fuck sake, we arent 10 years old

I dont want ballons, face paint, wigs, games & glow sticks at fucking football. I want passionate fans cheering for every touch, shouting for every decision. Going mental at every goals and 3 points wouldnt go a miss either.

We are slowly turning the County Ground into a fucking Cirus.

On a support note, Doncaster away on a Tuesday night.

There was only about 150 of us, about a third of us singing but Its the best damn support we've had all season. No glow sticks and ballons.

Just proper fans!

Glue sticks would be better,  then a really  big glue gun could be wheeled into Shrivenham Road and an incandescent glob...squeezed out over the Strattion Bank.

I vote for staple guns, we could have rank townend closing in on the shity fans.  We could fire 3 rounds a minute at them.

I sound like a grumpy old man everyday

Infact, I am a grumpy old man.

Sorry, but I go to football on a saturday to watch the football. I dont give a flying fuck about anything else such as glow sticks. The result matters, the rest is insignificant.

That's not the point DV85, the problem is not enough people are being enticed by football alone.  And if we can attract some people back by putting on some free entertainment and turning the cg into a "circus" for a while so be it.

I'm sure glow sticks and face paint will do that  :roll:

The problem is the prices...!!

We've done the loud and proud stuff, have the attendences gone up.

Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Tuesday, October 25, 2005, 11:06:53
no. but i still think that even with reduced prices there will not be a massive increase in attendance due to our crap league position


Title: Glow Sticks
Post by: janaage on Tuesday, October 25, 2005, 11:11:00
I'm not saying it'll work but it's worth continuing.  Even if we get a few extra kids coming through the turnstiles it'll be good news for the club.

The prices issue is not going to change, the club cannot afford to reduce admission prices.

Then there really would be a love-in.


I'm a traditionalist, but I've been able to cope with what's been done so far, I think it's definately helped lift spirits.  The only thing that I really can't stand is people crying in football grounds, and we've not seen that yet.

I used to hate it when Newcastle fans were crying after every match in that season when they threw that 58 point lead away and sky would focus in on them all the time.


Title: Glow Sticks
Post by: Amir on Tuesday, October 25, 2005, 12:35:25
THOSE CUNTS STARTED IT!!!!  

Or at the least popularised it.  People think it shows passion, well there's plenty of ways to show passion for your club.  It shows how far football has moved from it's roots in a way.  Like a mackem said about it at the time, do you think 30 years ago there would have been dockers crying in the Gallowsgate?

Post by: janaage on Tuesday, October 25, 2005, 12:43:30
I wonder who the first one was to cry, and what reaction he got.  A smack in the chops is what he should have got.

It was all Gazza's fault...his pathetic infantalism was somehow mistaken for being in touch with your emotions......bollox.

 The sad Geordies then thought this was the way to go.

glow sticks = pisstake idea
balloons, beach balls, face paint, wigs = my patience is running out

I think if/when we go down this season,i doubt it will effect many of us because we will have been expecting it for so long :( .I think crying is only really excuseable if your team goes down into non-league,it pisses me off when the premiership fans start blubbing,wankers :x .
Although having said that  :-))(  ,the last time i cried at a Swindon game was when we played against peterborough on the penultimate game of the season. :oops:I haven't cried since though  :) .

Deviate 5-Im 100% with you on this.All this funfair crap is hoisted on us by non-football people-i.e. Johnny -come-lately fans who only became interested in football because of fucking Sky T.V.A badge,a voice and total devotion is all thats needed! :old:
