    Never called the Yid army in the 70's. It was taken up in the 80's as a roll call due to the anti semitic chanting from West Ham, Millwall and Chelsea.

    There was never any doubt as to which was the home end at Sunderland, it was the Fulwell End. The Roker End was where the away fans usually went, and over the years a contingent of Sunderland lads would go into the Roker End when there was a strong away following. If Spurs thought the Roker End was bad, they should have tried the Fulwell!!

    The home end was the Fulwell End but there were a hardcore of lads who went into the Roker End where the away fans were to have a ruck.
    I suspect that day when the Spurs fans have came in late after the kick off regular fans have joined in.
    As the video says not regular hooligans but just mainly coal miners and shipyard workers and the best of luck with that.

    Probably meant Sammy Skyves who was also black not Tiny the black Millwall fan. Sammy was the main man in Keith Robbins firm, Spurs 1970s equivalent to Millwall's F-Troop. They were adults in their 20s and probably some in their 30s, had their own section in WHL next to the Park Lane away end. I was about 14 at the time, I remember this same season in 77/78 in division 2 when Spurs played Millwall at home, a load of us young uns went in that section and Robbin's diehards were none too happy when F-Troop started singing "does your mummy know you're here" towards us. Still we came back with "Lalalalala woof woof, woof woof" towards Harry the Dog.

    the comments about Tiny below are correct. He was a fearsome looking white guy. I once saw him and his crew at nottingham forest steaming in and scattering all of them. Spurs had a great away mob that season. Besides the Sunderland game here and the notorious boxing day away match at millwall, the game that I remember most was against Brirmingham city at St Andrews. What a s***hole that place was. We parked too close to the ground and all the cars had their windows bricked in. Miraculously our ford capri (complete with vinyl roof) remained untouched. To this day I cant understand how!
