Posted November 28, 20159 yr There's a thread on here about taking ends in the 60s/70s http://www.theshedend.com/topic/21797-how-many-home-ends-you-been-in/ In this thread it's stated that..... Wolves (North Bank) - 'We're the boys in royal blue, we took Molineux' used to echo around the Bridge in the early 70's, as we nearly always took a mob into their end and took it. The exception was the 76/77 game which we were banned from, but we took a huge mob up there anyway and the police had to put us in the South Bank to keep us off the streets. Big ruck at HT in the bar, then another on the pitch afterwards (thanks to the police for that one, both sets of fans were celebrating promotion together before the old bill stepped in for no good reason). Well, as a self confessed Wolves fanatic and quite partial to a bit of Argy-Bargy in my younger years I think it's time we put the record straight. The one and only time Chelsea ever came into the North Bank was a particularly cowardly event in the 77/78 season. From 74 onwards the Wolves mob where in the South Bank and this particular night, we were situated right next to each other. So what did the brave lads of Chelsea do 15 before the end. They left the South Bank to confront......the old men, kids and women of the North Bank! It wasn't even a "taking", you just caused mayhem and confusion and many people were crushed that night, kids & women! In all my years I have seen great mobs and Chelsea were a decent mob, but that night they crossed the line and decended into a pathetic bunch of cowards! Most older Wolves guys think it was the most cowardly act they ever saw. You probably don't rate Wolves these days, but I can tell you the South Bank was quite well respected, ask Leeds about their boxing day massacre of Boxing day 77. So No, you didn't take the North Bank every year, but yes, you were cowardly once when it was full of old men and women & kids. So stop the lying. No-one took the Wolves North Bank from what I remember, although as I say, after 74, it would have been liking taking candy from a baby. No one took the South Bank either after Wolves relocated there in 74. In 78 the fence went up and we were segregated, but the 4 years in between gave you lot ample opportunity to take it, but you never did. No-one did. I have also had this problem with West Ham saying they took the North Bank and again, it's a lie. I just don't see the point of bigging yourselves up with lies, so someone pass this onto the Shed history forum, as it's restricted to me.
November 28, 20159 yr Author Oh and I forgot to mention, we all know West Ham and even Arsenal used to take the Shed on many occasions, so get off your high horses. You might have been decent them days, but even you weren't impenetrable were you now, lol. I mean Arsenal, c'mon, what's all that about?

November 28, 20159 yr We've had some sad rival fans on here buy this man tops it lol how sad. Not so sure about 'oldschool' , should be 'still at school'.
November 29, 20159 yr On the topic of cowardly, would it also apply to a man who did nothing when innocent children, women and old men were under attack by a mob (well nothing aside from making an online post 40 years later)? Or, would cowardly apply to the Wolves mob, who sat beside the Chelsea mob in the south end, who just sat and watched the Chelsea mob walk from the south to north end to wreak havoc on the innocent masses? To me, its clear that either your version is quite far from the truth or the Wolves mob, and you if you were there, we're equally cowardly to let it happen...
November 29, 20159 yr Oh my god, what a loser. Signing up to a rival forum just to say that, what a complete waste of time.
November 29, 20159 yr This thread is gold. Cheer up oldschool make yourself a nice cup of bovril and get over it.
November 29, 20159 yr Yeah ,cheers for that, cool story, should be a film, Matt Damon to play you. Lol
November 29, 20159 yr We had the liquidator first. The liner notes for Trojan Records' Harry J & All Stars best of compilation start with this paragraph: "Way back in 1969, supporters of the Chelsea football team revered players such as Bonetti, Osgood and Hollins. The boys performed under the watchful eye of manager Dave Sexton to the tune of Harry J & The All Stars chartbuster, "The Liquidator". Whether the tune helped the squad in their successful FA Cup campaign and subsequent Cup Winners Cup victory we shall never know. One thing is certain, the theme to those victories was undoubtedly "The Liquidator", with its Hammond organ crescendos that led to the chant of "CHEL-SEA!" And there's absolutely no mention of Wolves anywhere in the liner notes.
November 29, 20159 yr What makes me laugh is how the big hard men of the South Bank let thousands of Chelsea fans who shouldn't have even been in the ground take the piss out of them at the promotion clincher in '77. Watch the video on youtube and Chelsea are smack in the middle so that's pretty much taking it as far as I'm concerned, or maybe Wolves were all in the North Bank with the kids, ladies and old men that day.
November 29, 20159 yr Brummie c##t spanked a few of yr boys back in the 80s but i wont sink to yr level & sign up on a wolves forum to boast about....tosser get a life!!! KTBFFH....

November 29, 20159 yr What an embarrassment, have you just plucked up the courage to tell us that fiction ? after nearly 40 years.
November 30, 20159 yr You would think that 40 years on, this guy might have realised that what he was doing was pretty f**king stupid. “The man who views the world at 50 the same as he did at 20 has wasted 30 years of his life.” ? Muhammad Ali
November 30, 20159 yr You should carry on the old tradition old school. There is an added bonus these days. Your front door coming off its hinges at 5am and the hardest mob in the country arresting u and throwing you in the shovel. Then you can see if you and ur mob can walk back from the showers in a starlight line.
