Aizoon Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 Why should I go to the football if: I can't swear because it upsets the kiddies I can't boo because it upsets the players I can't drink because SYP lied about Hillsborough I can't stand because (see above) I can't complain because City play lovely tippy tappy football At least I can have a pint while I watch the Glos being stuffed and they have at least won some hit 'n giggle this year...

Swear as much as you like if you're not in the 'family' area. Pretty sure you can boo if you want, though you have to accept that people may not agree with you. Two 45 minute periods without drinking shouldn't spoil your day. You can stand, if you have a ticket in the right area. And feel free to complain if you don't like what is served up!

It's not a necessity, it's a pleasure. I hear that they're quite popular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 It is mainly poor refs that cause me to swear aloud at games. Oliver Langford has got the brunt of it before from me....but I thought he did what was expected today. Linesman on LS side was crap though! However, the BCTV guys are now occupying the wheelchair section (Frankie Fielding was therefore in the building - co-commentating) so I might need to be more careful.

About as secret as it gets No I missed that! I was hurting by being called a millennial.. haha.. but that’s amazing though! I love history, Especially learning about WW2 and the effort by everyone. I always say if I could go out for a beer with anyone, it’d be with uncle Albert from only fools.. he had some stories! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
