What are the most annoying shouts from the crowd you've heard at a football match? Not a chant but an individual shouting something. Simple One of the most annoying for me is 'wake up!' There's a guy near me who does it every week! I also hate shouts of 'get on with it' or similar when a player has ONLY JUST placed the ball down for a set-piece. Another one is when a player is jockeying an opposition player on the ball. Then someone shouts 'tackle him!' They don't realise that if a player commits himself to a tackle, jumps or slides in there's a huge risk that the player on the ball will skip past them with ease. These are the sort of people who need to learn about football.
Agreed, I guess most people (Though I like to exclude myself from this) are guilty of abusing players when they wouldn't make it to half-time themselves in a football match! As for me, I was sat in front of a kid at the Wigan game who kept saying 'go on, score!' as if we weren't trying. And everytime we won a corner he would say 'Go on Bassong, get up there' as if he is Bassong's personal man-manager...
"Score a goal" always brings a smile to my face when I'm watching Ipswich...... I just wish the players would bloody well listen
Excuse me I want to get a cup of tea before the half time rush, excuse me I need to pee, excuse me it's 85 mins and I'm leaving to miss any last minute fun and moan for the next month I know they are not shouts but they make me wanna scream!
Love it when the crowd shouts 'HANDBALL' when it clearly isn't. I once expressed to my brother, when the ball had hardly lifted off the the ground, 'do the fans think the players arms reach to the ground?' We were playing Cardiff and my brother replied, 'they do, they're a bunch of sheep shaggers!' Still don't know whether he was talking about the Norfolk crowd or the Welsh team!
They're very frustrating! Even saw people going in before 40 minutes against Everton. Why? You paid to watch a match. I sometimes get food at half time and get back before the second half so what's the rush? What really really bugs me about that lot though are the ones who stop and watch right in front of you when something exciting happens.
On the topic of people leaving early at HT, are the snack bars actually open before half time or not? I've never left my seat whilst the ball's in play so I don't know. Are people actually just stood there waiting for 5 minutes? If not, why not just open the hatches as the whistle goes and allow people to enjoy the game more?!
People that shout "SWITCH IT!" when to switch the ball would take some sort of football super-being with a leg like a traction engine.

Shoot! When someone is on the half way line or people shouting 'Come on get forward come on hurry up!' When Wes or Snodgrass is on the half way line surrounded by about six players, save being impatient for the people dawdling at the bar or in the shops etc. Leaving early for me is a cardinal sin as a fan always stop till the final whistle, I used to travel back to Northampton from Carrow Road I stop over in Norwich these days, but being stuck in traffic for 30 minutes is a **** excuse, it doesn't wash with me especially at times when a two and a half hour drive drags to well over three.
I can't stand when they're is a choir of groans when we pass it back. Does my ****ing nut in, we still have the ball for **** sake!
It's been a while since I last went to Carrow Rd... When I was a regular a guy behind me used to shout, "Watch your hole." To this day I have no idea if this is a defensive term or he was simply warning one of our players to watch his arse.
Do you remember that fat twat who sat behind us at the Stoke game giving everyone a running commentary? That was a difficult game patience wise.
Agree. That frustrates me, they expect us to attack. Sometimes the best option is not to run or pass it forwards, but instead to play it back. The people who do all the things posted above tend to be the people who post on the pink 'un or are on Canary Call. They haven't got a clue, and as I said above, need to learn about football.
I often have a little lad, maybe 8ish, sit next to me. He often says things that are simply out of FIFA 13, very unrealistic, but have to say his dad is brilliant at educating him.
I must admit that I shout out "Shoot Bradley" or "Hit it Bradders" whenever the ball drops to Johnson anywhere near the penalty box as I have this prophecy that one day he'll get one of the buggers on target and damn near take the net off. All said in jest and wishful thinking tough ......
Sorry Carla, a little off topic here but regarding the most annoying sporting chant - how about a golfer (anyone) in America over 400 yards to go and there's always one that cries out "In the hole" - F*cking impossible you tw*t!!
