I assumed he was calling the ref a banana and the oppo players plums.

Just been chatting to a mate of over 50 years. He was telling me that someone complained to the club about him swearing at the Woolwich game. Probably put them off their popcorn

My mate offered to discuss it outside like men and not grasses and the melt apologised to him.
Oh my. I guess that’s what you get when you gentrify the football watching experience.Just been chatting to a mate of over 50 years. He was telling me that someone complained to the club about him swearing at the Woolwich game. Probably put them off their popcorn
Not necessarily a tout but maybe a season ticket holder with loads of points who is quite happy to get even more points without attending?...if only I knew one?
The NLD was packed with tourists and half and half scarves so not surprisedJust been chatting to a mate of over 50 years. He was telling me that someone complained to the club about him swearing at the Woolwich game. Probably put them off their popcorn
I have put a Spurs/Scum half and half scarf on my Christmas list.
I don't want to feel like the odd one out when I'm up there.

If he sells them at over £30 he’s a tout.
A bit o.t but we're you there when Millwall turned up in the shelf for the 3-3?
He doesn't
Me too along with Abba's greatest hits!
I certainly was. Can’t say I got close to any of the action though but remember being aware of it. If memory serves I remember seeing the old bill making a bee line towards it then suddenly slowing down as they got close.
I was also at the away game at The Den the previous Boxing Day. That was fun. Didn’t see much on the way in, other than some “Spurs fans prepare to die” graffiti around New Cross Stn. Bit different afterwards with running battles near the station and plenty of bottles flying around.
One thing was for sure, there certainly weren’t any half and half scarves around that day.

He’s a tout. He has around 10 available and charges between 80-150 every match although I haven’t spoken to my mate so unsure if it’s got more difficult with elec tickets in certain away games
It's a wonder that i haven’t been reported for swearing!Just been chatting to a mate of over 50 years. He was telling me that someone complained to the club about him swearing at the Woolwich game. Probably put them off their popcorn
I mentioned in the Retro thread that supporters today just don't experience away games like we did back in the 80s. We used to take huge numbers at every game because we were able to. I don’t even bother to apply for away games anymore.
We used average something ridiculous like 10k away in the season we went down and the following season after promotion.
Absolutely brilliant days. Never to be repeated.
There was a bloke sat a few rows in front of us at the west ham game, who was giving all the west ham players serious abuse for the first 20 mins or so of the game.Just been chatting to a mate of over 50 years.

Nobody seemed to mind though, untill the 'orange stewards' turned up and asked him to stop swearing as there had been a complaint and if he didn't calm down they'd eject him.
He told them to fuck themselves and... was quickly ejected!

It has come to something when you are getting grassed for swearing at home to West Ham and Woolwich.
If the grasses were around in the 70s, 80s and 90s they would have all needed therapy.
Me and my brother were at the Boxing Day 1977 game. Mental day.
That was proper hard-core.
I remember being in The Clock End trying to stay quiet...until we scored then realised Spurs were actually outnumbering the Goons!
