About this deal

Was in the Masonic on North Street with a few old faces at the Stoke game and this game got discussed with a City legend who was there - good days..

Haven’t writ “in forever”, as my less-refined Yank compatriots might say, but I had to relate a HMHB reference (tangential though it might be).Now I seem to remember that the match you are talking about was a midweek game as it was rearranged after the death of Diana.

Brilliant documentary & this is real Millwall not spotty underdeveloped kids who'd have trouble spitting on their bottom lip. when we were crap...Grimsby the seaside town awash with Chelsea .. hull city 18 thou inside 9thou Chelsea ..sheff utd the kop full of Chelsea.... I could go on .. massive away support.....I have been watching the transfer window tonight .an everton fan said we were a small club with no history before abramovich... god that so winds me up Anyway main memory I recall was Millwall fans in 2001 , throwing a load of seats- I'm fairly sure it was reciprocated but also didn't Millwall try to refuse to pay for damage? Fellow Millwall fan, Kevin Downey, 55, knew Tiny since the mid-seventies and said despite his name he was “larger than life”. “He was quite a comedian – “he’d always make you laugh,” he said fondly. “When you walked in the room he’d put a smile on your face.” Being 56 years of age now, I remember CBL also as the scariest place to be (or not to be) in the 80s. Went with other German Blues to the match and were surrounded by little rats of them (aged 15 or 16) with stanley knives and other tools. Managed to get out of this place, but it was scary there and no Old Bill to be seen for miles.The graffiti was from the early 80s I assume when a certain bunch of City (remain nameless) sprayed up the entire ground the night before. I was at the game the following day as a young 18 year old in the early 80s on CATS. It all went off during the match when coach loads of “City’s finest” turned up 30 minutes into the 1st half (coach drivers got lost). The ground started to empty as Millwall fans tried to pour out to see what was happening. In those days, Bristol City had a big rep and feared noone.

Millwall invaded the pitch at the end and came up to our end but we were on the upper tier only (trouble had been anticipated) so it was restricted to their throwing things and City throwing things including some ripped up plastic chairs. I was at a late 90s game at the New Den, City lost, there was unrest at the club and a demo planned to protest against their then Chairman Peter Mead, of the gun manufacturers. I was still at school and was the only one of mates who went that day, same as to spuds away a couple of years earlier in a night game where a small group of us went inyo the park lane end (i stayed in there the whole game).

The Camberwell-born entrepreneur has joined forces with Tiny’s family to celebrate his memory while raising money to help train young people and get them into work.
