Always great to hear fans personal experiences of Blues throughout the years.

We have all done or seen crazy/funny things that just would not happen in todays sanitised world.

Fans opening gates at various grounds, climbing over the roof at oxford, being lifted over walls, watching from a vantage point outside of a ground etc etc and the list goes on.

Are you referring to Good Friday 1972, @ Oxford, we took some Irish guys to that game who were stopping at our family home at the time! They were shitting themselves with the crush and amazed at the number of peeps up there on a corrugated iron roof LOL

LOL this must be a thing at Oxford as it was in the 90s I saw it happen. We were all packed in the away end like sardines and with loads outside suddenly they started coming over the stand to our left that had home fans in. After a while the home fans were moved down the stand to allow more Blues in. From what I remember none of those that came over the roof and dropped in to the stand were ejected.

I remember that at Oxford, in the Barry Fry days. The Blues fans came via the bowling green and before you knew it there were about 30 on the roof of the side stand and a few of the home fans quickly 'moved' to accommodate them!
