Best Away fans at Goodison

[ValBlue]

Think a lot of it was bravado. Remember they jumped the barrier and about 6 stewards held them off, absolute clowns.

They were ripping out chairs and lashing them

Where? Surely they couldn't rip the wooden ones out of the Bullens? They have 100 years worth of paint you'd have to prize off to get to them chairs.

They’re the reason the bloody hanging net went up, because they threw stuff at the Park End and the Park End threw it all back at them.

Prior to the match, I’d spoken to a few in a pub in town, and the small sample I met were more than pleasant, and were well behaved.

If you’ve worked in the Balkans though, you’ll know they’re all fluffin mad once they decide to kick off.

The silence from their ultras at home when Siggy slotted.

I was on holiday in Pula on the return leg supping in the famed Shipyard pub watching on tv. Place erupted when that screamer went in and was getting ragged by celebrating Croats. Then Iceland scored and I slipped out of the door while I could.

You must have been unlucky to bump into that many Hajduk fans in Pula. Dubrovnik, Cavtat, Mostar and Zadar you have loads of them.

Worst - Blackburn Rovers. Bringing a couple of hundred to Goodison years back. Disgraceful from a team in the top flight. and especially it only being a short journey.

Yeah used to bring couple of hundred tops for a Saturday 3pm kick off

 

[SMIGGER 62]

Best fans I’ve seen at Goodson was Sunderland in the late seventies when they needed to stay up big Bob latch and Rioch put them down must have been 10 -12 thousand who came down .Coventry had a delayed kick off and jimmy hill put the score while they were still playing with a another relegation threaten team they both only needed a draw guess what happened they hated him and Coventry for years afterwards!

Feyenord…

Purely for their rendition of…

“Everton Everton your the **** of Merseyside “ in perfect English.

As a kid after the match we walked the wrong way around the ground to go and look at the brand new club shop (Everton 1?). We walked into the Feyenoord fans. Horrible. Clung to a lamppost as the police horses charged. Understood instantly why they use horses!

“Ooh ay Feyenord”

Yeah they ripped a few of them off threw some bits and then pretended to rush the Park End but acted like the 5 stewards and couple of coppers were a SWAT team and they went back to where there seats would’ve been had they not ripped them out.

Saw it with my own two eyes and it was contrived and pathetic

And then the away leg they proceeded to pick off fans when suited them in numbers.

I’ve met them all over Croatia. Their story/history is an interesting read. Was there one year when they had a huge celebration (some kind of anniversary if I remember correctly) in Split….it was incredible all through the night. Must have been a million euros worth of fireworks.

Like I know Europe has its “Ultras” and uber fans etc, I personally don’t agree with it and I think being like that about a game is utterly stupid but I understand that’s some fan groups identity. That lot though, were only trying to be like that and doing a terrible job at it. Scores of them joined this place too saying they’d cursed the club

 

[Roger Milla]

Was near them in the park end and genuinely never seen anything like it, didn’t feel safe at all

2 stewards stopped about 50 of them getting to the PE

Anyway, Zenit the best for me.

 

[PercyPlant]

Benfica. Absolutely class. Never seen anything like it. They’d already qualified and spanked us 5-0 earlier. I don’t think I’ll ever see better away support.

They were a weird bunch. I swear they kicked off because the Park End started singing. I also remember a ball boy doing keppy uppies about 5 yards in front of them while they were pretending to rush the Park End

 

[Lineker]

Being an old git. The QPR game in 1985 when we won the league. QPR fans stayed in the ground and cheered our players as they paraded the trophy. Always had a soft spot for them after that. I hope they get back in the prem one day.

I've had a soft spot for them as welll...it may be the hoops. Need a team with hoops in the pre. Last one was reading if I'm not mistaken.
