Anyone Else Sat Near a Knobhead or Knobheads?

[flashinblade1889]

Bloke near me yesterday shouting 'Go on Tickle' every time Ched touched the ball also gobbing off at the ref all game blokes a full weight cunt.

 

[HighfieldBlade]

The young lass on the kop sat directly behind me was yelling some very flowery language in frustration" get up you fuckin pussy" "cheating cunts" "you fuckin faggot" etc. Guess I was shocked that it came from a woman more than anything else. I was scared to turn round in case she head-butted me or something .

What we need is a good dose of relegation so that Bert can watch the match in peace.

I was a little concerned to discover who my new neighbours would be at the start of the season. But as it turns out he's a real salt of the earth bloke who's been watching united for 50 years, has worthy opinions, isn't mentally unstable, and yet still has moments of childish abandon when the game inspires it.

Good man.

Never really understood the big deal about the use of profanity around kids. When I first started going as an 11 year old, the use of industrial language was a given at a football match.

At my school, the kids in my class were already well versed in the expletive arts. Some of them were already smoking and finger-fucking at that age, so the odd utterance of a 'fuck' or 'cunt' is hardly going to damage your little angels delicate disposition.

Lol .. only problem was the kid 2 seats down from me yesterday was about 6 , if he's finger fucking & smoking at his age then kids really are growing up quicker ??

When an incident is particularly unfair on United and I sense from the reaction of the crowd that I'm not alone in my feelings, I must admit that I could be mis-interpreted as an idiot by the fellow supporters around me.

But it is in fact not me shouting obscenities and uncontrollably flaring my arms up. I'm not in any control of my voice box or arm movements in that moment. It happens then I sit down afterwards and replay it in my head to find out what I've said.

True, the fun stuff doesn't generally kick in until the first pube appears.

But that said, life corrupts everybody eventually. Might as well get it out of the way early.

Not a killjoy but when I saw this thread I thought the idiots who threw the bottles were going to be exposed.
Carry on with the humour I like a good laugh but these idiots need catching and banning from our ground rant over ! !

im pretty lucky where i am & have been for 15yrs. cant say i have alot problems bar the odd child that can be sat behind me, but im not bothered by that because i know how tricky it can be. it took my now 9yr neice about 7/8 months to be comfortable & learn the match etitque. we were all them once

over the last 3 or 4 years. ive noticed ive turned into being really quiet during the majority of game. i think through tension, strange what tension does to people. although admittedly i developed a weird twitch where i cant help but head or kick every ball in the penalty box

 

[TonyAgana]

Did anybody see the two old boys squaring up in the John Street concourse at full time? Looked like it was about to get messy! Must've been wrong side of 70 at least!

 

[bertieblade]

New guy behind me is a world authority on nothing of particular interest, but thinks anyone around him finds him interesting. Classics on Saturday included.
That lad Books needs a good dinner, never strong enough to make a footballer.
Their number ten ain't any good, surprised he is in the team ahead of Jerome as always rated him.

Truth. It's so stupid, especially after Donaldson got hit in the face with one and Billy had one lobbed at him against Derby.

The person that threw it will be on the hawkeye camera for the Kop end I think, if they want it in slow motion.

I was sat right behind the camera and I saw the bottle come flying in from the Kop, so they should have a look.

I do wonder how enforceable the bans are though. Maybe incentivising reporting bellends would work better, 10000 loyalty point bounty for twat with a tropical lucozade bottle.

Seriously, they can do damage, when I was 13 someone lobbed a full panda pop at me and it fractured my jaw bone, only a minor one, and it healed without an op or anything but it hurt, and they're only 300ml haha

 

[SB_90]

There's a fucking family stand for a fucking reason.

trust me that doesnt stop some people. although you do get some interesting variations of cleaned up swear words as well

 

[TommyAndy]

I must admit I got a bit out of hand on Saturday... My piss was thoroughly boiled and I'm surprised I haven't been reported on here for my language

 

[georgebernardshaw]

During the great John Harris years, our kid and I used to stand at the Bramall Lane end of the Terrace.

A bloke was there every week, who was shit scared of any opposing right winger.

Every Saturday was the same cry....

"GRASS HIM TED"

 

[sitwell]

Bloke behind us thinks hes Jeff Stelling (looks more like Sam Leitch) ,spends all the game on his phone ,'Gillingham have scored' ,'Guisley have missed a pen' 'Lieutenant Zip died this morning' . Bore off.

 

[Isaw Joeshaw]

Had some interesting ones over the years.

Back in the 70's a guy used to stand near me on the John Street terrace who had a pathological hatred of linesmen, and I mean every linesman who ever came to the Lane.

