Matchday pet-hates...

[StuRomseySaint]

- Annoying people slapping the back boards of the Northam out of sync and speeding up every chant.

 

- 12 year olds singing " We paid for your haaaaaaaaaaaaaaats, what a waste of council tax, we paid for your haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaats " to the OB - When did you pay council tax?!?!!?

 

- Singing 'you're just a small town in Oxford/whoever the oppositions rivals are' - It doesn't make any sense you c*nts!!!

 

- Fully grown men with replica shirts over their jumper with the name of a teenage boy on the back.

 

- Singing 'Pay up P*mpey'

 

I will add more as I think of them...

[saint_stevo]

-Singing 'Southerners, Southerners, Southerners' to Yeovil.

 

-Women and children

 

-Paul Wotton

 

-The queue for Ladbrokes

[Hatch]

Leaving early to get home in time to watch celebs on ice/celebs cooking/celebs eating/celebs dancing/celebs wakning pigs/celebs sleeping / celebs clowning etc.

[doddisalegend]

oh dear! Have you reached your mid thirties ? That was about the time I became ****ed of with everything and anything:p

[Colinjb]

- Unwatched Children, even in the family stand. A football match is no place for youngsters to run riot, they need to be supervised and looked after.

 

- The dreadful, dreadful beer. Enough said.

 

- The pre-match 'entertainment.' Cringeworthy boll*cks.

 

- All the anti-skates songs. We are Southampton for gods sake, they are nothing but an inconvenience and don't deserve validation by us crowing about them.

 

- Screaming Children, shut the f*ck up you little toe rags, you should be seen but not heard.

 

- Singing 'You dirty northern bast*rds' to Midland teams. It's just not funny.

 

- Crap referees/officials etc.

 

- Jermaine Beckford, lightweight, over-rated and in for a massive shock when he moves to a club higher up the leagues then Leeds.

[dune]

fans that want to sit down at away games - the front rows are where you belong so sit there and shut up.

 

music after goals = norwich etc, how ****.

 

grounds that don't sell beer.

 

grounds like colchesters - swamps are good and should be left, if you were a great crested newt you'd be pretty ****ed off too.

 

mk dons

 

mk dons fans

 

going to an away game and not being mid row or down wind of a steward - smoking is not big or clever though it has to be said.

 

idiots who buy food from the beer stand and/or decide to mix their drinks order. if theres 5 of you or 10 of you or any number of you then you all drink lager and make it quick. this applies at pubs too, a pack of ****ing peanuts is a snack not a meal, you don't need them, they don't fill you up, they are just annoying little ****ers that delay me being served.

 

i could go on, but the postman has just come.....

[Spudders]

People behind you shouting so hard that their spit keeps landing on your bald head.

 

Having a bald head.

[Kingsland Red]

The ever increasing number of 'covert' away fans in the Kingsland, the home of partisan comment.

 

I dont want to sit next to Swindon, Leeds etc fans Mr Luker.

[dune]

the expert analyser that loves to share his opinions during play. not mates, but random strangers who think they are providing a service

[dune]

this one isn't a pet hate, just an observation thats a bit weird. whys there always an old man near you at a game that ticks off the boxes on his programme. i think it's NickG.

[Dog]

The five *****s stood behind me, my wife, and my two young children against Leeds, constantly shouting '****, ****, *****, ******, arsehole, bastard' every other word. I just wish my children were not there. I was ashamed and I will not be taking them again for a few years.

Do you sit in the Family stand?

[dune]

those that travel on the travel club and are not either ancient or young. If you're aged between 18 and 50 and use the travel club you have issues that you need to face up to.

[BarnetSaint]

Not having enough bar staff on at the King Alfred.

And why don't they open the upstairs bar?

 

Agree about the slow version of OWTHS getting hijacked by the rear wall bangers.

 

Having music and some mug bellowing into his microphone just before K.O

 

Please Mr MC-STFU and let the crowd dictate the atmosphere.

Plus one, who ever came up with that Adam, Papa & Rickie thing wants shooting makes me cringe every time he spouts it.

[Paul Chuckle]

Our own fans making gestures at other SFC fans who sing a song slightly out of time or who don't sing a song they agree with.

 

seen this happen a few times recently. Lets get behind the team and not try and belittle our own fans by thinking your 'superior' to them :/

This is the single MOST annoying thing at SMS!

 

GET TCWT(M) M=mic to STFU and save me from being hoarse before we kick a ball due to trying to sing above the god awful din that the music and him creates before kick off!!

[Arizona]

- Anti Pompey songs. All of them. Makes us look sad and obsessed, plus we seem to singing them every five minutes.

 

- Signing too quickly. Not just OWTS, all of them accelerate to the point of beind indecipherable.

 

- Having segregation of about 3 blocks either side of the away fans. Makes for a pretty soulless banter with the away fans.

 

- Not being able to buy anything at half time without missing either the end of the first half or start of the second.

 

- Being told to sit down by stewards.

 

- Crap HT entertainment.

[LaptopSaint]

Losing.

 

To Swindon. Or Tranmere. Or Brighton. Or Colchester. Or or or... Ahh f*ck it.

[OfnPanad]

- Singing 'You dirty northern bast*rds' to Midland teams. It's just not funny.

