      It was United fans jailed for trouble on boat and the footage from the documentary “ Holligan” shows West Ham at Sheffield and outside Highbury ,it also shows them being run by United on Warwick road so the “These Colours dont Run” needs to be changed.Oh and as for the Millwall fans being attacked in that pub,it was empty.

      I remember on the way to Stamford bridge 1977 I was about 16 and tube carriage was packed with west ham about same age.
      we got to Viictoria (Chelsea manor) and on the platform was a huge mob (no colours)all scanning the carriages...... You could feel the fear and anticipation as we slowed to a halt,.... we'd been spotted.. What I didn't let my mates know was that I had recognised , 2 (now well known) faces as West Ham, so I started saying out loud "stick together lads" ....."we're West 'am, stand yer ground"!
      As the mob piled onto our carriage people started to recognise each other shaking handsand laughing etc, ....but I got pointed out to these 2 top lads, (who I became good friends with) as a 'proper "game lad' and a.... "bit of a nutter"........it was all bluff I was probably more scared than anyone else had I not seen them!🤣🤣
      Goodison Park back in the day was a great stadium, the old park end and street end with the semi circles behind each goal, i was told that was to stop coins being thrown at goalkeepers? Don't know if that's true? And that 3 tier main stand. Superb👍

You need to learn how to write the script in smaller chunks for your stupid, irritating bot to narrate, rather than having it cover half the screen so you can't see anything going on. Better still, find some software that allows the bot to read the script without it being on the screen at all. People can always use closed captions if they need them.
