The "I Jumped the gun" thread

[Longtimesupporter]

If our supporters can travel all over the country, then the ones who stay at home listening to the radio surely can put up with 90 minutes. It's not over 'til it's over.
Saturday showed that.

I'm actually gonna get in touch with Jim, see if he will install a Shower on the south stand for me! Will happily do the same every game if we score 3 goals each time!

I would join ya but thats a bit gay .. oh well if we win every week team effort all united and all that

United together, fighting for each other.

Sticking it in one end and keeping it out of the other?

If someone else was doing the analysis rather than Keith, I would have stuck with it.

Being a corporate cup tart I was out for a meal with Work up in Scotland and had completely forgotten that we were playing and only realised when my mate texted me saying "What a comeback". So i didn't jump the gun, but am willing to admit that even as an eternal optimist I most probably would at 3 nil down! (I don't know why, but I suddenly got all nervous about using the words "would have"!)

They scored their 3rd so I went for a shit and a shower. Came back as we equalised.

Fucking hell, your cubicle must be gross!

My brother, who died just over a year ago, had to retrieve all his United gear from the dustbin on four separate occasions due to monumental flouncing episodes - cries of "Bollocks to it, that's my lot, the bastards always do it, fuck the lot of them" were heard across the Staffordshire countryside.

Christ, I wish I could have rung him last night at 3-3

 

[Kenilworth]

I listened to the whole lot - my last shout was to the effect that even OG wouldn't hit the target tonight.
Then I logged off the forum (my Blades Player comms is allus a minute or two behind the radios in Sheffield and the spoiler feckers on the shout box, so I like to hear it as though it's in real time) as the Done and Sharp show started and, Bingo - great come back

I rely on broadband here in spain for internet tv and radio links and lost it completely , the broadband , as Wigans third had gone in , so went to bed in a vile mood and totally unaware of our late surge to parity
I didnt so much jump the gun as lost the firing pin

[carthesis]

Wasn't that a Beastie Boys album?

I'm having Keith Edwards as my scapegoat, when I watch us lose live I can usually see either some positives, or the funny side of some of it. On the radio I just find myself filled with hate and dispair

I find the same. I hate listening to us most of the time. Keith makes me believe we are the worst side ever to step onto a football pitch. Every game he describes seems as if we were as bad as the Shrewsbury home game. Surely that can’t be true?


I turned off at 3-1 cos the Mrs wanted to watch “Tattoo Fixers”. Normally I’d take the radio into the kitchen and stand in there and continue listening but I felt we weren’t getting back into the game. So I suppose I am guilty.

I went into the kitchen to listen and opened my first drink after 0-2, as the goal caused me to puncture the work I was doing with the tip of my biro. This scared the dog and annoyed the missus (I was listening on headphones at the time, so to be fair to the dog there was probably a lack of context)

Annoying tosser isn't he? Hard to believe such an irritating old man was a boyhood hero of mine.
