Been watching it. Some episodes a bit dull I thought but the Carlisle v Bradford one was a decent watch.
Interesting to see that they now see Cocaine as well as beer as a huge issue currently something I have noticed too and not just from young oiks.

This gripped my shit marsh. I finally got round to taking my lad to his first match (sadly against Swansea) this season and he was borderline pissing his pants bless him because arseholes in the cubicles were snorting Coke in the toilets. Call me old but theee young men coming out of a toilet cubicle when I was younger meant a completely different thing. Easier to smuggle a bag of coke in mri a match then a bottle of 20/20 (one for the older people amongst us!)

Great few episodes. Shows also that fans are treat with respect by police in the UK. Only way you're getting into trouble is if you go looking for it.
The episode with the Italy away game in Napels was a disgrace in terms of how the fans were treat at the stadium and this is where FIFA need to focus their attentions at times.

Even as a one-time irregular coke-head I can't understand sniffing at football, what's the point? I always viewed it as a "night out enhancer" not something for going to footy where you're surrounded by kids. It's expensive enough without paying for a couple of gram too, bloody weirdo idiots.

When I was a lad he was called Dave (I forgot his last name) but what I do remember is shortly after having my collar felt he was on the "Price is right" won the lot π

Cocaine is completely ruining football. Sheffield Wednesday fans already talking amongst themselves about having an unofficial, self-policed coke stand and one coke-free to stay away from the knobheads.

Why snort that crap, in fact they should have sniffer dogs and if they are caught they should be banned from all football grounds and taken to court.

I don't know how people get away with taking drugs nowadays
The company I work for do random drugs tests every week..one of our team had been taking over the counter ibuprofen and he failed a drugs test last week
I now have to let my boss know if I ever take ibuprofen or cough medicine like benadryl in advance so if I get tested and fail they know the reason why

Mixing cocaine and alcohol is a great way to speedrun severe liver damage, too. Coke slows the body's ability to process alcohol and also suppresses the "I've had enough now" instinct... meaning you can give yourself alcohol poisoning without realising it.
Also makes you act like a knobhead, which is a far greater crime.

Yep, that's one of the effects of taking coke (and speed); you don't feel the alcohol, but then you stop taking the drugs and the alcohol hits you in a big blast. Helps you drink more to start with, but then you CAN become severely overwhelmed if you don't know what you're doing.

McSweeney Used to play cricket against him when the Police still had their Woodfield Park sports facilities. Left arm dibbly dobblers, from memory. There was nearly always a copper on the last Golcar bus on Fri & Sat nights, back in the early '80s. Usually a bloke known as Piggy Riordan. Doubtless he'll be well remembered by a few that frequent this very parish as he spoke to most of those at the back by name.

Can't say I remember anyone by that name , saying that , I was usually far gone by that time.. The last bus 11.05 (fish and chips at either cliff ash or the junction) , would never have dreamt of getting a taxi in those days π

Those Carlisle chaps looked a rough bunch after a punch up with the Chickens. I remember going up there once and Towns fans chased them all over the place

Anne-Marie McAnerney (sp?) was her name. Might have had a younger brother.

It makes you realise how many local bobbies there were in those days , by how many of those police semi detached houses you see about today. Our local Bobbie when I was a young en was PC Sykes . I remember one day when I was sat outside Frank Knights shop in Golcar holding a pea shooter . PC Sykes walked past and said "Fire that at me young lad , and I'll give you a whack round the head". For some unknown reason I did , and he did , and it fucking well hurt as well π
