kipstryker Posted 29 October, 2011 Share Posted 29 October, 2011 Yes I love the passion and support of the northam - and the unswerving support and atmosphere they provide. Today, as they opened block 43, I thought it would be a change to take my nippers in there as a change to kingsland north or our preferred itchen 4 or 3/2/1 which stayed shut. When I say nippers they are 17 and 18 and I have been taking them since they were proper nippers. My first game game was 75, charlton at home. I've missed a handful of home games since then, and done many away days. In my younger days away from home I stood my ground and got a couple of right kickings. To stand in my own ground and have a bunch of my own - fellow saints - wave season tickets at me and call me a plastic fan. That hurt. That hurt more than any ****ings I ever took back in the day. I had a word with a couple of the lads - bit of banter they said. ******** - it was we are bigger, better fans than you. So would they prefer empty seats, away fans, or their own? Maybe some are occasional. Maybe some are at their first game ( hope you enjoyed it, please come again). So what. But you know it ****ed of my lads to whom I apologised for making a fuss. They have been home and away since as long as they can remember. They didnt understand. Why are saints fans slagging us off Dad?? Sorry, but to those that slagged us off - grow up, get real and grow some balls when someone calls you out over it. "WE, yes WE are Southampton" Despite all that - brilliant performance. So proud to be a mush and have my lads their to enjoy it with me. I thank-you all for allowing me to get that off my chest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dune Posted 29 October, 2011 Share Posted 29 October, 2011 I used to have a season ticket in block 41 about 5 years ago and it was decent then, but it's gone down hill as the number of stupid teenagers have increased.

I'm a season ticket holder near the back of Block 42 and I constantly argue with these so called uber-fans being they're ignorant idiots. They do start a lot of songs in fairness, however every other song is a reference to Pompey, which does get a little tedious. Please accept my apologies on behalf of Block 42.......we welcome you and your family back with open arms. One song you could start, while waving your match ticket in the air is "I paid more money than you, I paid more money than you".....you get the gist!

On the one hand you hear about the spazzers who shout Pork and then there's the gobby ones who think they are the bestest fans in the world. That's the sad thing, plenty aren't teenagers, but grown men in their 40s and 50s acting like bell ends. I cringe at the songs that lot at the back of block 42 come out with and their pathetic waving of season tickets and singing "plastic fans" songs. Its great that the Northam and Kingsland corner are all stood and fair play to the stewards these days, they don't even try to make us sit. But loads that go in there either struggle to even sing OWTS properly, the most popular song seems to be "Red and White Barmy Army" or they don't sing at all. Rubbish.

Actually though i would say the Kingsland corner are the core song starters now not the Northam. At the forest game they were singing "our fans are f***ing s*it" to block 42 as they were so quiet..lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Duckhunter Posted 29 October, 2011 Share Posted 29 October, 2011 It's one of the reasons I'm happy at the Chapel. What do these idiots want us to do, save our ticket stubs and bring them as proof of our support over the years. I've got underpants older than some of our "bestest fans". Whether you go every week, or go when you can or when you can afford, or rarely go at all, you're still a Saints fan. My old man followed us in 3rd Division South, but rarely goes now as he's nearing his 80's,but he's still as passionate as the "yoof". They should grow up, or **** off.

Badvoc Posted 29 October, 2011 Share Posted 29 October, 2011 As much as I hate to say it, this is the difference between us and the scum. When, on the rare occasions they got a gate bigger than us in the past, they waved it under our noses as proof of their (laughable) sleeping giant tag. On the reverse, as we appear to be coming out of the doldrums and get bigger attendances some of our lot act act like total village idiots by *****ing and moaning at our own numbers-total bunch of small town f**ktards.

For me it's never been about whether you've got a season ticket, whether you manage to go regularly or not, or whether you even live in the City. If you support the Saints in whatever guise then you're a friend of mine. Like you I have a father who will be making his annual pilgrimage on Tuesday to celebrate his 75th birthday as he struggles nowadays to go regularly (once again Posh, and he reminds me we thrashed them last season). Someone who introduced me to Saints 37 years ago and who went through thick and thin through the 50's - 90s. If anyone had the audacity to wave their season ticket at him then I would take pleasure in inserting it one of their orifaces. Cringetastic behaviour.

Ziggy Stardust Posted 30 October, 2011 Share Posted 30 October, 2011 Sorry to hijack this thread but not grown up enough to start one of my own. What would you have done yesterday? Picture the scene. Kingsland Block 29. Me my husband and son sitting surrounded by quite a few elderly couples apart from empty seats directly behind us (actually very touching to see at least 3 couples who must have been in their 70s or 80s out enjoying the match together - hope we'll be like that!) Anyway I digress. Just after KO about 6 blokes come and sit behind us and start shouting BLUE ARMY (that was just a couple of times) and Come on Boro and general anti Saints chants. Just before half time, one said to another "sh!t, we're 3-0 down!". When I heard the half time score, it became clear they were Portsmouth supporters. They went to the bar before the halftime whistle and returned late after 2nd half began and continued to be objectionable. My 26 year old son turned around and said to them that he could appreciate why they wanted to come to our stadium to watch some decent football but if they chose to sit in the home supporters stand, then would they show a bit of respect and shut up or he'd get a steward to chuck 'em out. It was rather comical as one replied in a kinda sulky teenage way (they must have all been in their 30s/40s " I'm allowed to support who I want" to which my son said yes of course you are - but not here. Now shut up. Scary moment - but it worked. Would you have had them ejected? We didn't want to spoil the match for everyone around us and that would have been really unpleasant.
