Middle Aged Men of the West Stand

[sten]

We really make it far too nice for away fans and teams. Stick them in the corner with a shit view and charge them a fortune, like everyone else does. Don't let them once again roar their team to a winning goal by having them pack the end behind the goal they are attacking.

Yep bang on ,too nice it's pathetic beginning to really get obvious now a full away end spread right across behind South goal nearly always equals away team coming away with at least a draw more often a win

Yes you have a point, Cardiff we were in the corner, Shef Wednesday high up, Reading in the corner (but we did have a good view of the fan in his full kit and he was more entertaining than the game). Perhaps we should put the away fans in the south west corner and then they would actually see those whom this post was all about.

I would take the roof off that keeps them nice and dry, sit them more to the east so when it's sunny they can't see, sell them last months pies,offer only Black Label lager, served warm, and lock them in for 45 minutes after the game.

Withdean anyone? when we started to perform the away fans had zero effect on the game., stick them in East lower near the North, sell the south stand as the cheapest ticket option to home fans, would never happen though.

Why do many of you stand up, shake your fists and stick your fingers up at the away fans whey they announce the crowd attendance? What's all that about?

why, does it bother you ?

 

[dejavuatbtn]

Applauding the fact that they had come, and yesterdays 3200 Norwich fans giving £100,000 in ticket money to BHAFC.

Yes, 3200 fans away from home on a bank holiday when the trains were up the creak. I thought it was a pretty impressive turnout from them. If we aspire to be another Norwich it would be nice to think we can get that sort of away support.

 

[Lincoln Imp]

99% of the applause is for the magnificent home attendance.

A handful of unusually nice people also clap the away fans for travelling.

It is not a problem.

It is if you're a Neanderthal. It's REALLY upsetting.

This....I don't mind the civility of applauding fellow soccerball attendees....but they should be put in the shittiest seats that can be found for them...it's possible to be too nice, chaps

 

[LamieRobertson]

Given we know it's not the actual attendance stop announcing it all together

Okay, but I reckon they might be a bit mean to me.

So you applauded them ? Pass the sick bucket someone.

Since our return to the Championship, the only away ground I can think of where they put us in a corner,and not behind a goal, has been Leeds (and we've won 3 out of our 4 visits there).

Which 3000 shitty seats at the AMEX, would you suggest?

 

[melias shoes]

Clapping the away fans - what's all THAT about?

Correct.

 

[melias shoes]

Yep, that is shyte

Also correct.

 

[melias shoes]

Supporters in general are not as nice nowadays as they were in the 70s and 80s , i fondly remember being showered with thrupenny bits and the odd 2 bob when travelling to certain grounds by home fans eager to show their appreciation that we came to visit their ground .

Went a long way towards paying for the day. 50p not to be scoffed at back then.

What? They're going for promotion. It's was a bank holiday means they should travel regardless of train problems. Do you get to many of our away games? If did you would know we take quite a few away sometimes. Particularly if we were fighting for promotion.
