Evil Monkey Posted 29 March, 2010 Share Posted 29 March, 2010 Singing songs in The Wellington outside Waterloo after the game. Cant remember which song, but it must have had some naughty words in it, because a little girl no older than 7/8 shouted, 'Hey!!! There are children around you know!!!' Funny as f*ck.

Honk Kong Phooey Posted 29 March, 2010 Share Posted 29 March, 2010 I couldn't understand why so many people were leaving 10 mins before half time, after all this was our team playing at Wembley and they were more interested in beer!! I had trouble seeing the Carlisle goal. About 5 mins after the start of the 2nd half 3 lads were returning to there seats when one of them turned to the others on seeing the score to complain he'd only seen 1 goal.

moon monkey Posted 29 March, 2010 Share Posted 29 March, 2010 Funniest moment rather than comment came from block 531 at half time. Middle aged man, very very drunk was trying his very best to balance 5 large cokes in his arms with a number of straws in his mouth. For 10 mins he was just standing, trying to find his seat. Due to his alcohol consumption his balance wasn't great and eventually all the cokes gave way. I just thought 'hahahha what a t*sser' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many fans were getting on at Soton Central that the trains were not stopping at Eastleigh as they were so full! I parked my car at Eastleigh station on my way to catch the coach to Wembley and there were a great many fans trying to get into Soton to catch the train that would pass them by at Eastleigh! They all seemed cheerful enough - Must have been the early morning Magners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy Gabriel's Halo Posted 29 March, 2010 Share Posted 29 March, 2010 On the train home afterwards an American guy sits down next to me and says "What team do you support ?" - this despite the word "Southampton" being plastered everywhere on shirts, hat etc. This was followed by "Oh, Friends Provident...good company that".

Was at the Green Man and queue for the loos was horrendous so decided we may as well walk to the ground and I'd go there instead. Then, outside the ground, one of our party fell over and for the next 30 minutes I was crossing my legs talking to policemen and trying to figure out how the hell I was going to go round the back of the coaches to take a leak without the ambulance crew, 3 police men and a vanful of other police noticing. Had to go behind the coaches in the end and just hoped that they weren't stood downhill.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Le God Posted 29 March, 2010 Share Posted 29 March, 2010 Rickie Lambert wins the penalty. Stood up waiting for him to take a penalty at Wembley. Bloke behind me: "Can you sit down please" Me: "No" This is all. tbh that is quite pathetic. If it was a someone that couldn't stand easily at the drop of a hat or a small child you obstruct their view and force them to stand. By standing you cause a domino effect going backwards up the stand and people that have paid good money to see their team at Wembley miss it because for no real reason you want to stand. It is ok in theory doing it in the Northam end at St Mary's because people know that it will be like that. People don't have to go in the Northam. But at Wembley it is pointless and extremly selfish.

Wes Tender Posted 29 March, 2010 Share Posted 29 March, 2010 A group of us had fun chanting at the Carlisle fans going up their ramp at the end of Wembley Way where it meets the stadium, "your ramps too big for you" On the coach on the way there, there was some singing. Somebody started the chant, "we're the right side, we're the right side, we're the right side over here" Naturally this was taken up by chants "we're the left side" My son and I were right at the back, so had the opportunity of singing "we're the backside" to much mirth from the rest of those sat further forward.

SNSUN Posted 29 March, 2010 Share Posted 29 March, 2010 By the way guys, my dad was the moustachioed Station Supervisor at West Ruislip for those of you who went that way. He says you were all brilliant (he has to put up with his own son being a Saints fan), and he even made £3 in tips. (You cheapskates!) He said he had a lot of fun trying to rub you all up the wrong way. Oh, and for the record, he's a Torquay fan, so he hasn't got much to laugh about this season...

Matthew Le God Posted 29 March, 2010 Share Posted 29 March, 2010 (edited) Boring snoring! How would you feel if someone was stood up infront of your child or frail relative meaning they couldn't see the penalty? I'm guessing your avatar is your child. If someone stood in front of your child, would you not be a tad annoyed? I saw alot of elderly Saints fans remaining seated behind those standing up. They all missed it, yet you don't seem to give a sh!t. If everyone was seated everyone could have seen it just fine. What do you actually gain from standing to see a penalty?

I started drinking at 4.30pm on the Saturday, pulled an all nighter and didn't sleep, had a can outside So'ton Central at 5.30am and another couple more on the train up there. I didn't drink after that cos I didn't feel all too great. So I guess you could say I went up there for the football, and not the drinking.
