One Team Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 It was only my second away game of the season but WHAT a day out!This was some of the best away support I've witnessed in years - passionate, loud singing from the off, virtually the whole end in unison, it was some sight and sound!I don't think I've seen the whole away contingent stand up for "stand up if you hate the Gas!" before!Chant of the day for me though (there were quite a few) was "Savage for England!" when Big Bad Bas came on the pitch! Hilarious! As was the "are you watching Erikkson?!" chant that followed it.Well done everyone who went - I was well impressed!One Team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmersonsKev Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 Chant of the day was towards the steward who fell over the advertising hoardings. A chant of "are you Bas in disguise" Thought it was a bit harsh myself. Left me laughing though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MurrayLives Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 My favourite chant from yesterday would have to be 'You should be back in the kitchen, back in the kitchen!' towards the female official. Not sexist myself, but I had to chuckle at that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chappers Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 I just thought that the idea that women were little more than 'homemakers' died out in the 70's. I thought it sounded outdated, unfunny, pathetic and small-minded. The chants at sheep-head were good though, with a barnet like that, they were fully deserved.

WTFiGO!?! Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 I'm gutted I didn't make the effort in hindsight obviously, serves me right I s'pose! My current circumstances make it hard to travel and I was also worried about getting myself in trouble although I hear that that was an unfounded fear.Credit to all that did the Club proud yesterday.

Not sure which ones though whatever entered me head really. Was a great laugh. Matched the atmosphere up at rotherham easily. Was great how everything was in unison.

Loreal, Loreal, - none of us thought of chanting "get dees f**king 'air cut" as my dear departed grandfather used to exclaim at the 'hippy types' during the 1970's.

RobinRed Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 I keep reading about these amazing days out at citys away games but its never like that at hme games. When i was younger i would get so excited on a friday knowing that i would be going 2 watch city, but i think the thing i got most excited about was the atmosphere. now apart from the few songs here and there the Atmosphere is nothing compared 2 what it was like once apon a time. I remember the drums beating, the crowd singing barmy army for the whole 90mins, and the whole stadium would be singing not just the one corner in one stand. It used 2 be such a buzz singing and shouting, either we arent singing enough or ive just grown out of getting excited at city gsme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
