The thieving scum that call themself saints fans!!

[aintforever]

boo hoo

[exit2]

I seem to remember a thread on one of the old boards when everyone was boasting about mementoes the stole from the Dell, a lot of posters were quite proud of the fact that they had their seat.

 

 

Slightly different!

[StuRomseySaint]

To be fair, I nicked loads from The Dell, even went back there with a ladder and toolbox in the evening to nick even more, then nicked even more at the 'Last Dinner at The Dell'

 

I would have happily taken something today if I was there, although I would probably taken it round to reception for them to look after until Monday.

[prideofthesouth]

Surprise, surprise... Saints fans vandalising, fighting and now *****ing with eachother. Utter ******s, the majority of you, and you've got exactly what you deserved.

 

Praise the lord for the decent ones...

You would have been dead proud of the fans today, throwing stuff into the Burnley fans, climbing on the goal posts, nicking anything that wasn't tied down. We must just have a large proportion of ****ing pikeys going these days:(

[Bearsy]

Apparently the club gave a load of free tickets to young thugs from a juvenile detention centre or something. They weren't even Saints fans! No wonder they couldn't resist stealing valuable bits of plastic.

[Crab Lungs]

Goddamn, thats pretty bad. And the reports are still coming in to me!!! What a bunch of spazzes... I mean, who would knowingly cause the club more cost by damaging and vandalising things? Absolute chav ****s. Well done.

[Smirking_Saint]

Jesus christ calm down everyone, last time i checked nobody died. I agree with the overall premise, perhaps it is stealing but christ some are a bit OTT.

[Smirking_Saint]

Think everywhere has a large proportion of pikeys these days, football clubs and the rest.

[aintforever]

Yeah, because in the 80's this sort of thing would never have happened!

[StuRomseySaint]

LOL

 

That is the funniest thing I have heard.

 

I bet all the people that donated a ticket are happy about that.

[prideofthesouth]

Yeah, because in the 80's this sort of thing would never have happened!

There were no seats to rip up back then!

[Smirking_Saint]

Yeah, because in the 80's this sort of thing would never have happened!

 

Lol TBH i was born in 86 but every old'un i ask that is pretty grounded and thinks say the same, it was the same in there time just a different group.

 

Fact is, everyone looks back and says 'oh the youth of today'

The fact that a few saddos on here are crying over a pitch invasion and a few things being chucked about speaks volumes for how the behavior of fans has improved since the 70's and 80's.

 

What happened today really was nothing to get bothered about.

[solentstars]

we must have the pikeys pompey kicked out supporting us now.

[ladysaint]

Like to add my twopenneth worth. I was in tears today seeing the mindless vandalism of the so called fans ripping holes in the tneting of goalposts and jumping all over them. Ok you may think whats is the harm in that, but how the hell are we going to afford to replace these, we are a club in dire trouble dont has pot to **** in so how the hell can we afford new goalposts and netting.

[EFM]

Surprise, surprise... Saints fans vandalising, fighting and now *****ing with eachother. Utter ******s, the majority of you, and you've got exactly what you deserved.

 

Praise the lord for the decent ones...

 

And where exactly does that leave you cxck? Spouting off, again, that the majority of your fellow fans are (? ) - I don't know what that many asterisks mean but you seem to to contribute quite regularly to say that Saints fans are ****s? Go and find another club if you've got no mates at this one.

 

Praise the lord? Is he/she the one to blame for the shxt we're in?

[Nineteen Canteen]

I was only speaking from what I saw and my actions - I never saw the crossbar go.

The pitch was going to be relaid anyway so disregard that.

As I said we asked if it was ok to take our bit as it was propped up against the wall.

I do not and will not condone wanton vandalism but as usual on here there are some way over the top comments - many of those like myself have contributed thousands of pounds in the past and will in the future.

 

With respect contribution past, present or future is no defence for vandalism and theft no matter how petty and irrelevent you may deem it. The fact the club is on its knees and you can surely appreciate the anger of many fans and you'll be hard pressed to argue it's not counterproductive to those bucket collections and donations.

 

How much does it cost to relay a pitch? From where I stood looked good enough for League 1.

[Give it to Ron]

As I have said I do not condone it at all and fully understand any contribution past and present guarantees nothing and accept some fans anger. I do not agree with being called chav scum especiallly as at that time we did ask if it was Ok for him to have it so at that time I did not consider it theft. At no time did we participate in vandalism!!

 

I fully intend to make further contributions to this club and the appeal to recompense.

[Clapham Saint]

What a complete over the top moron you are...have you not considered for one minute those fans also contributed many thousands of pounds to the club? Many of the things that were taken were just old bits of perspex that cost less than a £5.

My lad picked up one that was leaning against the wall of the concourse and asked the steward if it was Ok and he said its fine.

If any perspective buyer was put off by that then he can bugger off anyway as if he is that lily livered he is not any use for the battle ahead.

So taking a piece of perspex sends the club over the edge and nothing to do with shocking managerial decisions over the last few years ..brilliant.

