Southport Red Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 Don't know how many of you know this but there is a large shopping complex in Liverpool (think Scouse Cabot Circus) called Liverpool One. When the new shopping complex opened, Everton opened a shop to sell club memorabilia etc and decided to call it 'Everton 2'. As a consequence, it's postal address is Everton 2, Liverpool One. Don't know about you, but I thought this was quite amusing (although quite a few of my Liverpool supporting mates didn't), which got me thinking. What examples of football banter have you heard that made you smile? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sglosbcfc Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 Always makes me laugh when Gasheads make vacant promises, examples 1. Upon returning to Bristol from Bath - now we are back in Bristol, within 3 seasons we will be the top dogs and have the biggest gates. Hmmm still waiting for that one. 2. After announcing the UWE Stadium - we will be in it by 2015 and by then we will be a Championship club. Hmmm not if the Green Party get their way. And my personal favourite 3. Just about every 6 months - Lansdown has lost interest he prefers Rugby\Basketball/holidays etc. he is pulling out and you're going bust. 35 million quid says that is nonsense.

I don't know if it counts as banter but apparently Steve Lansdown once said something along the lines of "no one will talk about Bristol Rovers anymore". I don't know if he actually said it or the context of what was said if he did but those Dumbos in BS7 still cry and bitch about it years later.

dezgimed Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 Relegation match in the Championship, we were singing 'Going down going down going down', to which the away fans responded 'So are we so are we so are we'.

zyderiup Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 Enjoyed that 1-1 with Sunderland all those years ago (the late Soren Anderson equaliser) when we were really under the cosh but every once in a while got to sing...

BS15_RED Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 Back around 10 years ago we were playing away at Luton, Joe Kinnear was their manager at the time. Anyone who's been to Kenilworth Road will know that the dugouts are across the other side of the pitch from the tunnel. As Kinnear walked across the pitch just before the start of the second half, we all gave him a chant of "You fat Bastard", he turned round and faced us all and proceeded to rub his belly, for which we then duly gave him a standing ovation.

I'm sure this was the other way round, or at least it happened at a home game I was in the east end, the away fans started chanting "going down" and we responded with "so are we" Looking at the fixtures I'm pretty sure it was Sheff Wednesday at home on Easter Monday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were right, too. Leeds only lasted a couple more seasons in the PL themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pongo88 Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 Great story about Rodney Marsh. He was picked by Alf Ramsey to play for England against Wales. Alf didn't have much faith in his work rate so in the team talk before the match said " if I'm not happy with your performance I'll pull you off at half time " Rodney replied "Blimey Alf I only expected a cup of tea" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
