Just discovered this - fascinating stuff, in comparing how away games were policed back then, compared to how they are now. It's part of a BBC documentary from 1987, on the Portsmouth hooligan group, the 657 gang. What's interesting is the last 4 minutes (beginning at the 8:10 mark) is all about the Everton fans, on the coaches, how they get treated, shepherded into the ground and told that they 'won't be going anywhere near a pub', then the locking of the gates and loads of Blues not allowed in, fuming.

Worth a watch, particularly the Everton bit:
