Hi Mods & Modettes

Does anyone know something on the mods events of 5th november 1966?
I've heard from mods who have charged with their scooters the Buckingham Palace! But I know nothing more

Thank's in advance

Yes, we went a bit astray here...

Must be a myth.....mod was finished by 1965 apparently.

Mods or not, Damn, what was happening in front of Buckingham this 5th November 1966... (guess it's not a whole fantasy!)

I think I have it.

The mighty Tottenham had just given West Ham another spanking 4-0 and Gilzean scored all 4, perhaps they were waiting for him to get his medal !!

 

Come On You Spurs.............

 

 

 

 

Gilzean? What about Greaves and Bobby Smith, I Saw them many times at the Molinuex, Football was so great then, you can,t beat standing up at a game

Paxton Rd end, a pint of black diamond in each hand , now were talking nostalgia........

Cliff Jones, Terry Medwin, Bill Brown, John White, I,m a Mad Wolves fan, but I remember the Spurs side of the early 60,s really well. We missed the double by 1 point in 59/60, then the year after Spurs did it, then we met in the UEFA Cup Final years later, I Remember running past the main stand at White Hart Lane in 67, a Spurs official came out with 2 tickets, saying , First two can have these! me and my mate got em, can,t remember the score, used to go to all Wolves games then, we always had trouble at Chelsea though, 1000.s of Mods kicking the S***T out of each other!! we often had both sets of fans in the same end at Wolves, no segregation then!  I thought the trouble in the 60,s was bad, but never really publicised,

Ok, as the topic starter seems to have lost interest in this subject (I don't blame him), am I right to assume that this alleged charge on Buck House did not leave an impression on anybody whatsoever?

I am asking because I would see this as the last uproar of the original scooter-Mods, as a lot of Mod-scooters would have disappeared terminally from the public perception that winter. That in itself, I find, would be of major significance.
