It's only since I got involved in coaching my self have a realized how clueless most people are.. I enjoyed football much more when I was just as clueless!
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊
Anyone else sit near idiots at the Amex?

By any chance do you sit in W3F? Had the exact same buffoon sitting directly behind us for 4 seasons! One of those voices that once you heard it, was in your head for the entire match... he couldn't even clap in time. He was also a vicar, which was tricky. We moved in the end, mainly because of this guy.

I work on the basis that most people that turn up know very little about football and understand even less about tactics, systems etc. Most peoples' views don't stretch beyond tired cliches they've heard countless times on MOTD.

ask him to leave and come back every ten minutes and will win by loads of goals"Kick it forward" should have been a chant last night
Each to their own but the chaps near me have missed every goal scored, at the AMEX, between the 40th minute and half time.
As well as EVERY goal after the 80th minute.
From Buckley to Murray last night.

Evidently there is one sitting near us. Everyone says he is a complete funkwit. I haven't identified him yet but I am on the lookout. When I identify him I will report back.

Fella behind me has two phrases, and he's not afraid to use them.
"No foul, no foul" and "he doesn't want it". Insightful stuff.

Up the Albion!
If drink has been taken then people around my vicinity will probably assume I am a bit of a nob. Embarrassed myself with early use of the C word to the ref on one occasion, still cringe thinking about the looks I got.

Do you sit in west upper when you occasionally go to the Amex? In which case, yes I do have an idiot sitting near me!

Luckily not. Front row corner of the West Upper. Don't like the height but it has enough of the near the North, easy to get out to make it pretty perfect.
Sat in the expensive centre line West Upper once. Never, never again....
Moan, moan, moan, moan, repeat what the pundits say as analysis etc....

Have have a horrible feeling I might be that person in my area in WSL.
Years ago the bloke standing next to me on the East stand (Goldstone) spent the whole match barracking Harry Wilson. 'You're useless, Wilson'. Eventually I decided not to stand with my dad any more, and watch the game from the South stand. The drive home was usually a nightmare too. Happy days

Funny, when a few of us moved from the north stand to the south there was a bloke there who shouted "give to Harry" all the time. He became a cult hero to us because of that.

Bit before my time but when I used to stand in the East (mid '80's) there was a guy who frequently "headed" the ball whenever there was a corner/set piece taken and had only one expression - "face up Brighton".
Me and Tackle junior went to a Tranmere Rovers vs Huddersfield game in the early 90s. Some old bloke next to us muttered 'Come on Rovers, come on' about 100 times. It is now a sort of family catch phrase.....
