In with the home fans

Yeah but they say stuff like mon-eh, and eat christmas turk-eh. That said, I reckon bits of the Leeds/West Yorks accent is slowly making its way downwards into South Yorks.

At the risk of going ever more off topic, seem to remember Arctic Monkeys Mardy Bum has 'but it's rate/rayt hard to remember on a day like to day' in the lyrics.

Back on topic, I've never encountered that many issues in home ends so long as you're not acting up. I cocked up a few years ago when we couldn't get away tickets for Pride Park, said to my dad 'let's sit as close to the Wolves fans as possible', completely forgetting there'd be a line of stewards. Thankfully it's probably my second most visited ground and I'd seen a lot of the previous Derby/Wolves games so just talked to them about that.

Seem to recall Leicester away ~2006, Wolves needed the points to get into the play offs. Three lads in their teens/20s in front of us, minding their own business, not wearing colours or owt, but when once spoke, was obviously a yam yam. Some Leicester lass had a bee in her bonnet about it, and was shouting at any steward she could find 'they're Wolves fans, they're Wolves fans' trying to get them thrown out :rolleyes:

Good call with the Arctic Monkey lyrics! I live in Leeds and work in Kirklees and even in those ten miles there's a few differences. Not quite rayt levels, mind.
 
Forest away on the night when we beat them 3-0 and Luton when we won 5-0. Both times were a bit tasty with a few blows being exchanged but we lived to fight another battle
 
Three of us were in with the Mags for our play-off at SJP, sussed during the pitch invasion so just started singing :lol:
Me and another ladwere in with them whatever the stand is opposite the tunnel. The mags around us were disgusted at the pitch invasion
1979 Rowell hatrick game in paddock main stand with about 5 other safc from Blyth, few punches and kicks aimed, only 19 at the time. Great day though.
That was a magnificent day

Bury away in 1998. Sat on my hands until Philips 3rd went in then legged it from the Bury sideline stand into our fans behind the goal. Couldn't phyically stop myself from jumping on to pitch and jigged across the pitch in absoulte ecstasy. I must have looked a right sight :lol:. Once behind the goal, the top coppper pointed me out and was determined I'd be lifted. Whipped my sweatshirtoff and my red and white stripes made it impossible for them to find me - camoflage 😉. Then once the final whistle went, pushed the stewards out of the way and on to the pitch for a mass party.

Happy days. I'm now a boring, balding Dad of three :rolleyes:.
 
Wimbledon, Wolves and Leeds to name 3.
Last 2 could have been a problem.

Leeds with my Leeds mate and couldn’t help myself when Paynter smashed in a beauty, I got up.
Someone behind shouts, “Sit down you carrot crunching bastard.” (Always knew Leeds fans know their stuff). Ken Bates looked across 😂
My Leeds Mate and myself still laugh about that today.
 
(Always knew Dirty Leeds fans know fuck all).
Tidied. And edited for brevity.

SoT, like most on here I think you’re a canny lad and normally know your stuff. I wish you and yours nothing but the best, unless you’re playing us.

However you’re on a slippery slope with this shit post

Even tho’ two of my good mates are life-long them. Home & away, season tickets, saw them win the league etc.
However they’re still c*nts when it comes to football.
Also got a scar above me eye that I could fit my fingertip in past the nail, when it happened, off one of them. Still mates, still c*nts when it comes to football.

I was in there with my Dad. At end of the game there was only about 30% of the crowd in and I’m sure most were trying not to smile and celebrate.
Didn’t see any trouble but we were sussed by the huge mag behind but he was no bother and said the better team had won when he left.

Not decent fans and can definitely agree to that.
My reference comment was more about them referring to myself as a carrot cruncher. Must have been my straw hat that gave it away.

Leeds have form for attacking innocent fans.

Been in with mags a couple of times very difficult in seats when gabbiaddini scored had to be escorted out around pitch other time in gallowgate on new years day we got hammered that day so didn't get chance to celebrate

Only ground I've ever been to, where at 2:55pm on a Saturday, people were walking away from the ground looking for a fight.
 
Done it once a few years ago against Bradford. Never again. Was horrible.

Our first season down in League One. We won after having a player sent off. McLaughlin saved a pen.

I think they ended up having at least one sent off too.
 
So anyone else doing it Monday? I’ve done the Gallowgate when we drew 1-1 years back so thinking this should be ok.
I'm there in South Stand, which is on side of pitch near the away end. I'm desperate to go, but hate having to stay quiet. I'll be busting a blood vessel if we score trying to sit silently. Equally, I'm gonna stick out like a sore thumb if they score and I'm not going wild!!

Remember that. Right hand side from the away end. Remember a tall ginger lad being thrown out. He had previously had a go at me and my mates earlier in the day.
 
I do it regularly as I live in Oxfordshire so cant get away tickets and home tickets at places like wycombe oxford Cheltenham are easy to buy.
This season v oxford I sat with my kids right next to the Sunderland fans - not a good idea with oxford fans screaming next to me at another safc fan who celebrated our first goal.
