Is that the time the players coach got stoned while leaving the ground after Argyle had the temerity to beat them 2-1, thus spoiling their home run of unbeaten games.

I was there that day. This was before segregation. Never been so frightened in my life
Walking back to the station, along the old Kent road, we were continually stopped, and asked questions, as they were seeking to find out our accents, they then beat us up.
Bunch of thugs, my 60 year old father was attacked, inside the ground.
Remember our first home game after promotion to league 1 under Warnock and we played Millwall at home. Fairly average game, finished as a draw and saw a group of their fans getting back on the bus with their shirts off and blood all over them. Has no place in football.

You would like to think the authorities be it the FA or police would do something about these people but it never has changed and never will. It is one of those games where unless you're prepared to fight you shouldn't really go to, this shouldn't be allowed to happen at a sporting event but sadly it does.
I was surprised by the apparent lack of stewards. I understand that the current Wembley doesn't normally see such invasions and generally it's not the 'done thing' there, but you'd expect such a high profile place to have better contingency plans.

I left the ground that day trying to look glum (for personal safety of course).....down the cobbled Cold Blow Lane... under the railway arches towards Deptford Park where I had parked......got in the car and drove towards Evelyn Street and on towards Greenwich.....only then did I shout out....YES...YES...YES....never had I ever been to an away game where the result was going to be defeat.....only two away points up till then ....and playing a team unbeaten in the league for 59 games......that's what dreams are made of.
Got my tickets for the league 2 final, Blackpool end. At the end of last year's final my son-in-law (sadly a Tottenham supporter) suggested, as we left the ground trying to cheer me up, that the following year if argyle got automatic promotion, then we should return and enjoy the game as neutrals, feeling smug with Tottenham as champions and argyle already up. Sadly for hiim his lot didn't make it, but he kept his word and got the tickets. Can't wait.

I'm out with limited access to internet, are you sure it was Millwall? I was working offshore in NZ at the time but thought Milwall was a few matches into season? Could someone with easy access to GOS pse confirm?
