Dont like swearing? GET OUT THE NORTH!!!

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Part of the problem here is that the club cannot officially section of the North Stand as a rowdy and sweary stand.

Why not? There was a club officially sanctioned 'Singing Section' in the South Stand at Withdean once (started off in J block and was subsequently bounced to H block). Maybe there could be a club officially sanctioned Non Rowdy And Sweary Section, maybe with some kind of acoustic hood to protect the innocent from the realities of football crowds.

Part of the problem here is that the club cannot officially section of the North Stand as a rowdy and sweary stand. If this were to happen then people could make their choice based on the knowledge of what will go on in each stand. Maybe if the club advertised the North Stand as a foul and abusive language Traditional football experience. All the sweary Marys could go in their and the guardian reading yoghurt weavers could stick to another stand and eat their prawn sandwiches whilst rejoicing in the fact that they have more than 3 brain cells.

A large sign on the entrances to the North Stand that read "If you are offended by foul and abusive language please **** off somewhere else you ****".

This system would of course have the added bonus as the heir apparent football fans who began watching during the renaissance of the early 90's would easily be able to keep away from the working class oik throwbacks from yesteryear.

Problem solved

Strange - I don't particularly remember "foul and abusive" language being part of a "traditional football experience" - it wasn't until the 70s that I noticed it creeping into the game.

What is 'yoghurt weaving'? I'm not sure if I fall in to that category or not.

I blame the refs, an inconsistent or bad one brings on a attack of Tourette's, every swear word except the c word is likely to come out.

What? Ive simply said if u dont like swearing get out the north as u are gonma hear it

Don't mind if you do, even in your songs, because you can;t be heard anywhere else in the ground, I think the North Stand is not a patch on the old North Stand at the Goldstone, its full of pretenders. Every game this year you have been outsung by the opposition and the turnout for Villareal was pathetic. Come lets hear what you have to say

 

[Scoffers]

'Referee, oh referee, that decision wasn't good. Please do better next time' just isn't the same as 'Who's the wanker in the black'

Sitting as I do at the top of WSU, nothing I say will reach the ears of the aforementioned official, but that won't stop me reacting to the continuously poor decisions that get metered out week after week

Working class people need to let off steam or they will revolt. As a member of the ruling class I am happy for them to swear at football if it keeps them off my lawns.

In a way, you've made a seriously good, important point there.
