Fordy62 Posted April 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 5 minutes ago, NeilS said: This is very much what I see on the streets, or rather see on the TV, people complaining about this and that and doing nothing, it's the same as the cops Fordy, my son was being assaulted protecting a couple from being being beaten up by thugs who wanted a fag... the Police were buying their fish suppers across the road and were completely focused on that. He suffered a fractured skull, and other injuries, you would think that at least that section of society (the Police) would stand up and be counted wouldn't you? Hi Neil. Mom sorry to hear about your son. From your account I'd agree that it doesn't sound acceptable at all. I hope he's fully recovered. Have you complained to the force involved? Because I can assure you that nothing will be done if you don't. With regard to your point about standing up to be counted, truth be told, it didn't really bother me too much. It was slightly annoying, yes... But in the grand scheme of things, I wasn't going to upset a man and his young lad and make them feel uncomfortable for the rest of the match for something that was on a par with a fly buzzing around me. Unfortunately i have to deal with people who murder, assault and do the unthinkable. They often want to fight me, although I seldom have the desire to fight them. So really last night was water off a duck's back and that'd be the reason I didn't address it. My real concern was finding out: (a) what word I had heard as pykehand, and (b) what it meant. So yeh, there's a time and a place to stand up and be counted, but for me, last night wasn't it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's just some things other people don't need to know, we'll have to have 'that chat' on the way down on Saturday (again!), first rule of going to football with Dad club is you don't talk about going to football with Dad. She'll learn! I gave Joe a little chat on the way home. Might as well not have bothered....."mummy, you should've heard daddy tonight. He was swearing, the F word too". He found it hilarious!

Wrongagain Posted April 6, 2016 Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 Fully agree that the all seater stadium is part of the problem, well known idiot sat at end of row1 block 23, greeted by Scrumpy every match, but as soon as things hot up he is on his feet shouting every sexual expletive you can imagine - surrounded by women and children, even his own! last night, at long last, he was confronted by stewards and threatened with ejection - never seen him so angry - singled out AND falsly accused - oh dear!

1960maaan Posted April 6, 2016 Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 What would annoy me is, I dunno , say ..... a guy comes in a few minutes late every game, goes out for a pee five minutes before half time, sometimes even comes back before going back out again AT half time, does the same thing in the second half , and just before the end. And imagine if someone said we were glad to be moving to the West stand to be told HE was moving there too !! bound to be near us again, um if there was such a person Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate there isn't much legroom but you aren't that tall to be constantly kneeing me in the back and when you aren't doing that you are jiggling your legs up and down against my seat in a constant state of nervousness, excitement, coldness or a mixture of all three. Despite me pushing back, turning round etc you haven't taken the hint. Sometimes you do stop for a few minutes before you start again. I am very happy that you are pissing off elsewhere. I'm sure the pleasure has been all yours, I'm happy that your knees and my back never touch again. M The East End in the seventies served up interesting stuff from the people behind!

OK, so now we know what a piecan is? But why is a piecan? What's the etymology*? *Yes, I've always wanted to use the word etymology on OTIB.
