Twas an anti-Tory/Thatcher unemployment thing. Not sure if we're talking about the same game Kermy but I remember a load of NUFC nutters turning up in black/white kilts with no shirts on in midwinter. They stood at the top of the Holmesdale and all started to p1ss on the terrace. A river of it cascaded down the steps. With that a small team of Palace fired into them and a right royal ding dong ensued. Before long the Old Bill tried to break them up and both sets of fans turned on the filth. The match was well under way and I found it hard to watch the game as the fight up top was spell binding. I thought that happened in the 70's though? Edited by Hoof Hearted (10 Nov 2013 7.02pm)

Quote Hoof Hearted at 06 Nov 2013 11.59am 18th November 1978 v West Ham away 1-1 Fcuk me that was scary! I went with my ex Mrs and her 2 brothers, one was about 12 and the other was 20 and in the Navy on submarine training. He could handle himself. I was 24 and could stand my corner when the chips were down. We parked up and the younger brother put his scarf on, I asked him if he thought that was wise. On the way to the ground he was spat and we had a few stormy looks, but got to the ground and stood on the terrace in the "chicken run". There were loads of west ham in there and a bunch of lads formed a little posse near us snarling and spoiling for a fight, but calmed down as they went 1-0 up. Palace eventually drew level and all hell broke loose. I felt a kick in the back and turned to face the hooligans who were being driven back by my brother in law, who smacked the fcuk out of them. I got the mrs and her little brother behind me and fended off a few more attacks. We were getting outnumbered so I moved towards the police and complained. One PC who had a cross hammer badge on his tunic said "Don't come here if you can't take it!"........ Nice! We managed to avoid further trouble and got home safely, but I was so proud of my brother in law. He was awesome, but just shrugged it off saying it was nothing compared to a Saturday night in Pompey. I was in the chicken run that day, never celebrated when we scored !!

Was at the QPR game that day. Did not even see the kick off as I was spotted by the nice ob from the gantry and spent the day in Sheppards Bush nick. Charged and had to appear at Marleybone Magistrates. Quite a few Palace boys nicked that day.
