We used to sit near a bloke in the South Stand who just shouted "Bloody rubbish City" regardless of a good, bad or indiferent peformance it seemed. His pinnacle of negativity was the game against Sheff Wed when we were already promoted and the Wendies needed to win to get into the play offs. Even though the joiners were nailing together the celebratory podium and the pyromaniacs were seeking out the blue touch paper, the minute the Wendies winner went in he stood up, screamed his catchphrase and stormed out. As he shoved passed us we did all suggest to him that he may like to stay around to applaud his team for their efforts over the whole of the season. He never sat near us again although I do still see him around the ground.
Haha, maybe. I think it was a pretty clear red that one mind. I'm beginning to think that with decisions like this one, the refs actually don't know what the rule is. Does anyone on here actually know what is an instant red card and what isn't? It definitely needs clearing up because nobody seems to know at the moment and it's making the players, teams and refs all look silly, and spoiling good matches.
Anyone who knows or has sat next to Guzzler will know the true meaning of sitting next to an annoying fan.
Guzzler one of the Goole lot? Constantly pissed at all matches? Are you a mate of/ know Joe Oldroyd or Michael Starkey by any chance? Think you said you live down that end of Bev.
I sit one row in front but one seat to the right of the most foul mouthed man I've ever come across. You go to football and you expect poor language but some of the words he possesses in his lexicon are absolutely brilliant. Without fail it's aimed at the ref every match, never any of our players and rarely any of theirs. It's actually quite funny, but we do sit one block from the family section and he sits on the end of the row. Everyone gets a good old laugh out of him usually because of his persistence, e.g. "you're ****ing **** ref, you're absolutely ****ing **** you blind ****, you ****ing ****, ****ing cheating ****". At the Derby match he felt we should have had a penalty, at which point similar to the above was shouted, showering me in balti pie.
i think i know who your on about from away matches, always comes in at 2.59 staggering up the stairs? nicknamed a while ago- village idiot...sorry if thats anybodies mate didnt go in at ipswich cos he refused to pay 30 quid, so waited in the car park for his minibus getting more wrecked?
Sounds like him. There has been a thread more or less dedicated to this sorry individual previously. Not my favourite person and I dare say I'm not his.
I haven't seen the challenge, but if you go in two footed you're supposed to be off. (Sky Sports Centre match commentary said he went in two footed, and then said it should only have been a yellow which would suggest that the media shouldn't be commenting on what should and shouldn't be a red card)
I know the name Michael Starkey. Are they about 20/21? Yes. Aye, saw him at West Ham a few years back talking about how he lives with his mam because it saves him the money to follow City away
I think that's Taffs mate. Leaving Reading's ground in a game pre Premier League, he staggered onto Tiger Travel Bus 2 wailing "Taff, Taff, are you on here mate" My vague recollection is that he collapsed into the front seats and was duly taken back to the KC but that may have been someone else! Since then has been known as "Taffs mate" but sadly something makes me think that "Taff" is no longer around.
There is a bloke near to me, he's okay - don't get me wrong, but tends to shout out: " Press'em " continually from 3pm to about 4.55pm
I've got nicknames for most of the people who sit near me. I've got a bloke called "fatlegs" cos he takes up that much space with his legs I can't move. He's got a daughter who I call "morticia". She wants to leave her seat several times during the match and when she comes back I'm usually so engrossed in the game I dont see her arrival and waiting for me to move to let her get by. She never fails to give me a fright when I suddenly see her stood there. Then theres "you bloody stupid prat" He remains silent for three out of four games and then quite unexpectedly stands up and shouts "you bloody stupid prat" when a pass goes astray or a shot goes wide or over the top. But then in front of me is "Mrs Thong". You can guess what she wears and she's fit. She manages to sit there and reveal her whaletail and most of her crack. I cant wait for the weather to get warmer. No wonder I've been in the same seat for years.
i actually don't mind anyone i'm sat near, which probably means i'm the annoying one. I do get pissed off with the people who come to bait the away fans rather than cheer their team. I don't mean after we've celebrated goals or chanting at them, i normally join in with that, but theres no need to swear aggressively at them if we win a throw in... ...Christ
Yeah early twenties. I'm mates with his older brother, Frankie. We saw Guzzler at Burnley. We were probably in a similar state to him then.
