madras Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 being the first in your area of the ground to realise the ball is going in, the ball may still be 20yds from the goal. I'm very lucky in that both the seats i've sat in provide this sort of view. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistle17 Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 When you are singing so loud and proud after a goal that you think the roof is going to come off, when its the loudest experience of your life. Also, when your team is in dire need of a goal and you force the opposition keeper into a save that results in a corner- the collective 'fucking cmoon'/roar that follows is incredible. A lot of my other favourites have been mentioned- seeing a packed out away end go fucking nuts is right up there! In terms of playing football, the tightening of your boot laces to the perfect tightness. When you strike a ball so sweetly. That smell of freshly cut grass going to play on a summers evening. The butterflies you get in your stomach just as your about to kick off. Playing your way out of trouble and giving a nice simple pass. I could go on forever! God, I love football Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistle17 Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Another- when things are going brilliant for the club (i.e now for us) and you know that even if tomorrow or the rest of the week is shit, you've still got that to fall back on and make you proud and happy.

madras Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Tiote still hearing "SHOOT" a year later. Getting a bit annoying now, especially as he usually does go for it no problem with him doing that as they've been pretty good shots. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 When poor/'poor' players do well. The night Best got the hattrick vs West Ham Sibierski. Perchinho. This is a good one because I think we all initially reacted like "What the fuck?!" when Willo started fucking around with the stepovers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Flash Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 The period just after full time when roads become paths. The cheering at the end when it's announced sunderland have lost again. The one kid who falls over when taking a penalty at half time. Claiming offside when you couldn't possibly know from your vantage point. "MAN ON!!" Mike from newcastle-online. Saying "thanks" for no real reason to the people who sit behind the turnstile machine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 all the things that come together to make up match days at SJP, The walk past Greggs on Percy St, seeing the same old boy selling programmes who's been there about 15 years if not longer The beef outside Barker and Stonehouse on her guitar The lads collecting for a local Sunday team The aroma of greasy burgers. You always think you'd fancy one but then remember you'd rather not die The cobbled street out the back of the East Stand. Regularly done my ankle down there, especially in a crowd. The little lad or lass you'll see possibly going for their first time, clad in black and white, clutching their parents hand with a starry-eyed gaze. The buzz in the concourse as people discuss teams/other results People that greet each other at their seats like long-time mates, but more than likely don't have anything to do with one another outside SJP. etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 the pre match pub. we never organise anything, no calls or texts of what time we out or where, we just all turn up. the current pub has been about a decade now and since that first change (had previously been the forth) all of us just know.

Guest palnese Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Talking about football with Geordies in Newcastle. It's really is something else. Never experienced anything like it when I've been abroad. People are so genuine, friendly and passionate about their local club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 When your club is in the trenches late in a match and your players are willing eachother on yelling "come on!" or "Lets go!" go to eachother.

Kanji Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 For neutral matches, small clubs scoring the first at home versus larger clubs - the absolute madness that ensues. SJP at home when we score any fucking goal, it sounds class as hell on TV over here in the USA. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJP at home when we score any f***ing goal, it sounds class as hell on TV over here in the USA. just saying the other week, i'd quite like to sit with the away fans so i could hear what a goal sounds like at SJP from the away fans perspective.
