What Do You Hate?

About football and going to games?

I'll start. Sloop. John. B.

THE most droning, boring, uninventive tune for songs in the world, and our fans seem to lap it up more than most. If I had my way we would post a sniper on the roof of the N+P and take out the first fan to start it as a warning to the rest.

NOTE - This may be tongue in cheek. I'm not actually advocating murdering fans.

NOTE - ...It's just, if it DID happen, I wouldn't NECESSARILY, be upset.

I really can't think of anything I hate about going to games, apart from annoying fans who expect every single players to play a faultless game.

Whenever I go I always end up next to people that have their legs about as far apart as they can possibly manage. Either they're hung like Woolly Mammoths or they're taking the *bleep* with legroom.

People who refer to players by their first name or a nickname.

They're not your mate.

My hate would be refs or their 'assistants' who make bad decisions to affect the outcome of a match.

I hate being made feel guilty for being that man who always leaves his seat in the 44th minute, so I've got enough time to get a pasty and a beer. Especially as I somehow always manage to be 'that guy' who gets back to his seat in the 46th minute and then has to make a point of saying 'cheers' to every single person along the row. 

I suspect everybody else hates that man who insists on making you get up in the 44th and 46th minute, sorry.... that's me.

Hahah, you're right it's the default tune for any new chant now.  It's not until you hear clubs like Celtic with mounds of clever tuneful chants that you realise how limited we are, it used to be so much more varied.

I hate the money in football and how wasteful players, agents and clubs are with it.  I was speaking to a young lad on holiday who is in west ham's academy and all his parents were saying was how he's got talent and he's going to make them a whole lot of money, he even told me he wanted a custom bugatti as his first car.

I know it's good to have something driving you, but i felt quite uncomfortable with how they were thinking and i did feel sorry for the lad as there must be a lot of pressure on him.

I don't think we can ever be friends.

People who take their ipad to a football match.

People who leave early.

Anyone who boos one of our own players ( I REALLY hate that)

Anyone who professes to be a lifelong fan of a big team they have no geographical or emotional connection to, but have never made any attempt to actually go to a game.

People who when they find out who I support saying "Where are you, lets be having you" and expecting me to find it hilarious.

I'm sure I'll think of a few more if I give it some thought lol.

Those that take up more than their allocated space. I know some people can not help it but even so.

And yes the smelly thing as well.

Once you have forked out for your ticket these can take the edge off looking forward to games. Fortunately not an issue where I am sitting so I will just get on with enjoying games!
