Post by: Sade on Saturday, December 31, 2005, 16:06:12
I did'nt see much trouble happening before the game and after? Do you think they were quite well behaved concidering their reputation?


One thing is for sure though, they are gobby buggers  :D

They were everywhere in the arkells, most of them were being quite discreet but we had to have the loudest bunch behind us  :x
There was 3 blokes who were asking for it, you could tell they wanted trouble and with them were two girls about my age (chavs).
They were singing swansea songs and really just making right arses of themselves. At one point the two girls came and sat right next to me and my sister to wind us up because we were giving it back(in the form of sheep noises he he he ), but we did'nt take the baite  8)  I was pretty pished off but I kept my cool.
Thats about it really!
Good following though.

I notice a few gobbing off in the streets. Everyone one seemed to had a can of beer/lager in their hands.

who are ya?

didn't see any around before the game except a bunch of 20 lads with a welsh flag walking past burger king and probably 40 odd outside the newsagents near the merlin. they didn't say owt.

they didn't make half as much noise as they should have done with those numbers. banter was shite in the arkells as well, just wanking gestures.

big fuss about nothing as far as i could tell!

I parked about 12 in St Joes and about half a dozen of them were pissing up against the wall there ... lovely.

Walked down to the ground and one of them almost hit me with a beer can he lobbed ...

Apart from that, they were pretty quiet.

I remember one year they came, we scored, and they started ripping up the seats in the enclosure and throwing them onto the pitch. Enter stage left the Wiltshire riot Police.

A quite funny incident after the game: One of them came up to me and Reeves for God and asked: 'Where's all the thugs then?' :D

We directed them towards the Nationwide.

About 700 got out of the train station at 10.30. My train ot in about the same time. Best following for years. But strangely not very loud, maybe a bit spoilt on success?

To be fair MR, it was all over by the time you lot turned up. They had been put in the Bulldog, we had the CGH.
