Just got mesen thinking (it's dangerous I know). Looking around a few boards and fell upon the service crew and they happen to have pasted a thread from this site regarding top 3 firms, anyway they seem absolutley adamant that they took over our town in 84 and their version of events over more recent meetings with us in leeds seems to be completley different to my version, so i understand there is a load of shite posted by nobs but why can honest folks stories differ so much depending on which side of the fence you sit?
When we went to leeds in the cup a few years ago my view - we met very early in bradley (11ish?) while more met in cleckheaton, we then all arrived in Leeds at 1.30ish when for a drink in walkabout where I would say we ended up 100-150 handed, one taxi bumped in to a load of leeds and it may be fair to say came off 2nd best.
The lot of us then leave walkabout and walk from there to Yates's with at the most 2 old bill, this walk is from one end of leeds to the other and we march completley unaposed, (I do really wish we had gone in to spencers like) anyway in yates more and more town keep arriving and we are locked down by old bill but eventually we see some leeds knocking about, window gets put through as we try to get out to em but by then old bill have it sorted. At the game as soon as if finish we walk together turn right and fly straight in to leeds, one leeds lad stands (game as fuck aswell) rest are off on their toes, the lad that stands gets pumelled, that is what I witnessed with my own eyes no bull shit just the truth as i see it.
Leeds version- we got taken by police to yates with a massive escort, they did our top boys, and the lads outside the ground were shirties.
Genuine question - "How can two stories of the same incident be so different?",
