I was and it was over the top rammed.
But we thought it was amusing. I had to sneeze without anything over my mouth because I couldn't raise my arms up. It could have been us that day. I wonder how many tickets were sold over the official figures. There were no spaces between the aisles and in the programme it specifically stated that they must be kept clear at all times. Then the loudspeaker asked us to move forward because the passengers from a football special train from Norwich were approaching and needed to get in. In hindsight,I repeat,it could so easily have been us or Everton fans to not return home that awful day.
