[Albion] What kind of fan are you?

[Gabbafella]

Me too, I'm getting worse though. I swear at inanimate objects, if something falls from a shelf, if something surprises me my first reaction is F Off. My dogs have learnt swearing, they know when to stop pulling when FFS gets rolled out, sit looking panicked if the swearniess gets worse.

I do promise to reduce it on a regular basis but I dont seem able to prevent it. Not good, but...

My cat has learnt to associate the colour green on TV means I'm about to start swearing, and she runs away at the first tut.
I definitely do the inanimate object thing too, especially at work.

Where is the " I just want a comfy seat, a good view, and sing the occasional ALBION chant when I can be arsed " option

This is what happens when you have kids and become middle-aged. I'm all that's wrong with modern football, my 20-year-old self would be disgusted at me.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

I have been known to let slip an odd swear word when a mistake allows a goal to be conceded or at the referee. I try not to, but I’m human.

 

[wehatepalace]

I do like a bit of old school, flicking v’s

 

[Sirnormangall]

Makes me cringe to think tha 40 years ago I’d have ticked more than one box

 

[W3D]

Fair enough. I've added an option just for you. I'm genuinely curious. I tend to swear at away matches but not at home. Some fans think the Zaha song is just banter some think it's horrific. Just interested in the different lines people have.

I genuinely dislike Winifred Haha, but bring myself to sing a song about him dying

[Hotchilidog]

I swear, and probably too much. The rest not at all.

 

[Hotchilidog]

Anyone singing the Zaha song needs to take a long hard look at themselves, it‘s neither big nor clever, it‘s disgraceful.

100% this.

 

[Baldseagull]

Just a potty mouth these days, and I try to curb that depending on age and gender of those in ear shot, have never luzzed lager randomly, nor sung Zaha song, however, it was not like that in the 80's. Harry Roberts was my friend, away fans were going to get their f***ing heads kicked in, and a wanker wave was friendlier than the throat cutting gesture.

 

[pb21]

I'm not afraid to let the ref know when he's being an idiotic wanker.

 

[Eeyore]

I've never really been given to irrational outbursts of emotion at football matches- except on one occasion that was really funny.

Albion played Pompey in a cup match and they scored only for their goal to be disallowed as their fans spilled onto the Goldstone pitch. I was sitting in West Stand library with the corpses and, without thought or preparedness, leapt out my seat giving the five knuckle shuffle yelling 'aaaahhhhhhhhhh'.

I sat down with a deeply apologetic look on my face and stayed quiet for the remainder.

 

[Guinness Boy]

Two of the above.

A good old cuss and the odd Gareth Hunt Nescafé wave is good for the soul.

Exactly this

 

[Psychobilly freakout]

I ticked none of the above, but probably ”did” all of the above.
age catches up with you, and with age comes ailments, wisdom and regret.
now, I trundle to my seat, hum to the songs and leave on eighty five minutes.

 

[Blue3]

Being older than a teenager I go to watch a game of football thats all

 

[nicko31]

None of those

Occasional swearing but largely reserved for away games, too many kids around me at home
