Pre-Match View From Millwall

[coaxingstar71]

Some people can be very humourless unfortunately. They probably watch Batman films and say 'that wunt 'appen in real life'.

...and are Wendy fans.

Nice one as usual Roy, loved the A-Z

 

[GaryHamsonsLeftBootLace]

I don't mind Millwall. The Milwall Radio presenter is a very nice lady...

 

[Coily]

Posted this blog on a few Facebook sites and was surprised at how angry people are by the A-Z. I found it funny and saw parallels with the Dem Blades blog too.

This is because far too many people these days like nothing better than to be angry or offended cunts.

The Millwall view froms have been good value from the ones I've seen. Love their football, love their club but don't take things too seriously and fucking hate West Ham. Plenty to admire, even if they'd shiv you for looking at them. And that's just in their family section.

Wonder if the one who did the A-Z was the same 'geezer' who was on here a couple of seasons back (think it was the Hammond debut game) with his real life cockerney honest to goodness knockabout humour

Lager top you Norvern mankey!

Shat it you slag... cockles and mussels

 

[I should coco]

Also, lived in Sheffield and it was done out of warm feelings to the place & team.

Didn't our very own 1980 also say he lived in Sheffield?

If it's you mate, well done. Football fans who aren't deluded and have a sense of humour? It'll never catch on......

 

[Weasel]

A-Z of Sheffield United very good, although factually incorrect in parts (United and Wednesday were both referred too as Blades and Cutlers in the early years), an amusing read nonetheless!

He also got it wrong about the Lane being Wendy's old ground. It's never belonged to the Pigs. They played a few games there in the long and distant past but then quite a few Sheffield based teams did as well as it was a decent pitch to play on. It didn't belong to any team until it became the home of sufc.

As an aside I think Wendy have played on about 7 home pitches / grounds in Sheffield overy the years. They dont claim to have had 7 home grounds. Thry only claim BL as some sort of bragging right but even then it just shows them up for the chumps they are for getting kicked out of the best ground in Britain. They are the footballing equivalent of dirty unwashed pikeys.

 

[Piffle and Tosh]

I agree with that, I quite like them to be honest. I’d rather play Millwall every week over teams like Reading and Fulham.

And six fingers norwich

I saw a program a while back where a bloke had neurosurgery, a proper lads lad, into football, etc, think he was a builder or something. When he woke up he was gay and went on to become a hairdresser.

Full on gay as well, not just another bloke, fully kitted out gay.

Just saying.

That’s because when you have neurosurgery, they have to pump a huge 8” wide, 14 “ long dildo like object up your ring piece, to stimulate a nerve that connects to a certain part of the brain. Unfortunately, you can’t sit down for 6 months after, and you have to wear a nappy.

Good luck though, Liverpool blade

I'm suprised you were suprised Roy!

Remember your audience.

The A-Z was great. My fave was:

G is for Greasy Chip Butty song – sung to the tune of “Annie’s Song”, it celebrates Sheffield culture – such as getting fat and smoking & drinking yourself to death.

 

[Freethinker]

Cheers Roy. Much appreciated as always. That A-Z is a funny read but they might need educating on the beer that is available now?. Utb. Last post from me for a while as I'm in hospital from tomorrow for my neurosurgery. Cheers all.

All the best mate hope everything goes well utb

 

[mosbolad]

I quite enjoyed that A-Z.
I'm not sure we are particularly known for our number of roundabouts though.

Sheffield like Rome is built on 7 roundabouts.............

 

[Trigger Blade]

It's quite remarakble, many are in agreement that this is a classic View From and the football barely gets a mention.

How we could have done with less mention of the football over recent seasons

Imagine if they had moved into the Lane ... on the downside, in all likelihood, we'd have all been WAWAW (if I knew how to put those emoji things in, this is where the shock/horror one would have been) ... on the upside we'd all be Blades and have a home ground at Bramall Lane with a bit of luck as all Sheffield would have been united behind one team, they'd have dropped the stupid midweek day name and made it easy for us all as Sheffield United

" L " is for Like Roy. Cheers mate.

Best " view from " I've seen . The A-Z is absolute quality .

Good luck!!

Cheers Roy that a-z though

Now that is a weirdo ! Not you Roy the A_Z one!

Well we are all going to die sometime may as well die happy. Quite amusing that A-Z if a little factually incorrect. Usually a hard game at Millwall even when they are utter shit I think the guy going on about possession football might be in for a shock when we play it in their third of the pitch. Strange for them to be higher up than Charlton.

Ta.

 

[Caveblade]

Thanks Roygbiv great read as usual. Hats of to the author of the a-z, good to see a sense of humour from a Millwall fan.

 

[spongebobblade]

Nice one Roy!
You’ve got while 5.30pm for the post match view or lots goin up

 

[Diamondlife]

Cheers Roy, appreciated as always mate

 

[DifferentClass]

I'm surprised the comment about the Prince only made it as far as "No, he is not one of the local taxi drivers made good"...

 

[1980]

A-Z of Sheffield United very good, although factually incorrect in parts (United and Wednesday were both referred too as Blades and Cutlers in the early years), an amusing read nonetheless!

Doesn't it say the original Blades though... And as Wednesday were around a good few years before United, they are the 'original' Blades in respect of Wednesday & United. However, didn't all Sheffield sides have that nickname in those days?

 

[1980]

He also got it wrong about the Lane being Wendy's old ground. It's never belonged to the Pigs.

They are the footballing equivalent of dirty unwashed pikeys.

It actually reads that Wednesday used the ground and then stopped using it - not that they were ever the occupants/owners of the ground.

 

[1980]

Strange for them to be higher up than Charlton.

Oi. Since the introduction of 4 tiers in 1958 Millwall & Charlton have played pretty much the exact same amount of seasons in the second tier!

And as an aside, it is also the most one sided derby in English football - 35 Millwall wins to just 12 wins in 74 fixtures for the trainspotters! And there's a fair few wallopings in that lot too, 6/5/4 nils. It's been 21 years since they beat us.
