The old place was full of charecters full of funny lads hurling abuse at the oppo wingmen my favorite was that bloke who looked like rodney off ofah (gary think his name was) esp remember a young eddie riddlesdon getting it for a full 40 "who on ya head said who on ya heads! GENIUS

You might wanna talk to biffa.fc, tmtbf, The Brother and homer hfc.

"Tex Evans, Tex Pi55 more like"
then there was the guy who looked like the missing Chuckle Brother, wandered up and down behind the dugout telling the opposition subs to sit down, move etc for the entire game!

Couple of incidents which i fondly remember, but do not condone



1. A banana being thrown at Martin Offiah who picked it up and took a bute and threw it back. I thought that was brilliant at the time as he could have kicked up a fuss about it.

2. also, when we had lloyd in charge the tennis balls being thrown onto the pitch! there was also the england internation that was being played there, and the two lads went on the pitch with the banner "were black, were white, we'll never merge with sh*te on it"

I remember mcnamara passing to that side of the pitch, and i always believed that he did that so the cameras saw the banner!!

That was his name,I know him quite well.

How about Giggsy...baz

There was a dugout on the threepenny side of the pitch?

the tennis ball incident was funny,i rember some one asked the stewards for them back but they was having none of it


thought chanting BEEF BEEF BEEF at french was class it was at the time when they had banned brithish beef

Especially remember Giggsy with a dart incident at Barrow.LMAO...

Was that the lad who had a dart thrown at him at Barrow,was at that match

looks like he was wrong then!

I remember that incident well,he just carried on cheering the team

Another time involving him that was funny during a pitch invasion at keithley he spotted the press man clicking away with his camera so he chased him got the camera n jumped on it under the sticks! Lol happy days!

Singing...." feed the miners " to the tune of feed the world to Featherstone during the miners strike.

Someone one called Mick ( still sits in South Stand and is often asleep through drink during the game ) who always pushed in at the last minute to get his spot....much the same as I did when I was old enough to !!

When Bradford were sponsored by SGS someone shouted to Ellery, Oy Ellery does SGS stand for Siily Great S..bo ? NOT THESE DAYS !

Priceless.

'"

your not wrong

another classic "big al" going bollocko on the table in that pub outside cas' ground!!

How about Birchy (homer fc) with his high pitched chants, quality

What about Marcus,always spitting at everyone.

Still reckon he had something going on with 'Mad Maggy'

Fame at last



I don't remember him being a character, just a foul mouthed so and so

Now ,now,lets not get too nostalgic

Loads of laughs from some great characters.My favourite time was early eighties and the songs from a section of the crowd lead by a guy called Stan.How they used to think of the lyrics is beyond me.
Happy days and something the sterility of the KC wont ever have IMO.

It is just amazing the place never caught fire with the ritual burning of the Rovers scarf in the rafters every week!!

Then there were the throwing of coins (pieces of silver) onto the pitch near Schofield when he came visiting and the shouts of "in off the Black" when the ball hit Barrends on the head and shot into touch! Totally un Pc but pretty brilliant back then!!
