Grimsby Pitch Invasion

[Co-op Stand Imp]

County Cup 75 a few days after our failed promotion bid. There were clashes in the six yard box.

Yes. GT came on the tannoy and asked Lincoln fans to stay where they were and “let the police deal with them”.

Can anyone remember the game when Grimsby invaded the pitch at half time and made a charge toward the Railway End.No one got in there as far as I can remember.I think this happened in a League Cup tie back in August 1970. A few weeks later we played them in a Div.4 game and the Police lined up on the half way line during the interval to prevent a repeat occurence !

I have a faint recall that was the match when the bridge collapsed over the Sincil Drain dumping many a cod in to the murky depths.

There was a good photo in the Chronical of the Grimsby "Bovver Boys" charging across the pitch. I think the police dog chased them back.

Wasn't that a late Murphy era early or pre season game? Something along the lines of getting everyone on the pitch for an attempt at the most people doing Agadoo. As soon as the music started everyone started scrapping on the pitch and Cwish trying to calm it down over the tannoy.

I thought the world Agadooing contest attempt was in the F A Cup when we played Billingham Symphonia?

Oh, I was kind of close. Rather sadly I seem to remember the video for Agadoo was filmed on Lincoln High Street

I recall all 10 of them doing a conga on a empty west Bank.

Wasn’t that Sheff Utd around 1965?

That was my initial thought-I think this was 1964.

 

[Merthyr Imp]

We played Sheffield United in the FA Cup in the 1963/64 season with over 18,000 there.

I tend to think it was around that time the bridge collapsed but can't find any details at the moment.

Yes, the Cinderella Rockerfella girls who started it were non too impressed when we joined in ??

It was definitely versus Hull City. Their fans were in The South Park Stand for some reason.