Did you confront any of them or are you just brave hero to hide behind your PC calling them SCUM?

 

The cost of a peice of perspex is irrelevant. The fact that you consider it to be ok because you consider the cost to be low is more shocking to me.

 

There is probably some cheap stuff knocking around in your front room. Does that make it ok for me to break in and trash it?

 

How do "managerial decisions over the last few years" have anything to do with the acceptability of crime?

 

I was shocked at the skate ***ts encoraging their kids to throw bricks when we played them a few years back at nottarf crap and I have the same reaction to you.

[Gingeletiss]

How badly damaged is the pitch? Wouldn't want to lose the money we're getting for hiring it out before it gets relaid.

 

You'll have to play around the holes.............shouldn't make much difference to the skill factor;)

[Gingeletiss]

Some of the posters on this thread, who claim it's all right to steal from the club. Were up in arms when Dyer and BRP, were caught in Southsea. Double standards chaps????. Someone also pinted out........the money so readily thrown into buckets to save the club, could now have to be used, to repair the damage.

 

So lets take stock..........those of you involved...Um!!!...Criminal damage/Trespass/Affray...................top that with showing perspective buyers what a great bunch of fans we have. As some have said, you should hang your heads in shame, but as most of you haven't started shaving yet, I bet you think it was really big of you.

 

Rant Over...:mad::mad:

[sir woody]

I am utterly ashamed to be associated with the moronic thieving SCUM.......YES thats what YOU are if you participated in the wanton vandelism of St Marys'after the match just to get yourselves a "souvenier" of your day out!!

YOU fill me with absoloute disgust and repulsion at having shared that ground with you today! SHAME on you!

I saw mindless thugs ripping down advertising hordings ......for Gods sake what good is that going to be to anybody? I saw a grandfather that should be demonstrating some standards of decency to his grandson of about 5 years of age STEALING a piece of the Saints badge from around the perimiter of the pitch.

As I entered the stadium today, I was confronted by a group of collectors with buckets HELPING to try and do some good by collecting every penny to keep this club afloat whilst the THIEVING SCUM at the end did their best to TAKE EVEN MORE from a club that does not need their attendance in future, as they are not TRUE FANS they are as bad as the inbred lot from down the road!

What made all of this worse to stomach was the stewards and police standing around doing nothing to stop real crimes of criminal damage and theft taking place right under their noses!

Any new owner thinking of helping to save us may well now think again!

If no new owner comes forward I hope you SCUM that STOLE from Southampton Football club rest comfortably knowing that you helped send this club over the edge.:mad::mad::mad:[-X

 

Is that all your worried about !! - **** me man , get a grip

[brongal]

If anyone who had supported the club for years was going to buy the club then they would have made themselves known some time ago. Why would anyone looking at investment as a business decision put their money in to a club where the fans think its acceptable to invade the pitch when one of their own players is laying on the ground and then only to taunt the opposition. I thought it was disgraceful anyway.

Spot on !

Sadly some people just don't get it !!!

[Viking Warrior]

Maybe its an age think but respected posters like Ladysaints and co talk sense about the wanton vanadalism/

 

Give it to ron and co. You may not think any harm was done by what you did but if you consider the collective damage and cost along those that were doing the same activities as yourself. Then the costs wll be in the thousands.

 

So if you think its okay then good on you.

 

I think I know who Countysaint is and those slagging them off need to also feel ashamed. Get my drift Block 5.

 

As for you stanley well you are Stanley a complete c***

 

There is a very senior and very respected fan on another forum

if he came on here and made the same point then the same poeple would be abusing him for the same comments county Saints and Lady Saint are making.

 

I wasnt there but some friends who were have stated they appalled at what they witnessed. Utter stupidity by a small minority yet again have let the club and the majority of fans down.

[Evil Monkey]

I cant believe the amount of people playing down these actions. I didnt see any vandalism myself, but if even half of what i've read here is true, those responsible are comparable to the idiotic skates who smashed up their own city after a derby game.

[Griffo]

Basically, there's a fine line between passion and complete stupidity.

[Junction 9]

I'm loving the "I've had a season ticket for years so I'm entitled to a bit of vandalism" theory. I've paid thousands in National insurance over the years so I'm off up the General in a minute to smash up a dialysis machine.

[OldNick]

To be fair, I nicked loads from The Dell, even went back there with a ladder and toolbox in the evening to nick even more, then nicked even more at the 'Last Dinner at The Dell'

 

I would have happily taken something today if I was there, although I would probably taken it round to reception for them to look after until Monday.

and thats OK is it? If what you say is true it's unbelievable..taking a ladder back to the Dell with a tool kit to do some burglary

[BridgnorthSaint]

I don't mind them stealing from the holding company but defo not the football club.

 

get a life.... they haven't anthing left worth stealing in any case

[September Saint]

I don't mind them stealing from the holding company but defo not the football club.

 

Surely they are inextricably linked?

