Having just read about Orient away years back I was reminded of about 50/60 punks and skins who were there.
I spent most of the day with them and tbh they were fukkin brilliant.
Anybody else remember them?
They managed to get a couple of bottles of pernod into the game and drank their arses off throughout the match.
I,ve got one photo of them somewhere at Cambridge away but only about thirty of them by then.
Any names for this bunch of fruitcakes????

I know when I used to go and watch The Damned there was a lot of Palace shirts around,can remember seeing them at The I.O.W Punk festival back In 79 and there was a lot of Palace shirts and It nearly came to blows with a set of mouthy Pompey supporters,Rat Scabies being the main Instigator. although he was loaded at the time.

I rememeber a lot of the CPL punks, a couple of them still go to Palace tho the piercings and tartan trousers are long gone, one of them drinks in the Clifton every home game round by the tv, Cant for the life of me think of his name tho, He's a part of history,I recalll seeing him in the late 70's and early 80's
Not a punk but Monty (Madmonty) was in the Glaziers lounge Sat took me back many a year seeing him again!!!

This reminds me of a story my mate told about a punk guy he encountered some years ago.

My mate won a scholarship to a private school in Bristol and every day he had to walk through a large park to get there from his home wearing the loud stripey blazer that was part of his uniform.

One monday morning a punk guy got hold of him and said "OI, rich cnut, give me your dinner money!"

My mate said, "I'm not rich, I won a scolarship to go to this school."

Quick as a flash the punk came back with, "Alright brainy cnut, give me your dinner money!"

Kids,tired of being bothered by your pesky parents?
Then leave home, get a job & pay your own bills, while you still know everything.

Wasn't that at Vicarage Road? The play off 2nd leg in 2006? That was one of the highlights of a surprisingly brilliant evening, despite the result and AJ's farewell...
