I was thinking the other day, about away games I’d been to with latics. One in particular. I think it was when we went up to championship. We played Milwall. Caddy singing let’s hangon, going down on I think one of arky’s.
I hope someone can help me out with this, if you so happened to be on my coach. Going through London, we hit some traffic near a few pubs. Of course there was the usual banter. When all of a sudden the downstairs fire door burst wide open, and out flew this guy ( bald head, looked hard as nails) and ran at pub full of millwall fans. He took it to a few lads then ran back in the bus.
It was one of my earlier experiences of watching latics away.
Just thought it might have jogged a few memories if anyone was on that coach.
Think we got spanked in that game too, maybe 2-0
The good old days :D .I think me and Carl H were supposed to be running that coach for Arky that day. A double decker i think with a couple of dubious films shown on the way down :D . Danny vodka (RIP) had drank a bottle of vodka by Warrington so no suprise what happened later outside that pub.
i dont think i should post his name on here, but it certainly sounds like a certain member of the goon squad to me, was he quite a short fella but massive and scars on his head.
i wasnt on that coach but we drove past that pub ourselves on eavesway if its the same one, it certainly sounds like it.The good old days :D .I think me and Carl H were supposed to be running that coach for Arky that day.

Danny vodka (RIP) had drank a bottle of vodka by Warrington so no suprise what happened later outside that pub.I seem to remember Danny Vodka supping a bottle at 5am on the way to Cheltenham and then another half of one about 9am in Cheltenham, Come to think of it i remember him drinking one outside Wigan college before Stoke away in the F.A Cup. Haha he is a true legend. I drive past his old house in Goldbourne every morning. Remember the couch he had in the back garden.

My recollection of that incident is the people outside the pub taking the pish but the pub was quite set back from the road. Step forward some Millwall fan at a bus stop right by the coach joining in, then the door of the coach flew open etc..
The game was awful. latics got well & truly whalloped, the ref was bricking it from the Millwall fans all game & I think he sent Simon Haworth off
The atmosphere amongst the Latics contingent on the way down & in the ground made it one of the best away trips I’d been on at the time though – did we stop at Borehamwood FC’s ground for some pre-match tipples on the way down??

Haha no mate, Been re-located to Crewe, have a pick up in Abram to make first. A big foul up by my company in Luton a few weeks ago but happy days i am only 40 mins away now.
Just noticed the Golborne spelling error too, Forgive me it was early and i hadn’t had my wheetabix :confusion-seeingstars:
I think he sent Simon Haworth offDidn’t play for us then. Tim Cahill scored his last goal for Millwall though IIRC.
.I think me and Carl H were supposed to be running that coach for Arky that day.
Aye fekin supposed to be, ha fckin ha.
That day there were two coaches, one was a double decker with all the fekin riff raff on up to all sorts!!
Anyway, I gets a call from the local Bermondsy OB asking which coach I am on. I ask why. He says because there is a bloke sat on the roof of the double decker a mile from the ground giving the locals some abuse, and he is supping a bottle of vodka.!!!Our Danny had only climbed on the roof of the bus through the fekin sunroof. God bless him.
PS at least the sunroof stayed on, not like the one that blew off at Knutsford one freezing wednesday night on the way to West Ham. Now that WAS a cold journey.
Happy days indeed.
Maybe I should write a book.PPS Mr. Bolton, I beleive you are getting a new dog and naming it Scottie.If I’m being a nosy parker I apologise. LOL.
