The celebrations for both goals were tame as fuck, zero limbage, which upset me a bit. We've been proper fucking docile and Fulhamtastic in the stands this season.

Considering we used to celebrate goals like this...

I was behind that goal. Massive hangover. I fell asleep standing up.
 
I said hello to sitwell not long after full time if that’s what they mean?

It's been like it for a couple of years now unfortunately. I've commented previously. I've lost count of the times I've seen TV footage of the players celebrating a goal in front of the kop and in the background, people are politely clapping while some are looking down at their phones, probably texting the score. Case in point, Tommy Doyle's last minute screamer against Blackburn. Watch the TV footage of that and there are a couple of people on their phones, bottom corner of the kop and some look like they're clapping a batsman out to the middle.
 
Was in both the pen at Oldham behind the net and in the pen behind the net at Saints (that was a very long day as basically went straight to Southampton from the chucking out of the night club in Sheffield). Both goals were celebrated with maximum exuberance. Oldham one was fucking mental though. Only one to better it possibly was the Booker last minute headed goal at QPR to seal safety in early 90s. I remember us going bananas at Villa Park when United scored a goal to equalise for the first time in about 8 games, and I remember a very exuberant celebration for Deane's late leveller at the Baseball Ground in 91. Mad mad scenes each and every one. We travelled well in those days and were rough and ready.

Yep, it's a sad state of affairs. An indicator of how pathetically sanitised the game is becoming.

Plus we live in a world now where every fucker simply HAS to document every waking moment through a fucking phone camera, rather than simply experiencing and enjoying it. As I said, utterly pathetic.

The Villa one was a Vinny Jones header. IIRC our fans were almost on the pitch.

As evidenced by the sorry fuckers who have to tell everyone on social media about what a totally fantastic time they are having on their holidays and boring every fucker back home senseless about how great everything is...rather than just enjoying themselves and living for the moment itself. They are obsessed with trying to tell everyone how much fun they are having and how wonderful their life is. All total false and insecure. Just enjoy the fucking experience you sad bastards. And no one else gives a shiny fuck. It's moved on now from when you had to sit looking at someone's holiday snaps and trying to look remotely interested.

That rings a bell. Think we still lost the game 2-1 anyway, but at least we had scored a goal! Also remember us having fun in the away end when Edwards scored a late goal for his 200th league goal at Ewood Park in the 80s. Trouble is I think we were 5 or 6 down at the time. Ha ha. The result wasn't the be all and end all in those days, we cared sure, but it was also about the day out itself and the laugh with your mates.

Spot on. I noticed Dave Gahan of Depeche Mode recently told everyone at a gig to put their phones away and just enjoy the moment.

If there's one piece of technology I wish was never invented it's the mobile phone.

He does right too. He's old school and been entertaining his crowd for 40 odd years now. Probably sick of seeing them wave a phone around when he's trying to sing. Bearing in mind he flatlined a couple of times back in the 90s you would think DM fans would just want to enjoy the gig (hope he's very much clean these days as he did seem to think he was the second coming of the Christ back in the 90s during the songs of faith and devotion tour). I saw him at the Sheffield Arena then and he was a tad egocentric but I suppose most 'rock stars in pain' are.

Mobiles are fine and a welcome addition to technology. It's the fools who cant enjoy themselves without using one constantly that I can't fathom.

It's like that at a lot of clubs these days in UK to be fair. People more interested in recording the player celebrating the goal than actually celebrating themselves.

Just the way it is in the modern era innit
 
There was traffic cone tennis and whack-a-brummie over the dividing metal fence, if that’s what you mean.

Probably in part a consequence of all seater stadia.

Fairly frequently I used to come out of a football ground with bruised and sore knee caps as a result of jumping up and down and banging them on the barriers.

If they do bring back standing areas at least I probably won't be able to jump high enough for that to be a problem any more.😊
