With regards to to the taking of the North Bank, I was at one of the games in the 80s in the Clock end, getting the best view of us taking it - like the parting of the Dead Sea, it was spectacular. Unfortunately I also witnessed the Spammers taking a chunk of the Park Lane too, which was anything but spectacular.
The sensible part of me is glad those days are over, but the devil in me misses the excitement and atmosphere generated. Not that I ever got directly involved, but there was an element of notoriety in being a football supporter back then, which I quite revelled in.
