idiots at SMS

[Turkish]

i had one sitting next to me today, i know he was a knob from the moment i set eyes on him, early twenties, 20+ degrees today and wearing a saints shirt and one of those knobby winter beany hats (why?). Proceeded to shout all through the game, which is fine, no problem with that, however when the ball is in the left back area and they shout "go on Dan" like he is about to strike with an open goal at his mercy, consitantly for 90 minutes, it becomes a little wearing. Also moaning about the team trying to play to much football and also a "f*cking great ball" when any defender cleared the ball with a hump away. Do we have more than our fair share of c*nts who have no idea about football in our fanbase, or are most clubs like this?

[Saint_clark]

There were more than usual around in the Northam today.

[Matthew Le God]

Same at pretty much every stadium in the world.

[Saint_lambden]

Another slag off our fan-base thread.

 

Doesn't exactly sound like he was doing anything different to about 18/19,000 other people today , probably thought you were a "c*nt" as well

[Turkish]

i used to watch Leeds a fair bit when i lived up that way and i dont think there were quite a many ****s as we have. Another irritant of mine is when the away team make a sub and teh crowd say "who" why? It's pointless and pathetic.

[Right sider]

Wouldn't know about other clubs apart from non league where it doesn't happen. But I reckon it is probably a problem in Championship as well as ticket prices would keep this sort of fan away from the PL!

It's a genuine query, I'm just trying to be nice to the bloke by asking him who he is. If they repeated it on the tannoey then I'd say 'Oh, him' then shut up.

i doubt it, it's down to a lack of intellegence and a general understanding of the game. The divs in our crowd that shout for a foul everytime an away player makes a challenge on one of ours is embarassing. This particular worzel/numpty was doing my head in, no idea what was going on on the field of play and tried to join in every song sung by the northam but about 3 lines behind every song, to be honest i felt embarrassed for him being such a complete crumpet.

who really gives a f*ck who the third sub for Tranmere is, the "who" cry is just for mongs.

[rocknrollman no2]

Lighten up Turkish.

Lots of people shout "Who" when an opposition sub is made.Its part of supporting your team.

I do agree with you though about having someone near you slagging off the team for no reason ,or getting songs,players wrong etc.But i guess everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

[RobM]

Man shouting at football player at football stadium shocker.

[dubai_phil]

Blimey.

 

Wow, another poster has noticed something that took me years of being away to notice. The UK is full of Whingeing Poms.

 

Last week against the Cherries, some bloke near me was standing up red in the face spitting F****g get on with it you f***g moron.... while we were 2-0 up with about a minute of injury time to go and we were playing keep possession.

 

Turkish, don't get annoyed by them, just step back and realise what sad miserable lives they must live and how lucky you are to have been able to notice and rise above it

[Lord Duckhunter]

The ones that do my head in are the ones that leave early or go down to the bars before half time.There was a bloke near me for the Boscombe game moaning to his mate about the price of football. Then on the 40th minute he gets up and goes down to the bar area, I was going to point out the irony of him not getting his moneys worth, but he looked pretty hard.When I think of the number of goals I've seen just before the end or just before half time, some great ones as well. Why would you do it? Would you leave a concert or cinema before the end. I can see it now, "went to see Paul macartney at the weekend", "did he sing Let it Be?", "I dunno I left 5 minutes early to aviod the traffic".

shouting "who" is not getting behind your team, its f*cking sh*t and embarassing. I honestly cringe when our knobhead fans do that.

How about a 50 question Saints/football knowledge test before entering SMS anyone who doesn't get 50 out of 50 is banned for life? Or maybe only those with FIFA coaching badges should be allowed in? Footballs a game of opinions if it's really painful for you to suffer watching football with other people you could just watch saints player and Dave Merrington can give you full commentry as someone who knows the game inside and out.

