Would you have took the same seats against Woolwich or West Ham, wearing your scarf and cheering when we scored? If yes would you have expected good banter and nothing more?So that deserves threatening violence? Jesus Christ

I was in Block 36 today, right near to the visitors section and my god the noise from the Newcastle fans was deafening, for most of the first half and the entirety of the second half. I expect they had been on the piss since 6am, but even so their support was quite incredible today.
How I wish our home support was only 50% as good as theirs.
It would be great if home and away fans could all sit together but get in the real world mate
I'd expect to get verbal hurled at me all day, but I'm in WHL ffs, not LazioWould you have took the same seats against Woolwich or West Ham, wearing your scarf and cheering when we scored? If yes would you have expected good banter and nothing more?
You need to distinguish between idealism and pramatism. I agree with you that in an ideal world home and away fans should be able to mix, have a beer together and watch the match, but the real world is not like that. Football is a tribal game, attended for the most by people who are passionate about their team and want to see their team beat the oppostion and prove they are better and that ' prove your better' mindset also applies to singing and size and nosie of support.I'd expect to get verbal hurled at me all day, but I'm in WHL ffs, not Lazio
alijamieson - Just interested, are you from the UK?
Watching an away game in the home end is one thing. But watching a home game in the away end another! Also, how did you get the tickets? It might be a myth but I thought all away tickets went to Geordies with several decades of Most Loyal Supporters In The World Loyalty Points.
Nope, but I find it kind of sad the people goading Chelsea fans for it (can't believe I just said that). But it's the same in every ground and I have a strong suspicion the majority of people who will now be goading Chelsea's support have never been to a game in their lives.http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/fo...g-in-an-empty-stadium-at-Stamford-Bridge.html
not just us then, is it?
I have to be honest - your confession stuck me as being either from someone a) who has never been to a top flight game in the UK before, b) Someone with thinking issues c) someone on a wind up.Hi, yes I am from the UK, been a Spurs fan since I was 5 or 6. Never sat in the away end before.
My friends were guests of Gabriel Obertan, and they go to most Newcastle away games in London.
I am not sure if you attend away games, but the home fans being out sung is not something localised to Spurs.
Almost every home ground in the perm is a morgue these days. It is tragic.
seems someone agrees with you