 

Awww...I agree with pretty much everything else but this and the "You fat b*stard" shout at the opposition 'keeper are a bit of a laugh - yes it's a cheap laugh but it does raise a smile from my missus and 15 yr old daughter every time!

 

I also admit I found it funny when Torquay sang it to us in the JPT match

 

[JB]

Women at football asking loudly why there is 19 minutes of extra time being announced mid way through the first half.

 

Anyone talking at football.

[dune]

Something we don't do which i think we should do is when the oppositions keeper comes to his goal (and it's in front of us) - this being either at the start of the game or after h/t (pretty obvious this bit but some on here are not the brightest) we all clap him like the good family club that we are. They dont always respond, butoften they do and clap back - whereupon you call him a ******. Great childish fun for all the family.

[eelpie]

Other oldies (and others) - who sit impassively throughout matches.

 

The vile beer and the long queues for it

 

Ciggie smoke in the loos

 

Parking 25 mins from the stadium

 

 

Good to see kids with parents (but I hate short-sited people complaining about them on this site)

[Didcot Saint]

That god awful, cringeworthy and quite frankly embarrassing Pitch announcer. The terrible OWTS they play just before the teams come ouy. GET RID he is a total t..t.

[thesaint sfc]

Funny, I can remember this happening a lot more in the Archers back in the Dell days but you're right - never seems to happen these days

[thesaint sfc]

Oh, and standing next to someone who sounds really weird when they shout. I stood next to someone at the Leeds game who was about 30 but when he shouted he sounded like a 12 year old being kicked in the ********. Very annoying.

 

Or someone getting the players name wrong for the entire game. Hasn't happened for a while but I remember sitting next to someone who thought that Blackstock was Kenwyne Jones. Very annoying. Oh and when people totally lay into our players for the entire game, even when they've scored twice and are having a brilliant game. Mostly used to get that against Ricardo Fuller. He must have thought our fans were right c*nts.

[saint_stevo]

Getting asked 'who was that that scored then mate' after we score.

 

er, watch the bloody game

[northam soul]

Surely everyone is northern to us and if there not then who cares.

[forever a red and white]

some **** who thought it was comical to call papa waigo, papa smurf everytime he gets the ball

 

the racist **** keep hearing in the northam

 

people who have an obsession to turn to anyone in ear shot just so to give their opinon, if not sat next to them.

 

our players always moaning at the ref

[Dog]

Do you sit in the Family stand?

 

No, I was in the Kingsland, as originally I wasn't taking the family. I can live with swearing, but not constant foul mouthed abuse screamed every 20 seconds infront of small children. The ****s needed a good ***** slap.

[dune]

I ask this on a regular basis lol.

[krissyboy31]

- Signing too quickly. Not just OWTS, all of them accelerate to the point of beind indecipherable.

 

I agree with this after having to sit in the family section v Leeds (because Kingsland North was sold out). Could hear the Leeds fans loud and clear but the Northam was just a load of background noise with a load of super-fast clapping. In fact, from down there our vocal support sounded embarrassing.

[S-Clarke]

Plus one, who ever came up with that Adam, Papa & Rickie thing wants shooting makes me cringe every time he spouts it.

 

+1!!!!

 

please...make that stop. Only one more game left for it i suppose. I believe that was a request from Nicola and co though!

 

He's a decent bloke, but i hope Nicola is already planning on replacing Stuart dennis for next season.

[Our Claus]

People who think that their way of watching football is the only way.

[Third Division South Days]

PA system which is crap

 

Pointless performance of teams shaking hands before match

 

Pointless performance of the team hug

 

Would be good to know who was on the subs bench when the team is announced before ko.

 

The time wasting routine every ref goes through on free kicks.

[Appy]

-People who stand on the stairs throughout the whole game in block 42. You have a seat so ****ing stand by it.

 

- People thinking that it is only teenagers or kids who bang the back boards. The main culprit near me looks to be in his fourties.

 

- The `small town in Portsmouth/Swansea/Oxford/Villa` chant.

[Rasiak-9-]

I have many pet hates, but one that crowns them all is that ****ing faggot of a cheerleader on the pitch with the mic before the game.

[saint_stevo]

-Sitting next to a bloke called Stu who has bad WKD breath

[Give it to Ron]

Whenever an away substitute is named...."Whoooooo?" thats because your an ignorant **** !

People that arrive 10 minutes late....leave 10 minutes before half time.....get back q10 mintues after half time....leave 10 minutes before the end and stand in the way watching as they go. Either get an intravenous drip of beer or get a colostomy bag.

 

Middle aged wnkers who sit in block 34 making hand gestures at the away fans....brave ! Totally embarassing!

[dune]

we nicked this from birmingham

[Block 5]

You're a parent?

 

 

 

My pet hate......

 

Pet hate threads.

[ladysaint]

Whenever we sing "give us a wave (insert name)" I really really hate this.

[Dog]

Yes, a good one.

[Appy]

The amount of time it takes to get out of the Northam at the end of matches.

[Ash]

Anyone who isn't me or my dad.

[Dog]

The lack of toilet rolls lobbed at the goal these days. I miss those days.

[Baj]

People who ****ing moan about match day experiences because they dont get that 20,000 people may include a few that arent exactly like yourself, you moaning ****s.

[dune]

what about rattles? bring back or leave confined to history? Can't comment because they're before my time so this question is aimed at our senior contingent.
