What I learned last night...

Lord Football

Blues on Tour
.. that Statler & Waldorf have another brother. If you were one of the three cretins in Row K of the East Stand Black, I'd just like to thank you for making me laugh out loud on several occassions last night.

Some examples. I'll emphasise examples, because this barrage of numptiness went on for the entire duration.

Two minutes in, referee runs in front of us "Oi, ref you are bender". I am wondering where that came from. It was followed up with "oi ref do you come from Brighton" and "you look like a school boy queer". Nice. It set the tone....

Everytime a player miskicked it - "it's always the bloody same" one would say. Another would say "bloody same" and the third "yes, bloody same". This went on for the entire game. Everyone was either a "numpty", a "mug" or a "muppet" (which coming from Statler & Waldorf, was rich)

Adam Barrett got stick. Shocking, yes I know. "Barrett, you are not fit to be a professional." "Barrett, call yourself a pro" and line of the night "Barrett, get your hair cut".

Every Dagenham player was "bent", "gay" or merely just a "homo". Their physio was clearly just "touching them up" when giving treatment.

Despite people openly snickering and sniggering at them, they progressed. Dagenham player called Smith comes down for a throw. "Oi, Smith. You are a w****r". No reason, no thought process.

And then we they did the Alan Hansen thing, debating why players can't do the basics, such as score everytime there is a corner, beat five men etc etc.

Penalties was a hoot. Apparantly McCormack plays with himself and as does Hunt.

And to cap it all, they believe the Daggers were a Confernece outfit.

Whilst most left the ground scratching their heads in bewilderment at what had played out in front of their eyes, I could only laugh.

If you guys are reading this, any chance you could sit in the Family Stand on Saturday. You are far more entertaining than anything that will happen on the pitch.

I know who you mean and cretins is putting it mildly ! They were in at least row N unless there were 3 more like them in row K :confused:
 
There was a bloke in row M who did nothing but moan at every single thing and seemed to have a hate campaign going on for Eric.

He said he had high hopes for him and thought he was going to do well for us but was a useless b**** *******.

He had his two sons with him. Lovely bloke.

Back to the South or Family enclosure for you please.....
 
not sure if this has been covered on here yet, did nicky bailey get a yellow just for the volleyed shot that cleared the stadium?? if so i didnt think you could get booked for a shot, :rolleyes:

He did indeed, ref had no choice as he booted it well after the whistle was blown.

No, these three were placed in seats 129, 130 and 131 of Row K.

Even my 10 year thought their general knowledge of football was, at best, extremely basic.
 
Would like to add that the club got it RIGHT with the pricing structure, a crowd of 5,215 at the Hall was the 2nd Highest of the JPT fixtures played on Tuesday Night.

Well done SUFC, credit where credit is due.
 
The wonderful world of being a football spectator.

I was in a different seat to normal last night so had the pleasure of listening to someone berating Collis during the penalty shoot out for not guessing each one correctly, because it was 'obvious' which side the taker was going to put it???

In the good old days of terracing, you could just move.

Or turn round and respectfully request that he Shuts the F**K up
 
I think the people in question post on here under the guises of Beefy and Loz.

Feel free to negative rep them loads folks. And this is the truth, honest (and not a shallow attempt by myself to get above them in the positive rep league*...)




* Yes, I know. I await the negative rep

Yeah I was a couple of rows back from them and they were annoying me too. One of them screamed out towards Tilson when Dagenham scored their winning penalty but presumably would have gone home happy had McCormack scored his spot-kick.

Had a few guys (Shrimperzone posters from what I heard from their conversation) behind us who were nowhere near as funny as they thought they were too spending the best part of the 90 minutes taking the pi$$ out of Matt Harrold even after he'd gone off. I'd have said something but if I'm going to get into a fight at Roots Hall it won't be in defence of Matt regardless of whether I don't think he's as bad as he's made out or not.

Hopefully I won't have to leave the South from now on.
