Attended the kiddies football finals at The County Ground last weekend and noticed a load of scaffolding around the scoreboard. Is it finally being replaced or has Jed snuck in determined to get one of his boards back up?

 Other pet hates of mine include the shit PA system,  the ocd in me that gets wound up because not all the floodlights work and the fact the lower concourse of the Arkells does not run the entire length.
Yes I'm bored.

Fourteen years outside the top two divisions...and counting.

Idiot fans, shite legroom from the seats in front, tepid supposedly hot drinks.

Not being able to go on the Bank, when the sun is out beginning and ending of the season. 

Was in there last game of 11/12 season v Port Vale
And was absolutely frozen
End of April  :eek:

Dont know what its like now but the stupid smokers running to the bogs for a quick drag.

The wooden panels on the DRS windbreak at the Stratton bank end of the stand, just looks like a bodge job.

The results and/or performances, usually

Not being able to stand.
People getting up and down every 5 fucking minutes for a piss / coffee / burger / wank / fuck all. These wankers invariably get a piss on if you tell them to sit the fuck down.
People who tell you that you are sitting in their seats - despite having the same seats for years
Stupid cunts sat nearby

You never quite know what you'e going to get in an English spring.

People who leave 5 minutes early. Particularly when its a close game.

Gates are open at half time now for a smoke
Started after I gave up  :crash:

There are never, ever onions.

Especially the ones in the DRS. They're like bloody sheep. One from up the back makes a move and a whole shit-load of others follow suit. Ridiculous!

...and while I'm at it, Rockin' Fuckin' Robin (get rid); and that bloody awful UB40 version of 'Can't Help Falling in Love with You' (it's by far the shitiest version of the song); and that prick of an announcer (replace).

Definitely agree about the terrible UB40.....Rockin Robin can stay though.

Went on Stratton Bank for the opening season game against Sheffield Wednesday as had a mate who was a Wednesday fan. This was a few years back. Can honestly say I thought I was going to pass out it was so hot.

What was it ?
Oh yeah
Feathered fucknut  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

Have to say for young fans he is ok but that Haka is just cringeworthy at best

Small TV's in DRS
Shit half time queues to buy anything
That big puddle by the shop

You should have been in the TE....certainly one of the hotter days.

Must admit to not attending for a while .
Do the stewards still ponce about in the Town end  ,demanding that you sit down, whilst standing in front of you blocking the view ?

Feathered fucknugget, wasn't it?  Agree it was  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick: though.  :D

That fucking glad all over shite that plays when we score, fuck it off

Didn't know that. I smoke but can usually go for a half without, the whole 2 hours is a bit of a bind. Might start going a bit more now. I know I should give up but cheers anyway.

That was the game when i think it Owusu scored & celebrated in front of the te & someone smacked him.

 :D yeah that was it

This x 10!!

It's a bit far!

Towards the end of the season, I'm sure the original chap was back as Rockin Robin.  He sits a few rows in front of us and was back to the old routine of coming to his seat at around 3.10pm looking red faced and hot.  Not sure whether he was just filling in for the new chap or he's jacked it in already?

The annoucer doesn't announce, he shouts.  Does my head in.

Are you going to be starring in the programme that's just starting on Channel 5?

Fuck yeah!

What programme?

Bangkok's Bangiest Cocks.

Or something.

It does sound like a Channel 5 programme.

Bangkok Brits.  Programme following various Brits now living in Bankok.

Honkytonk's idea sounds better, though!   ;D

Never heard of it, I'll keep an eye out. I might recognise somebody but there are a lot of expats out here.

The first episode started at 11pm this evening!

Rubbish, there's like a dozen of you, you all know each other, and you fucking run the show.

As is the British way abroad.

(Plays Rule Britannia and stands in front of a Union Jack)

They still do it. Plus four idiots in row Z of the DRS.

Oh lordy, indeed. One of life's great pleasures getting a red raw face on the Bank.

Over zealous stewards confiscating bottle tops.

Not having beer in the Town End...AGAIN!

The rockin Robin haka is probably one of the shittest things I've ever seen at any football ground.

The new paper towel dispensers with a windy handle in the bogs. So many people can't work out how to use them!

No beer in the Town End and Glad all over being played when we score.
