[Albion] Fans Forum

[Black Rod]

Ever since that fan wrote a poem about not being able to share his season ticket a few seasons ago, Cantor has made it very clear at the start of each forum that there are to be no long introductions

Which is a shame because they were often the best bit

 

[Easy 10]

Dan's actually a really nice guy who has probably achieved a lot more in his life than you have, smug in your oh so 'hilario' wordplay on an internet forum, playing to the usual suspects. He has also had a fair few struggles in his life, so maybe labelling someone you don't know as a 'miserable, time wasting cockspangle' or a 'weirdo' just for the lols isn't a great look. He's also 100% diehard Albion, home and away every season. Thankfully he doesn't waste his life posting on here, and so will never know of your juvenile attack on a fellow Albion fan. Play nice, there's no need for it.

Sorry if he's your mate, but if someone goes there and uses that opportunity to ask a shittily-phrased, loaded question to the CEO, then I'm going to call it out however I see fit, thanks.

I'm sure he's a lovely fella, and as a fellow die-hard highly achieving Albion fan I'm sure we'd have plenty of common ground. But he clearly hadn't read the room. Ask a challenging specific question by all means, but by floating that question and expecting Barber to reel off several negatives about BHAFC when we are enjoying the greatest spell in our history is at best naive, at worst mischievous shit-stirring.

Barber's response was perfect. Maybe you should have a word.

And 'the way you saw fit' was a juvenile, nasty personal attack. What does that say about you? I wouldn't for a second deny that his question was ridiculous btw.

 

[Kuipers Supporters Club]

What a complete and utter THROBBER that bearded ponytailed (NATCH) "NSK" weirdo was. "Name 3 negative things about the club ??" Kinell.

Well, top of the list mate, number 1, is probably YOU. (God I wish Barber had come back with that).

F*ck off back to your real ales and your lentil support group, you miserablist timewasting cockspangle.

Thinking more about this. NSK is one of the weirdest things at the Albion.

Constantly refuse to join in with other songs, home or away which creates the split across the North Stand.

Sound like a bunch of gatekeeping wankers.

Ohhh were in a little special group and you have to play by our rules to have fun. Grow up.

Weird is not the right word. They are a bunch of idiots in my opinion.

They have a massively high opinion of themselves and feel they are above all of us genuine Albion supporters.

I’ve been on the end of foul abuse for daring to start our own chants both at The Amex and away from home and I personally know of quite a few people that have asked to be relocated from that section of the North Stand because of issues with NSK and a certain female member of the group.

I’m afraid the question asked yesterday pretty much summed them up. Firstly pointing out how great they were and then asking a question that made him look as stupid as the skirt he tends to wear to games.

As a new North Stand STH, may I ask where these lot sit?

 

[severnside gull]

It was not a clumsy question about the Gilmour situation. I am at a loss as to why he seems to be expendable - albeit according to Romano. I don't know anyone who wants him to leave.

From what has been published (hardly reliable I know) it would appear to be Gilmour pushing for the move.

Block C back rows and under police box.

Preach.
When at away games I dread being near them. Their attitude of we are better than everyone else does my head in

Phew, nowhere near them.

Oh dear, was it you?

There really is a 'type' at these things, isn't there!?

Why do people feel the need to state their credentials when they ask a question?

You are right. They are the the types who come in wheelchairs, conquer their anxiety fears to ask questions, rush in straight from work, beg parents to bring them, wear the stripes to a forum and make the effort to support a club event, ask Barber questions about the club and Fabian about everything. A chance to see and hear our impressive new young coach live, appreciate his mastery of English, enjoy his sense of humour and stay to shake his hand, wish him well, take a selfie, get something autographed. I know I mocked a couple for not really reading the room in tone or content, but they made the effort. It was an enjoyable evening for for all those certain 'types' despite £11+ for a burrito and a diet coke. And there's no 'credentials' either. It's part of the fun that Raymond from Seagulls over London is allowed to open the show. But it's straight to the questions these days.

 

[Hugo Rune]

Too small.

A pleasurable summer evening stroll revealed the pocket of land to be around 80m x 300m x 140m x 300m. +/- 5m.

You could certainly plonk a mini-Amex on it. I’m not sure how much over 10k capacity you’d get. And you’d obviously need stands with some serious gradients which is no bad thing in my book.

mid to late 30s with pink/purple hair?

I don't particularly care tbh. Ask a stupid question like that and you're fair game IMO.
Whether he reads it or not, I'm sure he'll survive. I've been called far worse online, and still managed to carry on with my day without clutching at pearls.

 

[WhingForPresident]

Agreed, I felt the same way about the "do you feel ready to take on Everton" question. In what world is Fabi going to say "no"?

You say that...

Also which shows that you were not listening as it was actually about him not having a smart phone and having to pay £30 extra every season for a photocard season ticket and that there was a new charge for printing a ticket at home which had previously been free.
I know because i was there that night and, even though it seemed to go down quite well in the room, that and some of the other questions asked means i have not been back since!

Well said.

Easy to mock from afar……

I was also there, and after the first verse it did not go down well, at least in vicinity I was sitting….