Goal nets aren't that dear tbh,

but I still don't quite get the crazed vandalism. Got a text from a mate telling me his nipper had part of the penalty spot, I phoned him back, apparently it was just a pocket full of dirt and grass by the time he got home. I called him a **** and we moved on.

[Master Bates]

he's right though

 

Agreed, was a shame to see.

 

The mind does boggle, I mean, what the feck is anyone going to do with an advertising board?!?!?!?

 

I stood in the middle of the pitch yesterday and had a slow look around the stadium, thinking of the good times this once big proud club went through, and then I realised, to me, it's still my big proud club and I can't wait until next season.

you are right MB. You should have stayed in the Northam though

[Master Bates]

you are right MB. You should have stayed in the Northam though

 

I know I should of, but I couldn't help it, I fancied doing my own lap of honour for myself, you and all the other fans that have stuck by us this season.

[Handyman]

YOU are the complete moron

YOU are a pi*s poor excuse for a father as well, letting your chav offspring thinking its ok to STEAL ........YES steal! something be it PERSPEX or otherwise from anywhere let alone a football club that now will have to pay to replace you and your chav sons theft!

WA**KER!

HAVE YOU NOT HEARD OF THE CLUBS PLIGHT?

You are an utter disgrace! By the way there is no such thing as " a perspective buyer" I take it from your upbringing of, its ok to steal, you haven't a very good command of the English language either. A PROSPECTIVE BUYER is most probably what you are trying to say ......Didn't you call me a Moron?

 

Apart from the profanities (though I understand and share the feelings that evoked them) I have to agree with the above. It is not what was stolen, but the principle that dishonesty is dishonesty no matter by what degree, whether small or large. Teaching children that it is alright to steal or be dishonest in any way is giving them a very poor start in life and is in my mind beyond the pale! As to being given permission to take something by "officials" it was not in their gift to give that "permission". They are guilty of aiding the theft and therefore have betrayed their employers trust!

In his case, I don't think there is any 'probably' about it.

FFS why dont you read what I posted..I never participated in any vandalism of any sort and do not condone it one bit. We asked a steward if we could have that bit of perspex and he agreed , it was not ripped from the wall hoarding or anything just lying against the wall.

Just for your information that bit of perspex was returned to the club at 9am this morning and handed to a club official.

He was fine with it and as far as I am concerned the end of the matter from my part.

[Mattio]

calm down dear

[Rattlehead]

I think I know who Countysaint is and those slagging them off need to also feel ashamed. Get my drift Block 5.

 

Ken Monkou?

[cellone]

Why did people go on the pitch?

[chocco boxo]

I went on the pitch to see what it was like! Because this year everytime I have been in the ground the pitch it seems has made playing football impossible. I would like to report it was normal grass.

IMO people are going over the top with some comments on here, hopefully this time next year we will all be galvinised in our support for SFC.

Give it to Ron, if most people read your posts they must have a picture of you as a level headed "good" fan. To call you "names" and go over the top like they have, they should have a good look at themselves.

I have to own up to flicking the V's and doing the Nescafe wave to the Burnley fans and having a laugh. Hopefully they does not make me Chav scum. However like all away fans I bump into I make conversation and welcome them to Southampton. Come on people lighten up.

[Rattlehead]

Why did people go on the pitch?

 

Trials for next season?

[norwaysaint]

You really were an idiot and an irresponsible parent. It IS stealing and you DID show your kid that it was OK. It doesn't make a difference if it was a small piece of plastic and a steward thought it was OK. The steward doesn't own any part of the stadium and as an adult you should know that he or she isn't in a position to OK theft. The size or importance of it doesn't matter either. Theft is theft.

 

You get the society you deserve, these sort of actions are leading the next generation downhill. You should show a bit of resposibility and just say to your kid that it doesn't belong to you so you can't take it no matter what other people are doing or saying. It should be ****ing obvious.

 

I'm glad you returned it but you gave a mixed message about theft to your kid already.

[Give it to Ron]

Y

 

I'm glad you returned it but you gave a mixed message about theft to your kid already.

 

Completely wrong...we have discussed this in great detail, you do not know me or my son and have no idea of what we do or how we act at any other time.

This was one incident that occured at a highly emotionaly time..no excuse - we felt at that time and wrong to assume if we had permission it was fine.

It was not and trust me the feeling since this event has left me in no doubt this one one of the most regrettable incidents in my life.

It has been returned and my son fully understands the reason why and that nothing like it will ever happen again.

RON,

A number of thugs and hooligans have appeared on this thread (judging by their opinions!) but you are certainly not one of them! Your contrition is admirable and takes a lot more courage than that displayed by the apologists for violent behaviour !!

[saint boggy]

for those of you on here that have posted about it being unimportant/costing only a pittance etc to repair the damage, would you have the same opinion if it had been the Burnley fans who'd started ripping up the pitch and vandalising OUR stadium,causing the same monetary value damage????.....you'd be up in f*ckin arms,the lot of you!!

[saintsab1]

I saw fans smash up public address speakers, microphones and photographic equipment. Unforgivable in my opinion and worth several thousand pounds at least.