[RobM]

I don't see anything wrong with a bit of intimidation, booing the opposition, 'Whoooo' or anything else to get on the oppositions back. Anything that can distract them just a tiny bit is a good thing... especially if in the long term it makes people wary of SMS. It's all a part of football, don't take it so seriously.

As i have made it clear on other threads, i detest people that go and fill their faces with pies and burgers at half time. A half time pint is acceptable but why people feel the need to eat as much as possible the minute they set foot in a football stadium is beyond me.

[sfc4prem]

I personally find the "Who?!?" shout quite amusing. Lighten up mate.

I'd have left early to avoid having to listen to "Let it be" myself

the "whoo" thing is just sh*t. No at all intimdating,funny or clever, it's gash.

[Turkish]

what is funny about it? explain.

[RobM]

the "whoo" thing is just sh*t. No at all intimdating,funny or clever, it's gash.

 

It's just fun, it's not serious, it's not aggressive, it's not doing anybody any harm. It's just about putting down the opposition in the vague hope it might distract them. Nothing wrong with that at all, it's what we should be doing IMO.

 

If we were talking about getting at our own team I'd be with you 100%, but we're not.

 

For the sake of balance then, what do you consider to be an acceptable thing to shout at the opposition?

this! i agree Turkish he sounded like a **** but just let it wash over you mate. not worth yet another thread.

FWIW, I think it's at Stoke where all the crowd shout 'who?' and then launch into some intimidating chant.

.. it sounds pretty good

They also sing OWTS much better than we ever have

[suewhistle]

Don't worry, few of us take Turkish seriously, even if he has his occasional decent point to make. I must admit when I saw the thread title I wouldn't really like to say who immediately came to mind.;-)

Most teams do, especially Spurs We just seem to make it waaaayy too fast so it quickly descends into a pile of undistinguishable noise. Shame, because it is "our" song...

maybe you should start a thread "single and wanting it" after the way you touted yourself on another thread of mine you couldn't help yourself but post on. Not bad for someone you think is an "idiot", admit it SUe, you find me amusing and curiously interesting. If you weren;t so unattractive i might even let yhou suck me off.,

Fun? Is that what you call it? I'd call it idiotic.

[RobM]

Explain why then? Rather than just calling everything idiotic, explain your reasons as you're asking others to do?

[sfc4prem]

Turkish sounds like a really, really boring old man frustrated because he has never truly understood how to enjoy life, spending his days staring through a rain-splattered window longing to be happy.

[simo]

All you ever do is ***** Turkish!

[aintforever]

I think the "who" thing has caught on because it's only a few years ago we were used to watching the Beckhams and Lampards every week, now were playing nobodies week in week out.

 

I just watched them today but I couldn't name one Tranmere player.

[Turkish]

it is idiotic because there is not an ounce of intelligence or humour in the "chant" Songs to Bournemouth such as 2-0 in your cup final, are funny as they are arrogant and amusing and puts them in their place. Shouting "who" when some no mark sub comes on the pitch is none of this, it is about as funny as a chinese burn and certainly not "fun" do you all point at each othe laughing about how mad you all are when you say it at matches? Mugs.

[Genk]

Got to love fans in the stands who criticise the managers decisions too when they clearly don't have a clue about managing a football team

[Turkish]

or the other view is because i enjoy life and know what fun is, i dont find it "fun" to shout "Who" when a player comes on as sub for a team i care nothing for.

[doddisalegend]

Thats what fans do. Are you suggesting that only those fans who have managed a league football club are allowed to debate a managers descisions?

Shouting that to Bournemouth puts them down and belittles them.

Shouting 'Who' at players puts them down and belittles them.

Both are light hearted banter.

[RobM]

That's pretty much what this forum is dedicated to

 

We all know best, always.

but shouting "Who" is moronic, no wit or humour needed. You could get a retard to shout that. 2-0 in your cup final is funny, witty and belittles these small clubs, shouting "who" is idiotic and takes the intelligence of a 3 year old.

