats too - Charlton for the smallest Div 2 crowd I’ve ever seen. Then on the point of winning eight in a row we go to Twerton Park and Lowe gets sent off in the first ten minutes for abusing the ref.
 
Joachim's goal at Barnsley in the FACup and against Portsmouth at the City Ground.
The "Gas" pulled a knife on a few of us at Bath. Bit dicey till the Police sorted it!
 
I went to Twerton, and a few other aways that season, with the late great Paul Taylor (Of Fossils And Foxes fame). The only risk in that came from us drinking before during and after the game from Panda Pop sized bottles pre-mixed with spirits.
 
These Rovers lads hadn't been in the ground. They came out from near those blocks of flats that overlooked the far side of the ground. Looking for trouble at the end of the match.
Same season a whole van load of us got arrested shortly after the 2-0 win at Birmingham. Just for jumping out the back of the van to defend ourselves from a group of attacking Brummies. Rob Broughton a lawyer at Flavell's got us all off with it. We had to go back to that big Queen Elizabeth Law Courts 3 times. Broughton was a Corporate lawyer not Criminal but he was a Leicester fan that we knew at the time. Different approach than from a normal lawyer in that sort of situation. He stuck to his task and eventually got it thrown out of court on lack of evidence. The YamYam witnesses against us were a bit thick though!
 
They put us in that holding pen they had at the back of the Main Stand at St.Andrews for a start. Then they said because it was a bit busy up town we were all going to the Police Station in Stechford. One of the detectives they put on the case was short tongued and it was like a "Welease Woderick" sketch in the cells all night. Would have been rude of us (or "wude") not to have joined in the proceedings in the same style. So we did!
