I'll be very disappointed if the west stand upper remains closed. This is as good a chance as we will ever get to see our club achieve the level of support it should get in a city and surrounding area as big as we have. A google search tells me that we have 600,000 people living in the east riding.

First time it happened it was 3 lads about 25, sat on the back of the seats. I thought they would sit down at kick off. They didn't so I asked them to sit properly and they stoof up and moved to the row behind and sat on the seats, weird but probably thought I would be a miserable **** all game!!

Then some new people pitched up who not only stand up quite a bit but also having some of the most disgusting eating habits I've ever seen. It's a weird set up, two men, one woman, one guy does not say a word when the other guy is there and just sits staring at the game whilst the other two are up and down (between pulled pork and chips) but when the main guy goes to toilet he and the woman are straight into conversation. The minute main guy returns the mute is back in his seat.

Part of me wants them to **** off and sit somewhere else, part of me is still keen to learn more, like David Bellemy when he discovers some rare group of monkeys.

Who we sit near would probably make a good thread. I sat next to a father and son for a few seasons - nice folk, refugees from West Upper. Never knew their names but we nicknamed them Flasker Senior and Junior. They apparently stopped their membership during covid as we’ve not seen them since. Hope they’re ok. Along the row there’s an older couple who turn out to be closet flaskers as they smuggled one in most of last season. The trick is big coat pockets apparently. It was a great row for a few seasons - we’re on the end and no one went for pies, pints or pees, so we could enjoy half time in peace. Now post lockdown all the new folk are constantly in and out, even during the match. . We’re up and down more times than a bride’s nightie.

Behind us are a group of mates who are good fun and keep up a running commentary to rival Burnsy and Swanny in the mix of banter, footballing insight, commentary and opinion on the pies.

Last time I had a season ticket, going on 10 years now, me and my dad sat next to a lovely old couple called Cliff and Eileen from South Cave, and in front of a bloke whose catchphrase was "don't let it bounce!"

Then there's the (too) popular "get it down" whenever there's 2 or more headers in a row. As if the players deliberately want to start a game of head tennis just for a laugh.
Some people come out with absolutely ridiculous stuff, and shout ridiculous abuse that they would never say to someone's face one on one. I honestly don't get it.

I had a mate who'd counter this by shouting 'keep it in the air' back when we played at Boothferry Park.

I must admit, I like a good old fashioned collective tut when something minor goes wrong.

Bloke near me "Change it up McCann/Adkins/Bruce etc" every match. Hasn't done it much recently, probably too many syllables in Shota's surname.
