4 pages before fat sam is mentioned?

i would like to see stoke go down, but can someone tell me what the problem with their fans is? i don't doubt it, I just haven't been to those games. I am guessing its alot of 'sign on' songs and foam hands but would like clarification.

I once sat in the home end in st james park and was still wasted from the night before. after riises early rocket of a goal i accidentaly jumped up and shouted 'yaaaeeerrssgedfuckinder'etc only to be threatened with being thrown down the stairs by their fans either side of me (one of whom wasnot even geordie) i made it to the end after having to promise to be quiet and trying to explain i couldnt get a ticket in the away end...people turning round, hate filled faces all around me..., calmly walking out as murphy made it 2-0 with minutes to spare. since then i always hated them. i used to think they were similar to us before that. newcastle fans have sat with the home fans a anfield near me and there were no problems, people shook hands after the game (1-0 owen) small time cunts they are, and they are falling apart and it pleases me no end.

and stoke.

This is something that absolutely perplexes me, whilst I'm sure a lot of opposition supporters find our singing of You'll Never Walk Alone toward the end of a match irritating, corrupting it with this is odd. The ability of anyone on JSA (£71 per week) to actually buy a football ticket at a premier league game (on average £35 to £44) is obviously fairly unlikely. Added to this fans who sing this are often from areas that suffer from social deprivation as well. I wonder if those in the crowd who aim this at us feel ok with it if they have friends and family members out of work?

 

Or perhaps this is just part of the creeping gentrification of the sport? ticket prices going up, older more middle class fans attending the games, lack of cohesion between the clubs and the communities they used to represent.

 

I remember sitting in a pub in Frankfurt with some Chelsea fan (who just so happened to be a revoltingly rich Oxford graduate) who I'd met at the hostel who regaled me with how he loved to sing this little ditty, I enquired as to whether he did this whilst waving his plastic flag in the seat he's occupied since 2003. This produced a smattering of invective which was finally curtailed when I asked him who the clubs leading scorer was? Something he was unable to produce an answer for, the cunt (it's Bobby Tambling). Unfortunately this is exactly the sort of prick that modern football laps up.
