I could also put this under scariest ground. The game against Millwall at the Den when the Chelsea youth player got stabbed. It was anight game and I went on my jack(now I know why), caught a tube from Hammersmith. Ax we got neare the ground the tube became more and more intimidating with Milwall tatoos on necksand arms. Got out of the tube and it was like the wild west. Anyone walking towards the ground were dealt with by small groups of Milwall coming the other way. A few wacks as you went past until you were on the floor, then they walked off to the next victim.
When we got to the turnstile entrance there were high walls either side and bottles were raining down on us. Was very relieved to get into the ground because Chelsea had such a good away following...... Not that night, came out and there were a few fans scattered across the terrace.
I vowed then and there if I ever got out alive I would never go ther again. And I never have.
Was frightened for my life coming out so spent the whole game talking to other fans. Eventually found someone who came by car and offered me a lift. Went the opposite way out of the ground to all the fans using the tube. The lad gave me a lift back to Hammersmith.
Mate if you are out there I felt I owed you my life that night.
For me there is no contest Milwall is/was the place.
