Battle of Stamford Bridge (Guardian)

My favourite ever away game brilliant day out with a load coach load of Boro fans ***ed by 10 am never felt worried once maybe too pished to notice but it was some day / night
 
There was a Chelsea steward with long blond hair at the front leading the few Chelsea who dared to approach the Boro end.

Then I saw some Boro lad wearing a bandana fly over the fence towards the steward and got some digs in before being carted off by the police.

The blond steward who got slapped, swapped his bib with 22 on it with another steward to try and hide his identity.

The whole thing was orchestrated by the vvanker Ken Bates.

Me, my dad and our kid went to Putney after the game and were sat at a table outside a pub with a big f'cough bottle of champagne. We got a few glares, but that was it.
Yea recall similar. The steward was clearly looking for it but the vast majority of the Chelsea on the pitch stopped and threw stones from the cinder track. The ones who went further were met by some unbelievably game Boro lads who jumped the fence to confront them.
The journey back to King’s Cross was as a previous poster said, like the second hour of The Warriors.
 
I was at the old Wembley same day as a young un watching a schoolboy international, England v Brazil. Went on a trip with the team I used to play for, maybe Cleveland Juniors or similar at that time I think. We listened the the game on the coach on the way home. Utb!
Our Coach followed the other coaches in front , unfortunately the coaches in front were going to that schoolboy match at Wembley . By the time we got to Chelsea there was hell on up the Fulham road
