Used to go to most away games from 80s onwards and wandered what stories fellow blues have of being in with home fans? Didn’t go for trouble just fancied watching from a different view to the away ends. Chelsea in there main stand, no bother. Same with Palace and Grimsby. Bristol City, now that was fun! 2 hour car journey peeing down all the way then 20 minute walk when finally got parked. Drenched when got to ground thought we’d go in main stand. Ok until Johnny Beresford put us 1 up. Must have been 20 or so Pompey dotted around main stand went up and the locals weren’t happy. All settled down until Johnny B got a second. Big guy next to me stood up put his glasses in his pocket and said ‘get them out of here’ to witch a few blues were advised to leave and were escorted out by stewards. He sat down mumbling something to me in his yokel accent. Second half they were getting more and more wound up with losing and some of the refs decisions even I joined in with them on an offside call, great fun! Happy days.
