Very unpleasant bitter homophobe.

Bit of a joke really, saying our huge crowd that caused transport congestion are all plastics with no history...and then admits he left after 80 minutes when they were losing.

Sheffield Wednesday

 

[The Large One]

I realise this is probably resorting to every bit as much of a stereotype, but Northerners do seem to be considerably more prone to this sort of stuff.

Burnley, Blackburn and Wednesday...it's all a bit of an obsession for them, isn't it?

To paraphrase Queen Gertrude, "They doth protest too much, methinks..."

 

[Papa Lazarou]

Brighton and Hove Albion are another one of these Reading sorts that believe football has only existed for the last five years. Upstart wannabes who are never beens and never be's. I've garnered this ill feeling towards them from my visit to the AMEX last season. The most fabricated football 'supporters' I've ever seen in my life. The transport links may have improved since, but they were atrocious at the time. The ground isn't even in Brighton or Hove and Brighton station was rammed with their fans giving it the big un, trying to impersonate real football fans and bending over backwards (yes, backwards) to act like they've been there all their lives. Chanting and boozing with their shitty shirts and scarves because that's what they think football fans do. Imitation fans is all they are. Let's see how many of them travel up on Tuesday night. Not many I'd guess. I walked out of their stadium 3-0 down on about 80 minutes and there were streams of people leaving. 3-0 up, playing some sublime football and the stadium was half empty FFS. Brighton? Nah, not for me.

An awful lot of effort to go to for an audience of three Yorkies and a whippet.

It doesn't take much to remind me why I have that lot in the basement of my most liked clubs. I may even have to review their position with Dirty Leeds

Yes because the views of a few supporters is reason enough eh?

Maybe if you weren't so myopic about Northerners on here......

 

[LamieRobertson]

This Sheffield Wednesday fan doesn't seem to like us much! http://www.owlsonline.com/?page=news&news_id=1155

Difficult to take any blog written like that seriously

"Chanting and boozing with their shitty shirts and scarves because that's what they think football fans do. "

Well yes, and what is wrong with that...?

Wednesday

Wednesday

Yes, our shitty blue and white striped shirts. Oh.

You really think that we don't know any northerners? There are modern inventions like trains, cars and motorways, to get around the country. Some of us have even lived & worked in the north.

Do you not think the blogger wasn't being myopic by calling Brighton ''Bummers''?

Northerners? What an absurd, and totally incorrect assumption.

Hardly a few ... fairly consistent from my read of that forum of yours. A significant proportion of your support are living in the past, likely because there's SFA in the present to get excited about

I assume that means they won't be singing tonight then?

Extremely myopic, perhaps had he not used the Bummers word you'd have been less uppity.

 

[Eggmundo]

I thought that was very accurate and in no way bias.

A breath of fresh air from the normal ramblings of a wannabe hero.

Let's not forget the massive rainbow flag in the middle of that twaddle.

 

[JOLovegrove]

It would be interesting to see how many people on here are actually gay and if that is a higher percentage than other football forums?

 

[Stato]

"To be honest, I didn't know much about the history of this football club" but ironically, that doesn't stop him condemning us as
"Another one of these Reading sorts that believe football has only existed for the last five years," ignoring the best part of the 113 years that the team has represented its community. Just because you've only been aware of us for the last five years doesn't mean we weren't here. If you want football history lessons, there are loads of us who could bore you (more) stupid.

For instance: In the early part of our history, whilst Northern factories were closed on Saturday afternoons so you could all go off and play football, most of our ancestors were still working the farms. Therefore its taken us a while to catch up.

It was still condescending crap with a large hint of jealousy. Wednesday haven't won anything worthwhile for over 60 years so perhaps you should be looking closer to he before criticising our club.

Talk about living in the past.

 

[Norman Baker suck my lozenge]

It's Yorkshire folk innit. Only happy when they're moaning about summat.

Or hitting ladies of the night over the head with a ball hammer.

I have quite a lot of Northern acquaintances and have to say that they have a far bigger dislike of Southerners than we do of Northerners down here.
