Can anyone remember the game after which newcastle fans made human chains to get down the central motorway in order to get at the opposition coaches (I think it was a London team probably Chelsea and assume it was the 1970's)

You clearly don't know the answer to the question so instead of making smart arsed (not) comments why not consider this quote which could have been written for you:

Now I see why you're struggling to understand - why didn't you just ask for clarification rather than act retarded, the motorway as it is and has as far as I remember been called has a flyover bit so there are 2 levels (still with me?) the people from the upper level climbed over the edge and formed a human chain vertically climbing over each other to get down to the lower level (still there?) where the coaches were travelling not parked. And after I've wasted my time explaining this you still can't help - are you a mackem by any chance?
PS Google "Newcastle Central Motorway" if you still doubt it exists

Well paulos66, surely you can see why this question is so confusing for someone unfamiliar with Newcastle? I have been to Newcastle a few times and never knew that there was a tiny section of motorway in the centre. Also, you did not make it clear that the human chain you were on about was going to a different level, it sounded as though there were a load of people linking arms on the central reservation or something! Sorry I don't know the answer to your question but it does explain why when I went to see Liverpool play away at Newcastle in the 80's the police brought all the coaches to the back of the away end and escorted them out of Newcastle, and for people like us who had travelled by car they gave us a lift in a black moira back to our car!
