We’ve got some youngish lads behind us (early 20’s) one particularly has it in for Waghorn but also calls Dabo a “lazy prick” and is just constantly negative.

Can’t imagine how bad it’s going to get when we do inevitably have a bad game or two. I think the trouble is a lot of us in our 20’s have grown up with the atmosphere being pretty much constantly negative that some have found it difficult to drop that as the default setting.

I’m in my 40s and I can assure you that negativity has been a consistent feature of my experience watching the city too.
My parents moan so much about/at football that I genuinely don’t know why they bother.

That ref was awful one of those you could just see giving Posh a sloppy penalty.
Best defender Peterborough had.

Was great to see the CBS Arena so full and rocking last night but I nearly snapped at the guy sitting behind me.

For some inexplicable reason he had taken against Ian Maatsen, slagging him of at every opportunity. Without exaggeration he called him 'the work experience boy' every time he was on the ball. Moaning he never tackles (mental) shouting he should stick to his age group!?!

Even stated he had ment his cut back for the goal as shot.

The mind boggles what people like that get from going to a match, fancy slagging off your own player when you are 3 nil up and top of the league.

Anyone else stuck near a clueless boob?

Its always the same. These fans only come and watch/support when the team are playing well or on a good run. And criticise when the odd ball goes astray or a player makes an honest mistake. Its annoying but unfortunately we have to put up with these plebs. As the saying goes 'you pays your money' etc etc.
Just knock him out he might get the picture

I've got some right cunts sat by me, dont watch the match and talk about utter fucking nonsense. Bloke and a woman, they ain't a couple but I reckon they are shagging. The kids they drag along with them ain't much better, feel sorry for them as they get ignored as their 'parents' act like they're on a fucking dating show.

My daughter came out on Friday moaning about the kid sat behind her, kicking her seat, “talking absolute nonsense for 90 minutes non stop”. So proud of her, she’s a proper fan

I don't mind that too much, as I just think that 'well it's their first game so hey ho.'

However at the Forest game some pricks did exactly that on the way in. Then proceeded to leave the same way about 5 minutes before half time.

Got me in a right fluffery buffery.

People who spend the entire game waving to their mate. The stadiums two thirds full mate just go sit by them.

Guy on the end of my row on Friday, walk up the steps “excuse me mate” … nothing “excuse me” …. Nothing *vague motioning that I’d like to get past*, finally drags his fat ass up so we can get past. “Thanks”. As I pass “Aren’t you going to say thank you! It’s free you know!!!!”

Fucking cloth eared prick.

And they shout their name about 15 times. Stupid thing is they do all that just to stick their thumb up when they’ve been noticed. Worth it?

How shall I say this? There is a very, very large guy at then end of my row and when he stands up to letyou pass there's still hardly any room to get passed. You almost feel like you are toppling into the row below before you get passed him.

When Dacosta was playing early in the season there was an irish family at one game (I think It was reading) and they gave him dog’s abuse everytime he got the ball and constantly criticised him for not taking on his man, they clearly had travelled a long way to see the game tbf to them , but didn’t support the team at all , even seemed annoyed when we scored we hadn’t done so earlier

I like a drink as much as the next man, but last few games I've not bothered at half time, given the quality on the pitch.

The queues are mahoosive if you stay until the whistle. Feel the club might be missing out on some revenue with the bar situation.

Anyone remember the roving bottle sellers? Bring 'em back.

I was in the scaredy cat Cov-id Block 31.

To my left was a bloke on his own who never joined in any song or showed any hint of enjoyment throughout the game. When I jumped up at the second goal i glanced across and he clapped half heartedly twice, without any expression on his face. Glanced at his watch several times halfway through the second half , got a pie and left with 15 minutes left. Very odd behaviour. Almost as if he was serving community service!

I thought Maatsen had his best game for us. He is improving with every game. I like the lad and he has a lot of potential. I thought his size may be a negative factor, but he holds his own.

Not so much a moaning fan but I had some guy behind me against Peterborough who would pick out a distinctive feature on an opposing player and shout it towards them. We were close to the pitch.

E.g. he constantly shouted "beard" at their RW and "ponytail" at their GK. Part of me wanted beard to score a consolation

Recall one of our lot at Villa Park shouting "Big Nose" to Andy Townsend, and then "Ah! He looked!" We all cracked up at that one.
