Had confirmation today that I need minor surgery on my knee following being injured 'watching' Saints. I was stood in Northam when Saints scored. Some drunken person about 4 rows behind fell over starting avalanche of supporters. I ended up trapped between seat and fallen fans, twisting my knee and tearing my meniscus. Anyone else sustained injuries watching Saints.

Got an accidental punch in face whilst celebrating a Saints goal on the terrace at Plough Lane once. Had a pretty bad nosebleed which ended up all over my t-shirt, and I looked like I had been in a serious ruck. It was a problem getting served in the pubs in London after the game.

 

3-3 draw if I remember.

Once I tried to vault the railing outside the King Alfred and over estimated my athletic abilities resulting in me cracking my shin and landing head first in the road.

 

About a decade ago a load of us had a Blackpool weekend taking in us playing at Anfield. We drew 1-1. After the game we piled into a local pub and stayed too long. On leaving a scouser came up to me with fist raised so I just stopped and stared at him and he backed off. Feeling rather pleased I turned round and walked straight into a lamp post resulting in a nose bleed.

Didn't injure myself, but I was driving out of Wallasey Golf Club when i heard we'd beaten Manure 6-3, celebrated (in so doing I let go of the steering wheel) and stoved the car into a series of small wooden posts, which ripped the **** out of the cills on my car.

Numerous next morning hangovers from hell.

 

also lol at the thumping a light fitting -did that myself when Raziak equalised in the playoffs - luckily not too much damage to the fitting and only a small cut across my knuckles which was long forgotten by the time the pen shoot out had finished.

Broke my ankle outside the Compleat Angler in Norwich after we lost 3-1 in the snow (Belmadi for us and I think an Ashton hat-trick for them). I may have been slightly under the influence but I blame the snow. I didn't find out it was broken until the following day when I woke up and realised that my ankle was rather swollen, after a visit to the QMC in Nottingham I was told that it was broken. The missus who was away on holiday at the time was not happy when she returned ready for Xmas.

Me knee is f*cked from a combination of the Brighton game, and the all day p*ss up that game was part of. Pretty swollen and painful.

 

And my ankle has only recently returned to it's normal size after the goal at Reading, where I ended up on my back in the row infront of where I was stood, with my foot stuck between the 2 seats I had started off standing behind

The day Benali gave John Fashanu a flying lesson! A great day out.

Plenty of cuts and bruises for me over the years, cracking my head a few years ago at Villa Park when Paul Rideout equalized is one the springs to mind.
