North Stand Chat were loose

[Lord Bracknell]

It means "We Will Lose". Typed slightly quaintly once by an NSC poster as "were loose" and it's stuck.

It joins 'fixtures', binfest' and the now sadly underused term of abuse 'slice' as NSC's great contributions to the ever-evolving English language.

Some of us are still waiting for an answer to the question "Where can I download a GOSBTS ringtone for a Nokia 6310?"

It's geer shenius. Can we copyright 'Were Loose' so that 'magpie' fans with no imagination of their own (Palace etc.) can't claim it as their own?

If fixtures, t'sorry....

A few years ago one poster was complaining about the poor standard of grammar/spelling, so some posters started deliberately misspelling words etc.
"were loose" was the favoured misspelling of the Withdean Wanderer's oft used phrase "We'll lose".

It's a NSC sheep thing, one person does something and all the SHEEP follow in the MISGUIDED knowledge that they are being ORIGINAL and HUMOROUS

Talking about something ORGINAL Enrest, is there any reason why you haven't come from the Cliftonville with a SCOOP recently?

It has to be said that the NSC banner is now looking great - best one we've had imho. More power to Bozza's elbow.
