Snap. It's a shame we share the stadium with FC, if we didn't I'd be able to say that no one else has ever parked their arse on my seat since the day the stadium was built.
Front row, West Lower, block to right of home dugout. Cos of the lack of seats in front I can get up and run about when we score!
West Stand is usually very quiet, I'll give you that. IMO though it had fewer cocks than the East Stand. The Forest game last season I was in the North East corner with my boy and before a ball had been kicked I was nearly scrapping with two **** wits stood behind me. When I got the tickets I knew it would be lively in that part of the ground and the language would be colourful so it had nothing to do with that. Severe attitude problem , some in that part of the ground think they are real hard men and no one else in the ground supports City. To quote AP 'Needless to say I had the last laugh'
Fascinating, gripping and compelling........oh and I always used to piss in the west stand middle level toilets, about half way along..................whether anyone was stood there or not. Then I "tried" to wash my hands under a tap that dribbled 0.00005 litres of water an hour, and dried them on anyones jacket.
Worryingly I was until you said that. It's made worse by the fact that when it was on TV the first time round a few of us had a challenge to get as many lines into conversation with people without them noticing as possible the next day (a bit like the England interviews with song titles from France '98). Chalk it up, and back of the net were easy enough, one of them tried jackanackanory though.
We did the same at work. 'Unbelievable' was easy enough but my favourite was ' Who do you think you are?' Which wasn't as easy.
Being 18, I can safely say I'm not bald. I'm the guy that doesn't shut up all game, and has lately started to notice how quiet everyone else is. I don't mean in backing the team but hardly anyone talks around me, I feel a bit silly when I'm off on one of my rants. That said, I'm not sure if I do sit in W4 now. They only started making the W numbers in the west stand obvious relatively recently, I know it's Block 34 anyway. We wouldn't all fit in the East. I'm a big Partridge fan, but it took me until this post to get it. Sounds like a top game, I probably do it anyway mind.
I don't have that problem. The guy next to me gives me a running commentary, I don't mind because like you said nobody else even talks never mind sings. Before I was a regular season ticket holder I used to get tickets on general sale and usually sat in East or I could only get North when we was in the PL. I have to agree with what somebody said above that you get less arseholes in West. I'm not saying that people who sit in East stand are all arseholes, there's just a higher arsehole to normal person ratio. The dead atmosphere is still annoying. But I think it's a bit of a myth that it's only West stand who don't sing. Other than E1-4 and pockets of the South the whole stadium is dead.
i dont think a day has passed since 1997 when i havent quoted him , i follow the religion of alan strictly i got his book for christmas, its "lovely stuff"
