Arizona Posted 6 November, 2009 Posted 6 November, 2009 Absolute quality. Which side were you on? Dry for me.
RonManager Posted 6 November, 2009 Posted 6 November, 2009 We're the wet side, we're the wet side, we're the wet side over 'ere. I missed their 1st goal as my glasses were soaked!
SB Posted 6 November, 2009 Posted 6 November, 2009 Dry side over here.. 'cherio,cherio....you fat basterd'
Sam Posted 6 November, 2009 Posted 6 November, 2009 Definately wet. Know of any ex Saints managers whose mother is a whore?
the boy from saints Posted 6 November, 2009 Posted 6 November, 2009 Ha ha! Could hear the song on the internet feed, but couldn't quite work out the words!
SaintSarah Posted 6 November, 2009 Posted 6 November, 2009 Wet side, but under cover in the corporate snack bar!! The girls were moaning that they couldnt see the match anymore.
hypochondriac Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 Wet side right by the steps! Was a laugh, especially when the bloke behind me kept telling the steward to get off the yellow bit of the steps "Off the yellow 51!"
hypochondriac Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 Definately wet. Know of any ex Saints managers whose mother is a whore? I enjoyed the whore chant. Also liked "we only win 3-1"
RonManager Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 Definately wet. Know of any ex Saints managers whose mother is a whore? Full marks to the sharply-dressed chap with the short blond hair who kept that song going pretty much for the full 90 minutes! If you post on here, I doff my cap to you Sir.
Whitey Grandad Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 I was dry side centre, but far enough forward to be getting slightly wet. Worst view of any seat I've ever had, including Highbury. Quality chant though.
RonManager Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 Strange ground, a cross between a Rugby stadium, a Football stadium and The Bath & West Showground! Great to see so much terracing, though. I got there early to park close to the ground and all the gates were open so I had a good nose round the ground. Good pasty and decent coffee as well.
Tractor_Saint Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 Wasn't told my tickets were 'restricted view' but I think that may have been the same for a lot of people in the front few rows ! Loved the 'We're going to Wembley' song at the end!!
tonibell Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 Dry side over here.. Row B a little bit WET when the wind blow the rain in 'cherio,cherio....you fat basterd' Good game and good fun
Tractor_Saint Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 Dry side over here.. Row B a little bit WET when the wind blow the rain in Ah ha ! Same restricted view as us then on Row B?
Saint Fen Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 I was dry side but in row A where there was a massive drip from the roof, my Dad ended up in standing in the aisle, although not blocking any wedding!
Sam Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 Fess up, who were the 3 chaps fighting over Connollys shirt? Got a little ungentlemanly I thought - the coppers had to be called over!
Northam Girls Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 We're the wet side, we're the wet side, we're the wet side over 'ere. I missed their 1st goal as my glasses were soaked! Didn't miss goal but know what you means about glasses - wet side for us - need windscreen wipers next time. Cheers to lad who's flag I used to dry them though :-)
JustMike Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 wet side, very wet. oh and smelly bloke side, he really did need to go have a clear out!! Which of the 3 guys got the shirt in the end? TBF the guy next to me actually caught it and then the other 2 bundled in
trousers Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 Fess up, who were the 3 chaps fighting over Connollys shirt? Got a little ungentlemanly I thought - the coppers had to be called over! It's not as if it would have fitted them either...unless they wanted it fir their kids...? ;-)
oxfordshire_saint Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 Was on the wet side, couldn't decide whether to watch through my soaked glasses or squint without them, ended up doing a combination of both!!! I had to laugh when the yoof down the front were taunting the steward in the dodgy hat with "What the f'in hell is that?"
Lets B Avenue Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 Wet side at the back. Ditto. In front of the tea bar. Thanks to Hector for putting salt in my coffee instead of sugar. :mad: Told the others in my car that it was going to rain during the game and they gave me stick for buying a new coat in the morning. At h-t they were asking if I was going to take it back for a refund. He who laughs last etc. etc.
landford.saint Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 Dry side...... Row G slightly to left of centre.... Still had post and downpipe restricting view... Good night all the same. Why when it so obvious we start scoring only when we play on the floor passing football, do we spend first half lobbing in long balls and putting high ball over?
West End Saint Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 Dry side all the way just to the left of the goal at the back funny chants great atmosphere 2nd half fair play to the wet side you tight b@stards £2.50 for a roof £2.50 for a roof. la la la la la david connoly

krissyboy31 Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 wet side corner flag next to a young couple kissing & cuddling all first half . Let's be honest, it was probably more interesting than the footy 1st half.
