I saw a bloke smack a police dog in the face away to Peterborough which was funny because they arrested him for assaulting a policemen.

Have posted this on here, but got a half-decent kicking after the Cup match away at Hereford in 97/98 season.

Walking through the car park after the match and a group of blokes took expection so something my sister said and started pushing her around, probably to provoke me. Anyway, I took the bait and pushed one of them, giving them the perfect excuse to take out their small-town/small-mind frustrations on my face.

Was quite lucky to get away with a few cuts and bruises.

Please define what a half decent kicking means?

Yes, odd that. The only time I decided to stand and fight as opposed to treating it like the running bulls (at Palermo or wherever it is) was against Palace at the Goldstone. There were a group of Brighton fans (including me) in one of those roads parallel with Goldstone Lane. I was thinking "well it's only Palace, not a club with tough fans, it's not like I'm going to get hurt or anything as they're all such weedy little malnourished oiks". Anyway the Palace fans charged and I stood my ground. I then realised I was on my own as all the other Brighton fans HAD run away, leaving me with no choice but to leg it after them.

Do you still shave your head?

(PS: Having re-read a load of old PM's last night, I have a strong suspicion that you sat next to a Cardiff fan at the play-off final.....)

Half-decent kicking is a term which I have invented myself, this morning, for my own purposes.

In this case it means:

Having your arms held behind your back while several blokes punch you in the face and kick you in the stomach, while your sister watches, screaming at them to stop.

How's that?

:)

When was that in the Zenith cup game when we only had about 500 fans there.

DITTO.............. '79 to '84........... West St etc

A funny moment though, a pal of mine as we were leaving a bit early from Wembley after the replay in '83, as we were coming round the back of the stands he got angry after buying 2 hamburgers and attacked a man u fan whilst still holding a burger in each hand. Tomato sauce and burger everywhere.......... we did chuckle.

Swansea away on a Friday night (won 1 - 0 Andy Kennedy scored). We got ambushed down the sea front walking back to B & B. Just hit and hoped as we was out numbered about 2 to 1. Swansea old bill saw what was happening and just drove away. Managed to put one of them over a wall with one punch which was pleasing in a funny way. Been attacked by police in Poland in 1997.

Like someone has said on here though if you go around in a group chances are you may get lumped.

No - think David Ginola.

*ahem*

Funny you should say that. You actually sat next to my sister and daughter and friend. Lush got their tickets at the same time. My neice is loud and Welsh, and was wearing a blue boa.
