A big thank you..

[JonnyRed(WCFC)]

..for yesterday!

Loved it all...from the train journey up the anticipation was just bubbling in me for the whole experience, and I wasnt let down (and I knew I wouldnt be).

Im going to totally over use a word now that just sums it all up best..

Proper fans
Proper ground
Proper beer
Proper food
Proper atmosphere

Even the police horse manure I stepped in coming out the ground after was proper!!


Nowt fake or plastic..the spirit and style Wilder has got going is evident and I latched onto it immediately..Scunthorpe played the pantomime villain role perfectly which added to it.. one of the little side moments of the game that will stick with me was seeing Wilder charging out of his technical area after the loose ball that bounced out of play to keep the Blades momentum going with a quick throw, like the excited kid kicking a ball along the pavement after school and it goes into the road and he rushes to retrieve his most treasured possession before a big nasty car comes along and squashes it!!

The final whistle came too quick...the Blades deserved to win, if it had been a boxing match it probably wouldve been stopped in the first half as the Blades had the Iron penned back on the ropes until that HT whistle saved them.

So I say thank you to Sheffield for welcoming me in, it felt like it was saying it without saying it if you know what I mean..and to all the people I met and spoke to before , during and after the game some of whose names I never found out. A special thank you to WhiteHawk and his two Scunny friends for looking after me all day (and putting up with me!) and to the welcome I got after in the Beer Engine from Foxy Linz brownie raul and silverfox

Nows the bit where I sound like a big gals blouse..

I felt a tinge of sadness to leave but the train ride back I was able to sit back and go back and rewind the day with my happily beer fuzzed brain!

And yes..I'd like to do it again and come back for a bit more!


Just don't you dare leave that haven that is BDTBL, its the only place where the Blades spirit lies.

Proper post.

 

[SouthEssexBlade]

It's a shameful trawl for likes, but gave one anyway

It's a bug we've all been bitten with, Jonny, some of us quite a few years ago. It's only as time goes on, and football gets ever more a plastic commodity, that we remember how authentic our experience really is.

 

[1973Blade]

There wasn't a proper evacuation yesterday when the warning announcement came on. We all wanted to watch the second half!

That's as much of a "like whoring" post as has ever been posted on here

But have a 'like' from me, anyway, Jonny.

Pleased your getting "the bug" we all have.
You do contribute to this forum well, as well (less said about the incessant lists on the shout box, though )

JonnyRed(WCFC) didnt realise you were up for the game, was in beer engine myself, briefly after the game

 

[northsomersetblade]

It is....but there will be great rejoicing in heaven now that Jonny has seen the light

 

[JonnyRed(WCFC)]

I might make it my mission in life to work on the 'yobs with gobs' section

Its already working!

When the Scunny no30 went down right by us with cramp and then stayed down playing on it the chap sat next to me shouted that well used phase 'GET UP YOU BIG...'
I completed it with a well timed 'JESSIE!'
Cue a few wily old Blades fans chuckles around me and an 'ah yes, thats the word I was looking for ahem!'




That leaves just another 999 'c*nt' compliments thrown in his direction to work on!

 

[Blade58]

Loved reading that op

Glad you enjoyed the experience

Just for reference, ST's are competitively priced and you can even pay in installments

 

[JonnyRed(WCFC)]

The next time i'm up then
Was hoping to meet Prince Albert and TGM as well as I knew they were at the game.

Well, anybody off here really!

Aaaah, filling up here!

 

[JonnyRed(WCFC)]

Aaaah, filling up here!

Even though theres no piccies?

Anyway, youve only yourself to blame for me writing this as you sent me on a major guilt trip last night haha!

 

[Northyorksblade]

JonnyRed(WCFC) didnt realise you were up for the game, was in beer engine myself, briefly after the game

Pah, call yourself a Blade. WE all knew

 

[Northyorksblade]

Next time Jonny, next time. We are a forgiving lot too.

 

[axel smeets]

Probably the first time this season I haven't been in the Beer Engine after the match! Blame it on SYP and their inability to run a bath. We went to the Cremorne instead thanks to their overkill.

Proper pillock.

 

[JonnyRed(WCFC)]

I was just trying to drink the whole BDTBL thing in...my first walk round to the South Stand side and seeing the statues and then up that rising gangway bit to the turnstiles,squeezing through the narrow gap as you scan your ticket..being carried along by the throng into the concourse and seeing all the bits of history and images of past players decorating the walls.

Love all that.

I turned into a sentimental young old bugger way before I shouldve done!! But I dont care.

 

[prince albert]

if you had turned round you would have seen me
next time you come get your host to fetch you to the hermitige/r n rs/scholar/clubhouse the lads who do the shorehamview bladesvlog frequent this establishment you might get yourself immortalised on utube

 

[stringjunior]

I had my Man Citeh supporting mate with me yesterday. We've just been texting this morning and reminiscing on a top day out.

We had everything: an early start, train journey, some great beers, chat with the oppo fans, quality pie (he's a butcher and makes them himself, none of that Pukka shite), cracking match, a missed train home, and not being allowed in the Sheffield Tap for being too drunk

Anyway, we have a convert. He said he didn't realise how much he missed proper football in proper grounds with proper fans. He'll be coming again

 

[Robby Blade]

Pigs have Tango, we have Jonny. No brainer.

 

[Bladepicker]

Aaaah, filling up here!

Dont post while at a petrol station Norks. They'll tell you off for being on your phone.

Are you a blade Johnny or are we your 2nd club or something?

I did turn round and scan up the rows of people...another one of those things you do subconsciously when youre in a big crowded stand near the front and do..and I was clocking a few faces and wondering if it was you Alb. You probably saw me..I had the funny red hat on with the dangly drawstring out the top

Will definitely visit some different watering holes the next time and see you

Shurrup and dont be daft lol

I dunno, im just trying to enjoy football but youve had some effect on me

Jonny how much of that Worcester Sauce shit did you bring with you , because , 62 likes is probably a record for someone south of Brum .

Bollocks, I've got near on 8K and almost 90 for one post...admittedly I'm an exile in London, though!

Cremorne on London Road and Railway on Bramall Lane are good real ale pubs, packed on match day, good places

It only needed a verrrrrrry small bottle

Noone saw me smuggle it into BDTBL then

There was fair few neutrals in the exec boxes who really enjoyed it yesterday. Good advert for the club
