The FEC didn't exist in 1977. I've read two of your posts about Forest and both are factually incorrect
I was there in 77, with a couple of mates, we were only 14, and in the North Bank. From my memory, Forest had a decent mob in the South Bank, their allocated end, but got set about by the West Ham there. They were escorted to the West Side stand ,up the North Bank end ,with chants of " come up the North Bank " from them. The Forest just started singing, when they were again set about by the West Side mob, and were then escorted out the ground. No shame on Forest, West Ham, was a really tough frightening place in the 70s, and folklore has it ,the coppers, eastenders themselves, would, to a point, turn a blind eye to opposition fans getting done
If I remember correctly nobody "invaded" the South Bank as all visiting supporters were sent there.
The Forest Executive Crew did not exist until the early 1980s, they were named the FEC after the Executive Stand (the old East Stand) was built at the City Ground in 1980, so I dunno where you get your info but it's wrong. The Forest crew of the 70s was the Mad Squad.
I was with Carlton that day (Billy Davies) and I admit we got battered by Forest, there was Forest everywhere 🙄
Same old bollocks about chelsea taking the trent end they where put in there by plod
Every Forest fan who was there will admit it was a bad day at the office. We arrived late on coaches and the police wouldn’t let us into the ground. Possible a good thing who knows?
Honestly can say we never had a problem with Forest home or away, they turned up at OT in a huge escort in 77 or 78, hundreds of United ran at them and they scattered, when the police sorted it out we had about 150 + amongst them and went in their sections. The rest is history, that was the game i was arrested and was thrown in a police van. My first arrest that. And we lost 4.0.
what books is this guy quoting from,all the time.
Anyone remember the two white transits of Forest in Barking Road ? One crashed through a wall and the other stopped behind , end of story for them. Forest didn't have a clue that day .
Chelsea games at forest were all ticket in the 70s they were given about 4 or 5000 tickets for the trent end .
I know Arsenal and Millwall often gave it to West Ham but Forest?
Forest went in the chicken run first and got run out of their.
Join Reform Suella you know it makes sense!!
This did not happen no firm ever had a go at the south bank in my days from 76-86 and beyond, a few Arsenal once went in the lower west side seats 🤣with the families
Where was forest when Leicester took there town in the facup
Nobody disputing you had a massive mob i av followed,Forest pre clough days and all i will say ive been to scarier places than old trafford so lets agree to disagree all water under the bridge anyway
These vids are so funny. They get fans who were there at the time, who are probably now aged 50,60 and 70 arguing about what they did when they were teenagers 😂
More bollox 😂😂. This is a american account