[Deppo]

As somebody said, they are in every stadium. If you didn't notice the **** at Elland Road, it was you.

I disagree, I see no difference and see both as equal. This conversation is moronic and childish though, it is OK if people disagree with you. People wont laugh at you.

is it realy that important ? after a good performance today & the continuation of our revival is this the most pressing thing on your mind ?

lighten up! i usualy like reading your posts

[The Cat]

I hate the "who" thing too. It's disresepectful, childish and arrogant. It could only ever be funny if used sarcastically, perhaps if we were 6-0 up at Old Trafford and Rooney came on as sub for Man Utd.

 

It's arrogant because it suggests we feel we should be watching better players. It's childish in it's pettiness, we do it every *****ing time a sub comes on. EVERY TIME. And oh, here comes someone we've never heard of making their debut. Lets belittle him even though it's a great moment in his career which none of us will ever be lucky enough to achieve.

 

While I'm at it, the "you fat bastard" which we, hahahaha, chant EVERY TIME their keeper takes a goal kick, hahahaha, hold on my sides are splitting. GROW UP. Next time their keeper is taking a goal kick, just hold on, think, stop yourself. There's a lull in the game. Maybe check your watch, do you need a slash, hungry? You could turn round to your mate and chat about the brilliant move we just put together, or the fact Puncheon has a nicer butt than J-Lo, or start a new chant (actually don't do that, it'll be cack) or, or, or JUST STFU AND KEEP QUIET.

 

It makes us look lame. We're projecting an amateurish image in front of League 1 fans, some of which have spent half their supporting lives actually watching amateur football. I bet quite few new teams fans come down here expecting our ex-Prem fans to be quite good and all they get is the same old, same old. Reminds me of the Bill Hicks line - "just hold on while I plaster on a fake smile and plough through this 5hIt one more time".

 

Bring back the *****ing Archers, or the Milton. It's embarrassing.

[saintscottofthenortham]

What a truly pointless thread.

 

Next time a total nobody from the opposition makes his way onto the pitch I will do my best to get northam singing "I dont know who you are but you are better than me as you are playing at St Mary's!".

 

Some of you really are a sad bunch who I sincerely hope, for all our sakes, get a life soon enough. I reckon your the sort that phone in to the BBC when a "Discriminative", "Offensive" or "Racist" (Baa Baa Black Sheep) and complain, yet continuously voted labour despite the country spiraling deeper and deeper into oblivion under there control. Basically, you wil voice your opinion over an utter load of boo larks but keep your lips firmly far kin schtum when something that, put into perspective, has far more importance.

 

Stop slagging off our support ffs, until that is, you can lead the way in how to support our club in the right manner.

 

I.M.O... Pr1ck.

I would just like to remind you of the Stockport game at SMS last season. First half (in front of the Northam) he was literally shee iting a brick. Fluffed every kick, dropped every ball that came his way and pretty much humiliated himself...

 

Second Half (in front of the Chapel), he was fine.

This, and 'Wotsit give us a wave' (those there will know...) are two mighty fine examples of this chant working nicely. Excellent distraction.

[aintforever]

Two 2-0 wins in a row and the mongs on SWF still find something to moan about.

Same happened to big willy the Dons keeper last season couldn't kick a ball that stayed on the pitch that day as he got more wound up with every chant, although to be fair he was a bloody awful keeper and actually quite porky to boot.

[sandwichsaint]

Wot a golden thread!

 

Have to fes-up that I do the whole 'Wwhhhooo?' thing, but I'd like to think that I do it in a self-aware and slightly ironic fashion, call it panto if you like!

 

In fact I do it in much the same way that I booed NC's picture at the JPT - there I've said it - forget this Mexican wave balleros - FACT, NC was booed at the JPT final and I was one of the ones wot done it.

 

Singing about Boscombe's 'cup final'? ... now that IS fecking embarrassing!