Within 5 minutes of every game kicking off he would invariably yell out, " Stick yer flag up yer arse linesman " and then repeat this ad nauseam throughout the remainder of the game. Funny, eh ?

Later on , when I moved to the South Stand, another daft twat with no appreciation of what was happening in front of him decided
that EVERY goal we conceded was Paddy Kenny's fault and, when the ball went in, would leap up, punch the air and scream " Fucking goalkeeper again !"

Yeah, right, you fucking idiot.

 

[Dkc]

I normally stand at the top of Gangway E on the kop, and it's a motley crew up there. It's been my spot for 38 years, though I'll sit anywhere in the ground. Never had any problems with anyone on E Block. Ok the language is foul,but the atmosphere and singing is the best. You may spot someone taking a sly swig from a hip flask or smell a strange whiff in the air. People may kick the corregated iron, and a flare may perhaps be let off in nearby F Block...

Actually, maybe it's time to move.

I wouldn't disagree with most of that. Despite me raising this as a concern in the thread I can honestly say that my 8 year old lad just laughs it all off. But I do think grown men should just be a bit more restrained where young kids are concerned. And this is from someone who swears for England during work and play but can now flick the switch when kids are around.

Maybe I am just getting old? I don't know if you have kids but I think I am with most parents in saying that I want to keep them as 'kids' for as long as possible. I am already crippled thinking of the inevitable time when mine tell me they don't believe in Father Christmas anymore, that's what fatherhood does to you!

Well I suppose it's all about standards. My grandparents and dad(all miners) would kick my ass for swearing. Just a race to the bottom in their opinion - if you can't express yourself - swear profusely. Many comedians take this easy route to appeal to the masses. I'm not against the odd strong word but some take it to a whole different level where you have to consider what you're left with after taking the expletives out. Obviously after a few pints this goes out of the window.

 

[IdLiketoRogerMoore]

Funnily enough I have found the family stand to be just as bad as anywhere else whenever we go in there.

I am no prude and don't expect anyone not to swear, I know I find it almost impossible sometimes and it's only an 8 year old sitting next to me that prevents me from letting rip sometimes.

And kids hear it all the time these days out and about to varying degrees but yesterday's exponents really did push the boat out. Hearing grown men screaming 'You fucking cunt!!' 'Fuck off and die you fucking cunt!!' and such like with kids no older than 5 or 6 sat immediately in front of them was a bit much.

I've only heard that once in the Family Stand and the culprit was removed soon after.

I'm amazed at the level of restraint shown in the Family Stand. It's a credit to our club and supporters that in the two seasons I've sat in there, I've only witnessed one moron who's sworn like that out loud.

The missus is sat opposite me now if that counts

I'd love to see what you write in her Birthday / Christmas cards

 

[The Crab]

I'm fully aware of the fact that a referee blowing a whistle to start a game of association football can instantly transform me into the sort of person one would not wish to be in the company of.

If you sit near me. Soz.

We all have our triggers Luke.

Mine is finding an Egg on my McMuffin

 

[The Crab]

Our lass is being a knobhead, she's sat in the chair, I'm sat on the sofa, so technically were not next to eachother, but at present, it's definitely close enough!

I trust you have the remote?

 

[The Crab]

Went for a meal recently, and we were offered the table with the best view in the house, but asked whether we minded kids, as there were 2 families on the next table. Said we like kids, no problem. The kids (4 of them, aged between about 4 and 9), were lovely; the adults, however, were absolutely awful.

Sometimes I wonder if I'm getting more intolerant as I get older, or are people really getting more cuntish? Two of these examples are going out for a pub meal, and (despite the fact I love flying) people on planes.

 

[The Crab]

Price them out. It's the only way!

They're trying that at Hillsborough aren't they?

 

[Jan Age]

My neighbour is sound before his half time pint. Second half he babbles on about what formation we are playing and I have to listen to him randomly saying numbers between 1 and 5 for the next half hour. Had to tell him to shut up a couple of times. Nice lad though.

Either he has very low tolerance to alcohol or it's not a pint he's having at half time.

Sat 'opposite' you, she's int South stand and you're in the John street stand? I like the cut of your jib sir.

The example I mentioned was from Saturday in the BL upper mate, by a group sat a few rows back from us. It was aimed at that Maddison tosser after feigned injury then strolled off the field applauding us. The atmosphere was particularly fired up in there towards the end.

In the family stand I tend to find it like everywhere else, the odd burst here and there but on occasion I have heard it all through the game. I suppose it depends where abouts you sit.
