angieram Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 I think there is a tacit and fairly fragile understanding between those of us that travel to away games to watch the footy and those that go for the away day 'experience' (which seems to involve starting drinking about 8 am and being absolutely smashed well before getting to the ground). We sort of each have our routines that skirt around each other. The concourse is ours until about 20 minutes before kick off but theirs thereafter and at half time. Is it right? No, but it's a pragmatic compromise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope next time you're standing in front of someone who wants to sit at an away game, you'll respect their wishes and sit down, or do they get little simpify from you too?

B4ev6is Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 I had chucked beer over loads of times in the pub i know some one beer over once or twice but always brought them a new pint so no probleams. I dont agree people get smashed i just see beer go flying as a bit of fun. I have seen kids get knocked over but always help them up again. I make sure there okay mum or dad always thank me for always advice them get into grounds early if you can as you dont get this. And they always took my advice i have seen one or two of them always get a smile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B4ev6is Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Like blackpool away i think about 3 years ago my dad for barmy army tickets at the time but we were given near front but he asked a stward at half time if any seats at the back if it was okay if we moved to the back he said it was fine he like standing up also and at home games we sit but i do wish people would stand up some times.

North East Ram Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 I almost always stand up when we score. Last season I used to clap too but this season I go ape and chuck Carling Black Label over everyone near me. Next season I'm thinking of going to a match cos my lounge is getting trashed with lager all over the furniture, floor and ceiling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Passion and excitement has never taken over me before a match has started!

B4ev6is Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 I always consider people around me mate just that some get carried away not always right but my view just fun but i do think it is a tad wrong but also think parents Should think leaving to last min as they know derby fans been drinking so for me they should think maybe time to go into the stands. I hear no end complaing because taking to long to get served always say go before game kicks off always easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh right, fair enough then @B4ev6is. If there's no way around it, I'll just accept it. Anymore rules you wish to run by me so I can prepare myself for further away days?

Not a real rams fan yet Oh Deano. i'm quite the debonair gent so have much higher standards. There's specific buckets half filled with disinfectant for both pizz or shiz. If say, a late goal is scored against us, then i just puke out the window. Class is like the clap; you've either got it you haven't. And i've got it.
