Title: Armchair Supporters Post by: dell boy on Sunday, December 14, 2008, 18:40:58 They are such a pathetic crew, wearing their team shirts to the pub and have an opinion about every sub, pass, shot etc.
Well my local pub is full of Chelsea scum (about 20) who never go to games; when West Ham scored I jumped and and shouted 'get in' or something similar. There ended the Sunday lunch time drink at the local - there are three guys sitting on the front table who have been very quiet during the game, but now thinking I must be a Hammers fan after West Ham scored and decide to step in on my behalf for the abuse I'm taking for shouting the Hammers. It kicks off - pushing at first and then the punching starts, the police arrive and several arrests are made. It's all my fault in hindsight but I slip out of the side door and watch the game at another pub, good game I thought. God I love Sundays.

When you say the 'Walthams', where are you talking? Are you near Twyford/Maidenhead?

Title: Re: Armchair Supporters Post by: leefer on Sunday, December 14, 2008, 19:30:09 Everyone except Swindon...thats why i dont drink there no more,couldnt get a ticket for our heartbreak playoff at Brighton so watched it in there...people were cheering for Brighton!
Title: Re: Armchair Supporters Post by: Arriba on Sunday, December 14, 2008, 19:38:23 really? i used to go in there a bit pre match opn a saturday.used to get a few town fans in there.aint been in for a while though
Title: Re: Armchair Supporters Post by: leefer on Sunday, December 14, 2008, 19:40:50 Same as...havnt been for a while.
Title: Re: Armchair Supporters Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Sunday, December 14, 2008, 19:51:59 My local The Windmill isn't too bad. Of course there are plenty of armchair fans but you do get a few Swindon lot go in there every now and again. Remember wathing the Shitty Hull play-off final there earlier on in the year and there were a few Town fans that let off a cheer when Windass scored.
Title: Re: Armchair Supporters Post by: ronnie21 on Sunday, December 14, 2008, 21:36:30 really? i used to go in there a bit pre match opn a saturday.used to get a few town fans in there.aint been in for a while though Landlord John Honeyman is a Chelsea fanatic, even changed the garage into a small bar and called it Zolas!Title: Re: Armchair Supporters Post by: leefer on Sunday, December 14, 2008, 21:44:02 Went to school with John..nice guy...apart from the Chelsea connection.
Title: Re: Armchair Supporters Post by: Rustle on Sunday, December 14, 2008, 21:47:44 really? i used to go in there a bit pre match opn a saturday.used to get a few town fans in there.aint been in for a while though The guy who runs it is chelsea mad and i think he runs a supporters club from there,Im not sure if they still do it but on sunday's they stoped the live music so they could all watch the game and sit in there all night,what was a nice little pub is now full of chelsea twats,It's quite funny watching them walking to the pub with their shirts on then sitting down infront of the box all day. I used to go in there a lot' even had some reasonable bands. White hart is the same but full of spurs. Title: Re: Armchair Supporters Post by: leefer on Sunday, December 14, 2008, 21:52:52 The White Hart is ware the Swindon based fan club of Spurs is based basicly..which is suprising in the sense the landlord is a Chelsea season ticket holder i believe..anyway as Arriba hinted it can get abit boring..

Remember wathing the Shitty Hull play-off final there earlier on in the year and there were a few Town fans that let off a cheer when Windass scored. That was ace. The landlord talking to those Shitty 'fans'. Shitty 'fans': Do you support Swindon then? Landlord: No Shitty 'fans': Oh right, why do you want Hull to win then? Landlord: Because Bristol are scum. They looked a bit upset. Title: Re: Armchair Supporters Post by: ScillyRed on Monday, December 15, 2008, 21:02:49 I'm an armchair Town fan :nod: :nod: :nod:
I'm very pleased we are never on sky - means I can be an underground armchair Town fan :( |
