sfc4prem Posted 22 April, 2012 Share Posted 22 April, 2012 WHO cares if people want to dress up and have a laugh.

Saint Lindford Posted 22 April, 2012 Share Posted 22 April, 2012 Saints fans yesterday were immense. I do not care if you are 5 or 55 and dress as a clown, paint your face or wear fancy dress, your support yesterday was great. We did a 600 mile round trip yesterday for a game that was a 5.20 kick off on TV and there were 3,000 of us there. THAT IS FANTASTIC. There was NO noise from the home fans until they scored the second goal, all that could be heard was the Saints fans. Well done to all who went, the only sad ones were the chav home fans who abused people as we walked away from the ground, did make me laugh that one idiot walked past me and had to shouted "2-1", well done for that, hope that lessons next week will help the little cherub count past 3. , Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The9 Posted 22 April, 2012 Share Posted 22 April, 2012 Did we lose today due to the lack of support up at Boro? Team lack focus when running out to see banks of empty seats in the away end? Can you blame them for thinking if the supporters can't be bothered, why should we? There was no "lack of support", I assure you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, this sort of mong type behaviour is for clubs like Reading, not us. You don't see Man United, Spurs or Leeds fans dressed up in gimp suits, silly hats, costumes and wigs.

Pat from Poole Posted 22 April, 2012 Share Posted 22 April, 2012 Personally I was far more offended by being surrounded by a number of fans who spent much of the game mucking about with their mobile phones rather than vocally supporting the team. It totally baffles me why people travel all that way to faff about with their iPhones and Blackberry phones when they can do that any time of the week.

Ash Posted 22 April, 2012 Share Posted 22 April, 2012 Can you please explain how dressing up like a moron is "having a laugh"? I'd love to know what I'm missing out on and a lot of us don't seem to be getting it. I'll enlighten you. People are different. Some people like dressing up, some don't. Some like football, some don't. Some go on internet forums, some don't. Some take what they wear serioulsy, some don't. Take this information to heart and live out the rest of your days pondering things more important than what a man you don't know is wearing. It reflects badly on us as club. Do you really want us to be a laughing stock? To be honest, I don't give a **** what Trinny and Susannah think about us. Yesterday I was wearing a pair of jeans, some nice brown shoes and a jumper. I didn't wear any facepaint or play with any balloons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ericb Posted 22 April, 2012 Share Posted 22 April, 2012 The mongs in the facepaint/wigs/fancy dress are pretty embarrassing but to be honest it's part of our support and if they've got no self respect then that's their fault. Personally i'm going to go to games as i always have, have a few drinks, make a fu.ck load of noise and then avoid all those mongs after the game as best i can.

Regardless, I fail to understand why people faff about on their phones when other games are on. As Adkins says, "control the controllables", you can't control other games' scores, but you can help Saints by singing yourself hoarse and cheering them on and making it intimidating for the oppo.

It's a fair point - but surely you will be teeny bit interested in following the west ham score (if it matters) next week? It is possible to both shout, scream, sing, jump up and down AND keep an eye on other scores at certain times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wagon 84 Posted 22 April, 2012 Share Posted 22 April, 2012 I am a fairly intolerant bloke it must be said. I do not suffer fools gladly, as they say. HOWEVER, I have absolutely no problem whatsoever with people wearing fancy dress, hats, blowing up balloons, painting their face et al for a football match. Why the f*** do people care about it? Are you worried that people might think it is you or what? Listen mate, as you say its a football match, if i wanna see that then id go to a circus! As for people caring? yes i do! when you get your fishy friends texting you during the game saying you belong in a walt disney parade...! Yes it is embarrassing. Please Stop It Now!!!!
