  • This is the ITV Central News report broadcast on Mon 2 Mar 1992 into the serious crowd trouble which took place during the Blues v Stoke match on Sat 29 Feb 92. Blues fans poured onto the pitch following a controversial goal scored by Stoke in the final minutes of a tense and highly charged match. The Match Referee Roger Wiseman was assaulted and the Blues fans then attacked the Stoke fans in the Tilton Road end of the ground. The match was initally thought to have been abandoned, but after the ground had been completely cleared of all spectators, the two teams were brought back out to play out the last few minutes in front of a deseted stadium. The final score was 1-1.

    I was at that game and a lot of good people were saved that day by Stokes Naughty 40 who got on the fence to stop the Brum coming in. They were well outnumbered that day but stood and defended that fence like life depended on it and it did. Don’t go in for football fighting but a big thanks to all you game Stoke lads that stopped them at the fence. It stopped a lot of very innocent shirts getting badly hurt for doing no more than turning up to support the team they love. Also well done to the police and some but not all the security staff.

      They didn't want to leave the ground, once it got abandoned. There was a building site opposite the away end, full of bricks and scaffolding. Stoke shit it, on the way back down Garrison Lane and into town. One of theirs was in hospital for weeks and eventually lost his eye. They got hammered after their brave little show on that fence line.

      A few Stoke did jump on, they climbed down from the upper seats, in the Main Stand. Only about 6 of them, but fair play they were as keen as mustard. All them along the fence had the opportunity to back their mates but decided to leave them with it.

      I was there that day and it's definitely not what I saw. Now I can only guess that you are a Vile fan or some idiot that just likes to have a dig at Blues at every opportunity. In no way do I condone violence but in those days Blues had a respected firm that other firms feared.
      I remember that day and the referee was a joke. It was a simmering atmosphere anyway and one decision towards the end caused it to explode. Again I will say that it's no excuse for what happened after but it was already a pressure cooker and so much riding on the result .
      Unless you know what you are talking then I suggest you keep quiet.

The Zulu firm do have to be commended in the context of creating inclusion of black and Irish immigrants of which both of these groups were marginalized by society in general at that particular time period. I now also believe the time is right for a firm or football club in England to be kind to the Muslim community in 2024. Allah akbar God is great.
