Griffo

Try this out.. Post a picture of a ground, whoever guesses correctly first then has to post one up next.

I'll start:

Could be on my own here but there we go, worth a try

I hadn't seen Window Lickers 'nonce' post, so it looked like 'you' were the one having a pop, so for that my apologies, although the post above makes you look a bit silly to be fair. In either case, tact and diplomacy isn't your strong point, but I won't hold it against you.

 

 

 

Have you talked to anybody regarding your literal thinking? I appreciate you're probably not the sharpest tool in the Southampton toolbox, although you may be the biggest, but sometimes it's important to realize when somebody is joking and not taking themselves too seriously. Of course my post ensured we won the match. Did you really think it was because we outplayed you?

 

 

 

The bird at work who cashes your Giro for you?

 

The questionnaire is something we do every week in order to keep in touch with other forums, and to be fair, only the Saints forum has disappointed, or rather 3 or 4 thicko's letting their forum down and embarrassing the good lads who gave it a go (thanks to them). We all love a bit of banter, but banter is generally fun, whilst being a jerk like your 2 lickle fwends will always be just that.

 

To the decent posters on here, I thought it was a cracking game of football, and you have some great players who with a bit more experience at this level could go on to great things. I wish you well for the season, and indeed for the New Year, and thanks very much for being sports.

 

All the best.

Anyone that says 'banter' is a definite c*nt as well. Go away and brown nose the next team you're playing.

I remember hearing Man city fans sing it last season at SMS and thinking 'WTF is that?' Thou and behold at Barnsley away a small group of lemons are singing it about Steven/kelvin Davis, it's sad that I'm not surprised by this.

 

As for the reindeer onezies, it's people having fun, they're mad! They're crazy! They know how to have fun! Attention seeking divs every one of them.

I'm glad I was nicely intoxicated enough at Barnsley to not remember it happening. Only know because you mentioned it. You should be glad you didn't make it today, these nobs ruined the whole day for me. Anyone caught singing this song in future should be given an automatic football ban for life as well as a well earned place on the sex offenders register because let's be honest, leaving the house in a onesie or singing the song mentioned is the behaviour of either a current sex case or a future offender.

Oh dear. As for our fans not being like it in the championship, have you forgotten about the clown suits at 'boro and the road cone helmets At he home game v Coventry? Plus the bell ends in the Northam who wears a reindeer antler hat every Christmas and the bloke who wears the tinsel wig. They have always been there, the undercurrent of mongness. The English disease.

It's inexcusable but at least Coventry and Middlesbrough were big occasions. We wouldn't have anyone (in the main) like that in our away ends for the normal games like Everton was today. Seems like now we're in the Prem we attract more of these people. I don't understand how anyone can possibly contemplate leaving their house in a reindeer onesie as well as copying what is probably the worst football song I have ever heard. Beggars belief. I'm going to sit in the corner rocking up and down until I've calmed down.

Did they do the hand movements too?

Yes. I've heard it sung by small groups at Barnsley, Sunderland and at a couple of league aways too but today it caught on properly. I hope we sell the both of them just to sack this sh*t song off.

Should have got a point really. Now onto our support. Spastics. That Steven/Kelvin Davis song is w*nk and singing songs such as "you are very boring" to their family stand. Added to the fact there were a group of tits in reindeer onesies. I despair. We weren't anything like this in League One and the Championship, I wonder where these people have come from.

After 2 years of away games in the Prem now, Everton definitely have the worst home support of the lot. Absolutely awful, genuinely can only remember hearing them once or twice during the whole game. Presumably they'd say "we're only playing Southampton" but then so are every other team we play so that's no excuse. Even Arsenal/United/Chelsea etc make a bit of noise compared to these lot.

Let's all slap each other on the back and wish everyone well for the season, compliment each other and wish each other the best of luck. Yawn. If this nonce signs up to every forum of the teams they play and wishes them the best of luck then Everton aren't going to end up doing very well this season, are they..

