Re: Wales v Scotland 1977
When I used to go (far more than I do now) to Liverpool games when younger plenty of older LFC fans I chatted with down the years said to me (and there is obviously a history with LFC which if anything strengthens the point I'd have thought) that Wales/Scotland 1977 game was the scariest most nasty/frightening atmosphere they'd ever been at.
That fits in with all the Wales fans I've known who I've spoken with down the years who went as well and everything said here. |

Re: Wales v Scotland 1977
It was the only time I've ever been on the Kop thankfully. I reckon we were working harder than the players trying to keep our footing as the crowd surged up and down the terraces. Horrible experience, horrible result and to cap it off going from working up a sweat inside the stadium to the cold night air outside gave me a cold that lasted a fortnight. A game to forget if ever there was one.

I was 5 at the time Wiltshire Red so don't remember the 1978 world cup (and certainly not Anfield) properly though it's been handed down to me by so many people. I assume at the time though that pretty much all of Wales found it hysterical that the Scots after cheating us and then building themselves up worse than the Sais for that tournament came home humiliated? |

Never forget the glass landing on our heads and thinking 'I'm Irish what am i doing here ?' Always hated Jordan but simply can't hate Dalglish as he was a gentleman and nearly as good a footballer as Graham Whittle. |

Re: Wales v Scotland 1977
Never have I been so happy NOT to get a ticket. Friends that went said it was a nightmare made worse by losing to a cheat and poor referee.
Incredible contrast to attending games at Anfield today - massive organisation and passive crowd control. I would never choose to go over attending a Wrexham match but have enjoyed taking my grandsons. (The deal being if I take you to Liverpool you have to come to watch Wrexham) They have reported me to Social Services,Child Protection. |
