Favourite Obscure Memory of Withdean Stadium

[Deleted User X18H]

Steve Gritts standing ovation when he came out just little bit early, as Millwall assitant manager. Even an old cynic like me fought one back.

 

[Seagullible]

Chippy's sliding tackle in the rain that just kept on going.

that was immense - mustve slid 25 yards!

 

[Seagullible]

remember a rather boring game where a Seagull was flying up and down over the south stnd cueing by a rendition of the dambusters theme!

The funniest minute silences I ever saw were both at Withdean.

Can't decide top spot between:

a) Gully joining in with the players and officials in the centre circle, beak bowed, wings clasped, attempting to look as solemn as a bloke in a seven foot seagull suit can look

and

b) the minute silence that was immaculately observed - you could hear the proverbial PIN drop - apart from a 60 second furious bellow of 'PRO-GRAMMES! PRO-GRAMMES!'

Laugh? I nearly shook my shoulders clean off

Confession time. " Rocket man " was never responsible for the alleged fire in the south stand block d.
It was a well timed smoke bomb dropped under the seat in front of us. Before anyone asks it was not me
but it did get mt photo in the argus

That is quality.

This is f***ing priceless - both of them!

Funniest Rocket Man memory was v Cardiff when we had the temerity to score against them earlydoors to take a 1-0 lead. Almost immediately, something landed on the pitch by the Singing Section. Totally freaked out, the guy in front of me sort of half-screamed. 'SHIT! They're firing ARROWS at us!' . He only calmed down when it was removed by a steward and he realised it was the stick of Rocket Man's, er, rocket, that had fell to earth

in our first promotion season when cheltenham came down and i remember us all over them winning 3-0 with zamora and watson scoring i think!, at this time the petrol prices were on the up and to hear 'what a waste of petrol, what a waste of petrol' had us in stitches

The early years of H block with Krispies leading the singing. Usually arrived late , immediately took his jacket off (no matter what the weather) and let rip. That replica shirt of his with the peeling letters really ought to go in the Falmer museum. The guy is an absolute legend.

I think all the letters may have bitten the dust by now. But at one point it used to read 'I PI S'

 

[Seagullible]

gotta remember to do the Krispies correctlywith the right index finger in your ear

 

[Flavor Flav]

Slade being mobbed on the pitch instead of the players after the great escape

Dick Knight's end of season speeches

 

[The Ringleader Returns!]

The bloke I used to sit next to in E block.We are playing Orient. Orient player can't control the ball and it goes out for a throw. He stands up and shouts 'HAHA, unlucky...'
He pauses, checks the players name. It's Tamika Mkandawire. Does this stop him? Oh no. He finishes his sentance by shouting BLACKMAN.

I lost it, tears of laughter.


Lee from H block has given me so many moments of pure joy.
He once showed me a picture of 'sum bird he'd fuked.' She was about 50 around the 20 Stone mark and fingering herself.
His 'EDF flag, propa racist'
When he claimed he shagged his cousin.

This goal celebration. (Dean Cox looks like a frigging hobbit)

OI MILKY... You still shaggin' that bird...?

 

[timbha]

the Player of the Year presentations - tressle table carried along the running track, assembled (eventually) by the Chuckle Brothers (ball boy stewards), Martin Perry and Samrah. PA system doesn't work so they have to shout to King Bobby who then looks rather bemused when presented with a small Alba portable TV (in a box).

stewards and police chasing gate crashers up and down the banks between the west and south stands

Shit, how could I possibly have forgotten that Don't know any details but remember it being shouted in the D block vicinity.
