The Moment you knew the Northam wasn't for you anymore

[The9]

Northam Stand, heartbeat of the club, always sells out fast and gets behind the team. However, I think the commonly held view here is despite a few of the originals that have been there since Chelsea at home first game dotted about, it is generally full of:

 

• Mouthy teenagers wearing McKenzie tracksuits and checked, Nike baseball caps pointing upwards
  
• Clowns that spend the whole game facing a piece of rather dirty plastic sheeting in the back row and banging the c*** out of it as fast as they can
  
• Strange lads that take their birds with them in some pathetic attempt to show them how cool they are
  
• Grown men wearing jumpers with a replica football shirt squeezed over the top of it (applicable to every area of the ground tbf)
   
  

 

And always has been.

 

The place to be is further forward in the Northam, all of the atmosphere, with all of the weirdos 15 rows behind you.

That too, head cases.

We thought it was fun at the time.

Being 50 next birthday and still enjoying football for its entertainment, enjoying the company of friends and yes my kids, i'll still be in the Northam next season, still standing and still singing.

 

each to there own, no one is a 'superfan' we're all fans of a superclub, we are southampton so sit or stand where you want!

got tickets there a few times in our first stint in the championship, but I just can't stand the standing

 

I'm all for standing areas, but I paid for a seat.

 

and the gobby morons who spend more time shouting at the away contingent than watching the game tip the balance

Can't be arsed to stand up the whole match. There you go, I said it.

Northam is the home of wannabe cool bell ends tbf, look at them, just look over at the swaying mass of mong that is our heartbeat apparantly