Funny that. Although Everton fans have just as much of a chip on their shoulder as Liverpool fans. They have an awful home support with no real standing area like we have with the Northam or even the Itchen North, and their away support tends to be sat down in the majority. Oh and I f*cking hate the accent.

Were you and the other idiot chosen to make Saints fans look thick or did you sneak between everybody's legs and run to the front?

Why don't you spend your day doing something better than arse licking people that don't even support your team on an internet forum then?

Griffo you are in my opinion an absolute cretin.

P*ss off you bore

Sounds as if it's just the Football League. Doubt it'd happen in the Prem?

Luckily the initial trains we booked are still just about ok for the early kick off. We had 300 up there in the League Cup with a late rearrangement so would like to think we'll have about 800 up there.

He hasn't made any mistakes on purpose and comes across as a nice lad too so I've got nothing against him. He was the first one to rush over to our away end at the final whistle today and waited for ages for a member of his family to come down to get his match shirt off him.

I read in the paper on Sunday that he was waiting to see if he got selected for the World Cup because his wedding was planned for a similar sort of time.

Most of you are mongs but f*ck it, happy Christmas to every single one of you, and up the Saints!

Regardless of how good/bad anyone is, you shouldn't say that about your teammates, especially during the game. Hardly going to do any good.

Classic auto correct, last time I went in there was a fair few hull fans, probably wouldn't be all that much bother unless it's one loud mouth spurs fan

I find that hard to believe.

You're making out like adaptation to the host culture isn't happening. By and large, it is. Most people who have moved from another country to live here have had to make huge adjustments to their own lives.

 

There has been a black community in this country for over three hundred years. Granted, the fifties broadened that community massively, but even then, when do the descendants of those immigrants need to stop adapting? How many generations do you think is appropriate before we finally say "fair enough, you're a Brit, people will have to adapt to you too"?

 

Immigration is a two-way street. To do as you suggest, you have to assume that their is some kind of cultural norm that immigrants to ascribe to. As we've seen on the Nationalism thread, just identifying ourselves is enough of a problem. What do we hold up as the normal standard that immigrants should adhere to? You must have some idea of the "core of Britishness" that immigrants should adopt, but I certainly don't, and wouldn't know where to start if I tried.

 

Finally, let's divorce ourselves from the notion that golly is an innocent character. I can accept that as children, people will have thought that. As adults living in a more enlightened age and a much more nuanced understanding of race relations, doesn't wash as well. Your childhood memories can stay as they are. The discussion is whether golliwog is an acceptable toy or term to use in 2013. Personally, I'm happier with the more authentic representation of black people that I live and work with. Golly has had its time.

You're a very strange person. You love being offended on other people's behalf don't you?

every single person who has gotten all emotional about the character depicted on product being sold has been white.

That doesn't surprise me at all.

I am white, yes. My point is that, while people might not find gollywogs offensive, they are still racist to a degree. It's something that i've talked about with my friends of all ethnicities.

You and your friends must have some proper exciting times together.

Females. All as f*cking mad as each other.

You can buy gollywogs in brixton or at least you could before the 'village' was taken over by middle class cheese and champagne bars. I would guess mikey knows nothing about brixton (sorry mikey) and imagines its some kind of black power homeland.

Brixton is getting gentrified now, as you said, like a lot of inner London areas. There are tons of places in London that have a lot more blacks than Brixton does.

Every black person I know really wouldn't give a f**k to be honest. What do you know about Brixton?

Probably gone there to head bang to a few sh*t bands.

The last name on that list can be clearly found on Facebook and Twitter and looks like the dinlo that ran into the Northam from their end. Not that I'd advocate any nice messages being sent to him.

I know the lad that ran over to the P*mpey fan - nice guy! Just really really hates the Skates..haha.

Hates them so much that he ran over all that way over, walked in to the path of a steward and then turned and walked straight back to the Itchen.
