...and a rather puzzled cat!

That’s another story. Since the 70’s with European club games and WC’s on the TV, my roar has terrorised all our cats, as well as family and neighbours. Where did I get the lungs? I put it down to the Goldstone NS under the old low roof.

Definitely (y) Likewise, my max HR when exercising at max intensity is in the 190s. Which goes against the 220 - age ... which for me would make 158.

It's down to genetics.

When I have medical procedures and they take HR/pulse numbers, they often ask if I’m an athlete :lolol: .

Yep, my Dad has low BP.

Oo.. knobhead BHA fans thread, at last..
I was also in crush at Roma away between mens and womens loos - 60yr old 'Phil Mitchel' shouting at everyone to our right on upper stairs to 'f'kin get back, you c*unts i'm gonna come and chin you etc' for a full force 5 mins, right in my lug hole.. the fact that he had pushed forward/past loads people to even get there, and not realised the upper stairs prob had nowhere to go, and loads people behind them too, compounded the stupidity of it..
also,
Roma bar 'stocker' carrying 2 cases of beers for 'all' of us thro concourse, and just as he got past someone, they gave him a helpful twat/push to shoulder making him stumble into more of our fans.. well done, super cheap laugh that.
And.. on a personal note, at the ticket scan/turnstile, woman lurking as her ticket didn't scan and stepped aside - I'm next up, scan goes green, and she rushes the turnstile and scoots thro.. Fuckin bitch pegged it off leaving me wrong side..! Luckily i double shuffled thro with a mate, but upon catch up later with another mate, she just brazoned it out..
 




Such a dirty drug. Much better when they were all on MDNA. They even clapped the away attendance announcement.
I miss those days. Would have been the most suspenseful part of the evening to see if we’d have given the Roma fans a clap or not

Some guy who was about 60+ threatened to stab someone with his pen knife on the way back from Chelsea in the league who was waiting for the toilet, loose cannons.
When you’ve got to go, you’ve got to go. But I’m not sure I’d stab someone to jump the loo queue

Reassuring.

Currently doing some rehab and my HR can edge into the 180s which is way above the published levels for my age.

My resting HR is also v low. In the mid 50s.

I guess a good few years of cycling and football has helped.

Burn them. BURN them.

Guessing, the cycling would have had a marked, lifelong effect. If you stay off the fags and deep fried Mars Bars.

Fisticuffs near the entrance to the MWB lounge towards the end of the game last night, right in front of the stewards (who managed to get the situation under control quickly, but not before a nasty little melee ensued). Play stupid games, win a banning order.
Slightly off topic, but started by Roma fans on their way back to hospitality, clearly nearly 3 hours of unlimited drink had kicked in?

The arse end of Hangleton
I’d never trust a bearded man.
Back in the early 90s I worked for a company called EDS - sollowed up by HP in the end after some dodgy accounting - but only 2 years before I joined they still had a rule that male employees should be clean shaven.

The dull part of the south coast
We had a guy last night n WSU a few rows in front of us, who during a short lull in noise (early in the second half), turned to face the rows further back and commanded them to 'f***ing come on' (with lots of arm waving) -clearly feeling that we were failing to match his level of support.

Same bloke then got up and sloped off on 85 minutes to beat the bus queue.

The f***ing self-important twat.
Was this the same f***ing self-important twat that was all gobby about the alleged Roma fan in D block of WSU? He went up the aisle to offer him out. The rest of us just carried on watching the game while Mr.Angry carried on being a twat.

Quite right too.

That last one is infuriating. The snide fùcker. Imagine potentially just leaving someone locked out needing to try and persuade unarsed stewards with no English that you haven't used your tickets.

I was going to say, then, at least have the decency to apologise profusely later and buy you a beer and say i don't know what came over me. But if they were like that, they wouldn't have done it in the first place.

I find the entitlement of people is staggering.

You poor sod. They took over the company I worked for and ruined it.

CEO at the time was called “Dick Brown” which made be chuckle, unlike his ridiculous share offer.

Quite depressing reading this thread especially today’s posts, sounds like we have some complete c***s in our fan base…..not sure what happened to sticking together.
I didn’t go away to Rome, my sons went and had no issues but I was talking to another lad that’s said he saw Albion fans attacking fellow fans on the concourse after the match ???
I put it on another thread but apparently the day before the match scholars pub got smashed up by Brighton fans fighting each other. The bar maid said they'd never had trouble.like it from other fans .....
