Attention all E Blockers (Row C)

[beardy gull]

Ah, now I see what your sense of humour is like. Can't match that.

 

[edna krabappel]

Where was that twat who shouted at Coppell last night to "make a change" just when we looked like playing some football and getting a grip on the game?

Numpty.

 

[berkshire seagull]

sounds like a fun night all round!
From recent dismal performances just aswell all this happened.

 

[Brovion]

Very interesting thread. Obviously if somebody behind you is being abusive about the team you are more than entitled to turn round and tell them to shut up, but if they are just talking (to your mind) complete and utter rubbish are you entitled to turn around and say "Look, can you talk about something more interesting like Mozart on the contribution of the Red Army to the defeat of Hitler?"

Maybe we should have different blocks for different types of conversations. Moaning whingers in A block, witty and erudite conversationalists in B, drunken old men in C and so on.

 

[Brovion]

I've also got to add that it's sort of 'life imitating art'. The same way that not all the threads on NSC are about the Albion neither are all conversations at football matches.

It does sound though as if Safeway overheard the equivalent of a Cheshire Dolphin thread though: "Hen, pen, len, ken" [Sorry Chesh! No offence meant!] - and unlike NSC he wasn't able to ignore it!

 

[Shizuoka Dolphin]

None taken!

 

[Blackadder]

drunken old men in C and so on.

Ah you know us then Brovian

 

[Charlies Shinpad]

I had a kid of about 6 behind me and he was kicking the back of my seat from the first minute to the last,and he was really pissing me off!!

 

[Sam]

I was in front of some guy who screamed every time cheaterfield got a cross in. Funny but ear splitting!

yeah i was too, he was sitting right behind me! it was hilarious!

 

[BrightonBird]

yeah i was too, he was sitting right behind me! it was hilarious!

We must have been sitting next to each other then (or thereabouts).

 

[Citrus]

My mate in the ticket office sorted Cheshire and I with particularly good seats for last night's game, 127 and 128 in Row B E Block. Perfect, right on the halfway line and pretty much as close to the action as the South Stand. Best seats in the house. Or so we thought.

Sat behind us were four or five blokes, about 19/20, who utterly ruined the experience by talking complete and utter f***ing, non-stop BULLSHIT. It was painful, no, excruciating. If either one of us had been as drunk as had been intended there would have been abuse directed towards them.

Topics of conversation included:

Players from bygone years (Mahoey-Johnson, Gall, you know, really shit ones)
The 'hilarious' consequnces of merging Hinshelwood and Pethick's surnames - Hinshpeth. Apparently he would play for Barnsley. Side-splitting.
The name of one of them's car: Tony Browne. WHAT?!

I'm sure there were more that Cheshire will remember, but they are three of the more 'memorable' ones.

I know for a fact they use NSC because one of them was bemoaning the Big Board 2 (he had a point), and the others were going on about it being full of 15 and 16 year-olds. Quite frankly I would rather listen to a group of schoolkids than ever ever have to endure that bunch of clowns again.

Know who they are? Shop them here.

Quality seats they are, me and a mate sit in 121 and 122. Great. Best in the ground!

Oh yeah, sorry about that.

 

[Gwylan]

I'm baffled by this "really shit" player by the name of Gall.

That's either Norman (a former player of the year..twice) whom Clough described as being one of the best headers of the ball he'd ever seen, and who is third in the list of Albion appearances. Or it's Mark, the guy with the Zamora-like record of 14 goals in 33 games, and who combined pace, strength and good finishing.

Neither of them could remotely be described as shit and both would be strong candidates for an all-time Albion XI, or an all-time great squad at least.

Looks like these guys really were talking bollocks.

 

[beardy gull]

Gall was never mentioned during this conversation. You're quite right Gwylan, Mark Gall was a great player. You're also right, we were talking bollocks. No change there then.

 

[Shizuoka Dolphin]

I feel like I know half your work colleagues after Tuesday - and how's that new Quality team coming along?

 

[Braders]

that was a bloke screaming , i thought it was a dodge firework ! does the whole of nsc sit in h/j block ? if so how do i not spot more of you ?

probably cos you dont know what we look like.

Although I look similar to my avatar.

 

[Albion Dan]

Sound slike Albion Dan was one of them

No, as Turkey has said Im sat 2 rows back from him in D block. I have to say though that we are prone to making up probably unfunny jokes like this in the pursuit of entertainment when the boys are playinf particuarly badly.

 

[bhanuts]

Safeway, most of your pathetic posts do my head in!

 

[Safeway]

Do you think I'm even going to give the time of day to someone with less than 20 posts? Do me a favour!!
