Old muckers pictures

Pretty sure page2 picture 7 was after Nobbers game at Blackpool North, I'm in there somewhere.
 
Anyone remember the founder members from the 60’s.

Remember a guy called Joey who wore a studded leather jacket “ Blackpool Rocker”.

Another character who wore leather with a peaked cap and sunglasses.

Never got involved, ever. If you get you kicks, knocking the shyte out of someone, you’ve totally lost the plot!

I wouldn’t have qualified to join in. I wasn’t thick enough!

‘I want to knife a Preston bastard’

Perhaps one of the tough lads on here can explain why, when the violence and the threats reach their natural conclusion, everyone gets a bit precious

There were lots of similar painted messages in the 1970s on walls, tended to be on the train route between Blackpool North and Preston. And someone will correct me if I am wrong but I seem to recall BFC graffiti on the walls leading into Preston Station from the North.
 
these pics sum up for me football hooligansim in the 80's. Lots of running around and squaring up but virtually no actual fighting, and when there is is about five lads attacking another.

Rather ironic given the size of your gob, on a keyboard.

I bet the only time you were brave was in a large group, kicking the life out one bloke.

You’re just pathetic!

How very true.
I presume your referring to the Kevin Olsson incident?

Yes, and for years on their supporters club at the town end of the ground, in 1 meter letters

Don’t think they need to be tough to explain to you, just a bit of common knowledge will suffice.

Football violence is not for me and never will be.

I have no doubt that those who did get involved in the 80's would batter the pavement dancers of today with their hands tied behind their backs.

That far less people get seriously injured these days because the fighting is more tame is something that I consider to be a good thing.

There's a couple of photos from Gigg Lane.
Bury vs Blackpool March 1985.- The Gazette described the day as "an orgy of violence and destruction" inside (and outside) Gigg Lane in what was claimed to be a coordinated incident. 64 arrests and apparently 5 cops injured. And a second FA Disciplinary investigation, following events the month before at Chester.

I'm not trying to glorify it btw, just stating what happened.