Andy_Porter Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 I was in the terrace as well. Seemed like a better atmosphere in the sitting bit.

georgeismyname Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 Add me to the wet side. Was stupid with the whole Connolly shirt thing, what he should've done was run up and give it to me in my hand when I was stood in the front row to save all the trouble!!! Great night out and great performance, shame about the late kerfuffle once it started raining but we're in the hat for next round
LostBoys Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 I was on the dry side - great night - refused entry by all the empty pubs on the main road - no bar at the away end - three great goals - dry side and wet side chanting and then cheerio you fat barsteward when he gave us a V sign - an hour to get to the M32 for no reason - must do it again for the league game. dry side wimp
imported_Saint_G Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 Dry Side for me, Row D, rubbish veiw, spent the first half try to duck so that i could see under the cross bar, second half spent most of it looking at a drainpipe. Did see the goals though. Ricky was unlucky with that free kick, although he didn't particularly look up for it all game. The Lino's were shocking as per usual. There was one incident in the 2nd half where their 'keeper made a fine diving save to tip it round the post and the lino gave a bloody goal kick! rubbish, good night out and good crowd as per.
krissyboy31 Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 There was one incident in the 2nd half where their 'keeper made a fine diving save to tip it round the post and the lino gave a bloody goal kick! rubbish. I think the Ref gave a foul or offside or something but it was hard to follow with Hungarian Commentary.
Arizona Posted 7 November, 2009 Author Posted 7 November, 2009 I tried to swap my ticket for a wet side before the match, but wasn't allowed. In fairness, it was pretty packed in there. With my cold I'd probably have caught pneumonia too. I think the Ref gave a foul or offside or something but it was hard to follow with Hungarian Commentary. I'm pretty sure the lino gave it o/s
Tractor_Saint Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 I'm pretty sure the lino gave it o/s Yup, that one was offside. The unforgivable one was when the ball went out for a Saints corner and both linesman and referee looked at each other then the referee made the decision - throw in to Rovers. THROW IN FFS? WHAT?? The ball went out between the goal post and the corner flag - how's that a throw in ???
edprice1984 Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 Wet side...brilliant banter especially comments about the refs arm!
THINWHITEDUKE Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 Wet side...brilliant banter especially comments about the refs arm! wet side for me too we're on the wet side, we're on the wet side over here. quality chants and banter, especially the lads with the constant shout of 'she's a whore' and 'the referees mother is a whore' 'what is she?' 'she's a whore'
shurlock Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 wet side for me too we're on the wet side, we're on the wet side over here. quality chants and banter, especially the lads with the constant shout of 'she's a whore' and 'the referees mother is a whore' 'what is she?' 'she's a whore' From where I was, i didn't hear the rest of the chant "the saviour marcus liebherr went to rome to see the pope" catching on. shame...
Bourno Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 Dry Side for me, Row D, rubbish veiw, spent the first half try to duck so that i could see under the cross bar, second half spent most of it looking at a drainpipe. Did see the goals though. Ricky was unlucky with that free kick, although he didn't particularly look up for it all game. The Lino's were shocking as per usual. There was one incident in the 2nd half where their 'keeper made a fine diving save to tip it round the post and the lino gave a bloody goal kick! rubbish, good night out and good crowd as per. Dry side for me and my nipper, also row D behind the goal, rubbish view as the we had to watch most of the game through the net. I thought that they scord a goal that Kelvin scooped out from the top corner. Some funny songs but not a great atmosphere - too many not singing.
m735 Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 Dry side for me, although we were in row A, and got drowned when it rained, and it was a rubbish view. Top night tho
The9 Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 Dry Side, though as I was in Row A directly below a hole in the guttering (just to one side of the goal on the far away from the wet side) I got absolutely soaked anyway. I missed the first Rovers goal as I had my 2004 vintage Saints sleeping bag style coat pulled over my head, and I also have a few videos which go from decent quality to utterly unfathomably steamed up towards the end. Was a brilliant laugh though, I was singing "wet side" from the front of the stand.
Whitey Grandad Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 wet side corner flag next to a young couple kissing & cuddling all first half . Were they the couple that left a few minutes before the end? They looked like they were going off early for something more important.
BGF Posted 7 November, 2009 Posted 7 November, 2009 Missed the goal as I was pulling my jacket over my head!! Couldn't see the other end because of the rain.
