Guest Phil K Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Who cares? One game, rest of the attendances have been outstanding. Absolutely right. But you know how some want to wear sackcloth and ashes to please outsiders ! I for one dont care, i wont give Ashley a penny over the 3 year ticket i got 18 months ago and regardless of the match will not be there at home. I will continue to try for away cup games(as long as that turdhole KC Stadium isnt one again) when i can though Most of us have no problem with that !

madras Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 I just wonder if those who don't care about the FA Cup , turned up to a semi final at wembley or a final if we got there. ( Not going to happen , but I'm sure there views would change ). i doubt they would. it's just like saying if we were 1 point ahead going into the last game of the season against the team in second place would people be more b othered about that or an FA CUP SEMI FINAL ? That is the WORST comparison I have quite possibly ever heard , if anyone had a brain they would go to both surely? i see it as a pretty good comparisson as in both occasions it's one game away from the prize. reaching the culmination of the comp etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Icke - Son of God Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Bad crowd but the apathy is reflected across the country. Until you reach the quarters then all sides will struggle to get anywhere near capacity. Unfortunately the FA Cup just isn't that much of a big deal anymore, especially for clubs such as ourselves where it's an unwelcome distraction from getting back to the top flight. I didn't go, I couldn't be arsed. Considering I put a few hundred pounds into the club in the form of a season ticket I don't think missing a fairly pointless FA Cup game that I found very hard to care about is a cardinal sin.

MW Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Its the away support that determine how good support is anyway imo. For that, not many can touch us. Us, mackems and man utd are the best away fans imo, followed by liverpool and maybe spurs. Couldn't make it last night anyway as I'm in London until tomorrow and find it ridiculous people think those who went last night would deserve a cup final or any other ticket more than a ST holder with loads of loyalty points. Get to all games I can n often have to throw away on home games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
huss9 Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 how many plymouth fans made it up here last night? they're the ones that need congratulating esp as the weather down there is much worse than here at present. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heron Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 About 250, and made plenty noise too. Was very impressed and felt slightly, just very-very slightly sorry for them since their side put up no battle what-so-ever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 No, they were near the Leazes-Milburn corner, under the TV studio. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heron Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Get your tits out for the lads has been sung for years, if it was to young lasses it's a bit sick/inappropriate like but if you didn't know who it was sung to I personally don't think you can complain too much.

Guest toonlass Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 I remember the lads singing it to a young (20ish) lass kitted out in a Sheffield United blazer and tie at Brammell lane a couple of years ago, and she certainly didn't seem to take offence at it. She was laughing at our lads. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heron Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Sexism is kind of part of football, I suppose racism was once, and it was rightfully driven out and maybe sexism should too, but to be fair if women's football was at a better level more women would probably go to watch that instead and less sexism would occur anyway. How about that for a sexist view. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jill Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 I used to watch some US womens football. It infuriated me, I shouted at the TV too much. I randomly selected a team to support, the Atlanta Beat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kane2005 Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Considering we were only ever on top of the game for 5/10 minutes before half time , I thought that atmosphere last night was by far the best we have had this season. The leazes corner , which now consists of 8 blocks standing , was jumping !! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bealios Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Aye, one of the better atmosphere's this season, especially when we weren't the better team. East Stand is getting worse though. It used to be just quiet, now it is probably the most critical side of the ground. I swear that there are more boos and attacks on our own players from that stand than anywhere else in the ground. I wonder if its because its where a lot of the older fans now sit, and they're just pissed off after so many years of failure? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me and my mate were wondering whether they poked the chaps in the East Stand with a stick last night, they actually made a sort of grumbling noise at one point. I didn't even realise they were awake tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kane2005 Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 After all of the years were the people in the Gallowgate said they could not hear the supporters in Level 7 singing , it seems as if they done a pretty good job of joining in last night , as did the Level 7 lot when the Gallowgate began. BTW TO ALL SCOREBOARDERS !! SING MORE PLEASE , IT DOES SOUND GREAT FROM WERE WE ARE !! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
