nearly had my face spliced in half by a boro lad "mixed race", had a reading skinhead try and slash me down their in 86 and one of hickeys chelsea lads tried to stab me with a pair of scissors in 82, had me on my toes but dropped the same cunt in the leystand couple of hrs later after spotting him, this time nowt in his hands, blades stanleys in particular seemed par for the course between 83-87, we had certain lads who carried, one in particular who stabbed his best pal to death, another one of ours murdered by some cunt 10yrs back carryin a blade, no need for um in my view but we all know it happened, always thought it was a north west thing to start with but a general problem once it caught on which it did
