Good coverage of the 70s, but missed Wolves-Man Utd with United getting chased out of the George 1978 and mass trouble by the subway afterwards, also Cov away just before the Liverpool home game. There were 111 arrests v Chelsea in 1977, and 79 arrests v Leeds in another Molineux match not mentioned here, in the FA Cup QF at Molineux in 1977. Leeds brought 12,000 amongst a 50,000 crowd and that was chaos with no fence. For a relatively small Black Country town, Wolves could be a tough mob, especially with Temple Street mob and Subway Army. CCTV killed it, and gladly so in the late 90s onwards. Subway Army weren't really still in existence by the time Scarboro happened in 1987, in fact that was just a piss up at a seaside town gone wrong and arguably started by Scarboro/Leeds fans after the lad fell through the roof. Incidents missed out include Subway Army in the Peacock at Leeds before the murder back in Wolverhampton, and many of their antics in the 80s, such as Arsenal outside the Holte End FA Cup SF at Villa, or Liverpool and Newcastle at Molineux. Also missed Wolves v Stoke at both grounds which has a history as long as your arm, Wolves in Boothen End 1975, fighting in Boothen Paddock 1979, Wolves also been in Stoke city centre in the 00s and as recently as a couple of years back. Stoke have been in Wolverhampton several times too and are very much respected in Wolverhampton. Also missed Blues v Wolves Moseley Road late 90s/early 00s, which was a very serious incident involving YYA I think, as well as other 90s/00s matches at both grounds v Blues. Also Leeds v Wolves FA Cup QF at Elland Road 1997, or Wolves away at Liverpool in the Cup about a decade ago, and Luton away in the Cup. Overall, Forest and Man United away in the 70s were the worst games I've been too or heard about from a Wolves perspective, but Man Utd away was simply due to vast numbers. Forest in the 70s, in fairness held their own on the unfenced South Bank but it was volatile. And overall, apart from Man Utd, I would say the London firms (Chelsea, West Ham, Spurs, Millwall), plus Forest, Everton, Boro, Stoke, Leeds, Blues, Cardiff were the worst firms which stand out, but all the midland firms are good on their day including WBA, Villa, Cov, Leicester, Derby etc. Also, less obvious clubs that stand out like Pompey, Swansea, both Bristols, Burnley, Grimsby, Vale, Bradford, Newport, Wrexham

And yet you watched the video about it?So does that make you more sad?

@thekearoldgold no mate you watch things to see what goes on you hear about football violence but sometimes we need to see things with our own eyes. But everyone is entitled to there opinion if you think it's sad of me that's fair enough

No

Maybe not compared to chelsea, West Ham, millwall, Cardiff, Man utd, but on their day would give most a go, certainly at Molineux. Like most midland firms they didnt have the numbers. The Temple Street and Subway were well handy though.

Everton not in top 10,really.
