Pompey fans - scum of the league

[Dover]

Easy 10 is spot, and probaby echoes most posters on here. There are a full 90 mins to shout and scream during the match.

A minutes silence is just that. Whether you respected the person it is for or not, your neighbour just might.

 

[Gary Nelson]

There was a lot of sniggering at Peterborough during the minutes silence for the Queen Mum.

I am as fond of the Scum and Pompey as most people on this board, but I recognise a true football man, dedicated to a club through thick and thin, and serving it and the community for all his life, with all the respect he deserves. Ted Bates was such a man.

You, on the other hand, are just a total wanker.

 

[Herne Hill Seagull]

f***ing hell...I really shouldn't dignify such a churlish posting with a response, but...if age is irrelevant, why do only the young deserve a minutes' silence? Doesn't compare? So you get to decide who's worthy of respect and who isn't, do you? I'm glad you're so knowledgable, discerning and important as to be able to make the choice.

It's about respect for a man who brought a lot to the game, over a long period. Should you ever, ever do anything worthy of a large number of people remembering you, however briefly, do you want some fuckwit shouting abuse?

Talking crap? Christ, I despair....

You really are brain dead aren't you? Its OK to boo someone who died of old age then? So at what age of death is it OK then to chant or boo 50,60 or 70?

Let us ask you again. If it was your Father / Grandfather would you be happy if people were chanting or booing or would you simply say 'Its OK he had a good innings - I dont mind people showing a lack of respect for his death'

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Someone dying is someone dying. By your logic, how do you decide what constitutes a "tragic" death and what constitutes a non-tragic one?

The death of almost anyone will cause pain and upset to somebody, mainly their family, and to suggest Southampton shouldn't have held the minute's silence because some Portsmouth fans couldn't be bothered to respect it is utter crap.

I have sat through plenty of minutes of silence for obscure members of other clubs and never, ever heard anyone ruin them or pay any disrespect so I find your suggestion that people would boo a Palace player/manager/whoever absolutely ludicrous. The only thing I can ever recall was once at the Goldstone when one guy shouted something out during someone's silence, and when it was over, most of the crowd booed him furiously and had a right go at the guy.

You are wrong, and you will no doubt be proved as such one day. I'd like to see you try and start booing a Palace minute's silence with 4000 silent and respectful Albion fans around you, you wouldn't have the balls despite what you're trying to say.

Are you on a wind-up here, or are you genuinely this dense ?
Have you got some kind of league table going as to how tragic death is according to how old the person is ? Ted Bates left behind family and friends, as did David Rocastle. The issue about a minutes silence isn't dictated to according to how old the person was when they died - its a mark of respect in remembrence to someone who was an important figure in the clubs tapestry. I guess you feel that because the fella died of old age, he's not worthy of having a minutes silence ? OK, how about a car crash ? Or cancer maybe ? Brain tumour ? Come on, throw us a bone here. What is and isn't worthy of a minutes silence in your considered opinion ?

 

[Brixtaan]

These are the same kind of people who boo other countries National Anthems during Internationals. I simply can't understand this kind of behaviour.

Whats wrong with that? perhaps the polite land of Rugby is more your cup of tea?

God they are all out of the Asylum today.

If you mean is the polite land of Rugby more my cup of tea because the fans can sit next to each other, show the opposing teams National Anthems respect and that I've never run across a Gloucester or Leicester Tigers Firm in Burberry sporting for a fight then yes you are absolutely right.

Its twats like you and BHafc4ever that give law abiding, friendly football supporters like me a bad name. I hate going to a game and being treated like a criminal by the Police because I have a football shirt on but I understand the reason. This is because the brain dead follow football, cause fights and bad feeling amongst the local population and then say 'But I'm as much a fan as you' Of course you are giving the Country or Town a bad name.

What a load of shite from some on here Gary Nelson was right at the home game after the Queen mum died there was shouting and someone got thrown out after a punch was thrown and at the followinng peterboro game there was shouting and words were exchanged between people trying to observe and people not observing.

So to think that all BHAFC fans would respect a minute silence for some pikey Palace scum is dreamworld I reckon many would boo or carry on singing, whether it is right or wrong is down to the individual if they want to observe it.

Personally i have always observed minutes silence but have booed at a few national anthems particularly Argentina's, Eire, and Turkey.

 

[Gary Nelson]

I remember someone shouting put:
'Where's your mother gone'??

Not funny, but some people around me, dare I even say it people that post on here, did laugh

Raising another issue, I cant see why the English fans were classed as being racists by shouting 'Stand up if you hate Turkey'

 

[Dave the OAP]

SM....how do you relate that to the REMF issue then?

Place fans respected a minutes silence in both games we have played for Robert Eaton. In fact Palace fans have been involved 100% in the raising of the profile of this.

Why do you find it necessary to boo a national anthem. I suppose its this macho British shit that people hang their hats on.

By the way, am I the only one who thinks the English " fans" will bring our country to shame again in Portugal in the summer. You can just picture the scenes now.

 

[Hannibal smith]

Spot on Dave. I was contemplating going before I actually sat down and thought about it. You just know that the English will be anti-social at best, violent at worst. I for one can't be bothered with it which is a shame as the morons are winning.

The only saving grace is that we do not look like having any games against Holland, Germany & the Turkes didn't qualify where the most potential for trouble is.

So let's say you win the lottery, take over the Albion and preside over a period in which we win a proper trophy and get into the Premiership. Then you drop dead. The next game is against Palace, and your wife is in the crowd - she hears the minute's silence jeered at by some in the 5,000 visiting support and another few hundred screaming "f*** off" back in retaliation. The ref blows his whistle 35 seconds early because the respect for your death has been ruined by some mindless idiots... Glad to hear you don't give a tuppeny toss about your wife's feelings on the matter.

And generally speaking there is NO excuse for abusing a national anthem. I'd love to hear your reasons for booing those 3 anthems, but I doubt you'll bother. Absolutely shameful.

 

[Gary Nelson]

I admit I am not the most honourable of men at football as it sometimes bring's out the worst in me. However, I cant be f***ed to follow England by gonig to the games due the violence involved with it all. Im sure there will be trouble in Portugal but then I do feel that the English fans are not the only ones. The Dutch, Germans and Turks (who wont be there ) have their fair share of 'fans' like that.
My hatred to towards Palace has halfed since the REMF. I know not all fans are like that, not all our fans would do what some of us have done but I dont feel the same hatred as before. Call me ignorant or a bell but Im not sure what the difference between chanting 'Stand up if you hate Turkey' and booing their anthem is.

 

[SM BHAFC]

Simster read the post properly please

I am saying that i do not think all BHA fans would respect a minutes silence if it involved Palace, not that i would not respect it as i would and always have respected any minutes silence i have been at.

Right or wrong it is down to the individual if they want to respect it I WOULD.

Booing national anthems is disrepectful and that is what i am being when i do it i do not particulary like Argentina, Turkey or the Eire i am not looking for an excuse for doing it.

Why do I not like those countries?

A variety of reasons some personal some probably irrational but there you go i am far from perfect and i do not have time to get into those reasons here.

Of course! How right you are...just because I find booing other countries National Anthems, ignorant and childish, I must be a rugby fan and not support football - Idiot!

 

[byf]

I personally would boo a turkish anthem+irish+scottish+most of all WELSH!

personal reasons behind some of the above,and the fact they would boo us comes into effect!

BOO THEM ALL!
