Pre-Match View From Birmingham

[The Crab]

Birmingham is just what depression looks like in physical form, a shithole of gargantuan proportions, the punchline to an unfunny joke.
Second biggest city and they can't even muster a fanbase bigger than Boltons. Of course, their individual fanbase is the largest I've ever seen because their fans are predominantly fat cunts.
And that's before I even mention that godawful dialect, with it's whole 'I've recently had a stroke' vibe.

They look shit, sound shit, their team's shit and I would enjoy sending them closer to relegation even if we had nothing to play for.

Not overly keen.

I think maybe the fanbase thing is because most of the population would rather bugger off and watch a bigger club like Wolves or Villa.

Their most notable fan is Jasper Carrot, a man whose career has gone downhill faster than a fat lass on a shopping trolley.

Glad you added the closing line - before that I had gained the overall impression they were high on your list of 'favourite other teams'.

To be fair to Jasper, he lit the blue touch paper on "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" and watched his wedge grow exponentially.

Thought that was Chris Tarrant? Apparently, Millionaire os coming back with Jeremy Clarkson.

Carrot did Goldenballs, worst quiz show ever. Some cunt somewhere thought "I know, lets make a show where everyone stabs each other in the fucking back"

He's got a pair of Jugs, on his head

To the tune of 'he's got a pair of jugs, on his head'.

 

[Silent Blade]

Trevor Francis another reason to dislike them. Didn't they sign a couple of Argentinian stars after we signed Sabella but it never worked out?.

Just Alberto Tarantini

Loved Jasper back in the day & still get the old DVD's out to watch from time to time. Thought he might be knocking on a bit but having looked it up he's 73 !!

If Bert's memory is functioning correctly today it thinks that Jasper owns the rights to the programme.

Tarrant fronted it - and made a tidy packet but Carrot coined it in. Format sold all over the world

Really?

Terrible programme Bert. He was ok back in the day, and I'm glad he's still knocking about, but Goldenballs was shocking.

I have a dislike of the dingles but they would make my day if they could stay up at the expense of these fuckers. No wonder Brummies all sound like miserable twats having to watch this team of no hoper's. Have they ever won owt in their entire history ? Little wonder all they seem bothered about is 1970's hooliganism even their own Jasper Carrot takes the piss out of them.

 

[originaltrueblade]

I'm the opposite, went to Uni in Birmingham. Walking round the city centre makes me realise just how far Sheffield is behind other major cities - we are nowhere near. There are some extremely affluent areas along with the usual junk areas as in most cities.
I wouldn't say it's great but for facilities etc I think they are miles ahead. All rail stations had massive upgrades, different quarters for tourists - not sure what Sheffield offers in return.

What does Sheffield offer in return you ask. Yorkshire folk mate can’t beat em !

No, missed a sitter

That's right I was there anall must be the age lol.

League Cup against Arsenal in 2011

The only thing I know about them is that they talk funny.

I mean, why would you wash your hands in a Bison?

Because you are late for the buzz and if you don't get to school on time you will get detention to die.

Some great kebab/curry gaffs though despite the inglish.
