Can anyone tell me where I can sit in the stadium 20:45 - Feb 24 with 5884 viewsCheltenham_Blue

Where the people around me actually know about football? That 10 minute spell in the 2nd half where Brum were pressing was unbearable.

"Nooooooo not backwards!! Forward!!!"
"Go to him Wolfie"
"What the F8ck???"
"Quicker!! Too Slow"
Etc. Etc. Etc.

"Sarmiento and Hutchinson are alright, but they both lack any sort of end product".

We laughed.

We had a woman behind us today, who isn't usually there, say this when we were defending our box and couldn't quite get it clear for a minute or so.

"I'm glad I don't have a season ticket any more so I don't have to watch this rubbish."

She was at it all game. My blood was boiling.

"Hutchinson is the only one who seems to know what he's doing." Another gem.

I did pipe up when the guy behind me kept shouting "Go to him Wolfie".
I instinctively shouted "Don't you f8cking dare go to him Wolfie"

I'll be honest, it pretty much accidentally fell out of my mouth.

Not many places these days.

We have to put up with some absolute morons behind us who fortunately haven’t been there as often this year, presumably because they have less to moan about.

They’re the usual “stop messing about with it at the back” guys and then shout “don’t just hoof it” when we do have to go long.

I did have a little smile when one of them said we’re so boring, about 45 seconds before Sarmiento then scored.

They’ve always been here…both in the stadium, and the edgelords that don’t attend games and spout sh1te on here *cough Frimley *

Wait till we hit the PL and the big time mate, you’ll be sat next to a Chinese tourist decked out in Armani and a camera bigger than those broadcasting the game.

It really is amazing isn't it? Unfortunately it has always been the case. Football can be a very frustrating thing to watch because most of what your team does counts for nothing. Therefore if you just sit back and moan about everything then most of the time you'll be 'proved right' because a goal won't come. The 'No, not backwards' shout has irritated me for decades but it will never stop. Some people are just clueless. We've lost 4 in 34 and we're at least 16 points above everyone not getting a parachute payment yet there are still people that think they know better than the coaching team we've got.

The people around me in West Stand Steerage GG are good - in fact some of the best I’ve sat with over the years. The chap next to me takes against players at times, Ladapo now Clarke, but he’s very quiet about it and not all the time.

If it's any consolation, I've had to sit with home fans at QPR too many times and their fans seem to be the worst for this. They also leave the ground earliest. Although Swindon was remarkable for adults that behaved like children and children that seemed to have the wisdom of sages.

I made the 400 mile round trip from Sheffield to sit in the SBR Upper behind a bloke moaning about Axel all game suggesting he was slow , not interested , had no pace and definitely didn’t deserve MoM

When my dad used to say similar about I dunno, Kevin Wilson or John Deehan or whoever, he would then try to take credit for somehow psychically-motivating them into scoring.

In the spirit of reconciliation and happiness at the end of the Banter Era (RIP) and as a result of promotion I have cleared out my ignore list. Look forwards to reading your posts!

Bloke behind me in block O had one line - what the hell was that? I had to advise him if he didn't have anything positive to say he should keep his trap shut. Seemed to do the trick until we scored the second when he couldn't resist "you've got to admit we have been poor" . I don't get to PR much but this time was struck by the negativity. Spoilt by success or just natural moaners?

No. The best are clearly in the Cobbold B. Best of all worlds. Singing to the right and mostly intelligence all around. And we had a good view of 3 goals yesterday. Seats space is bigger too that in the West stand. The only downside being we can't see the big screen.

I sometimes complain when I see something that I don't think should happen. To be honest, it's mostly to do with our defenders (seemingly) not talking to each other. However I also clap and I often find I'm the only one, when there's a sublime pass or run, or attempt at something that doesn't quite work.
But mostly I am entertained.
There's not many around me who shout daft stuff, but this has just made me think,
- maybe it's me?!!

Seems quite widespread doesn't it.

I used to be a bit like this when i was a younger supporter although not to some of the extreme extent we see here. For me, it was frustration when things weren't going well and an anxiety and impatience if the winning goal was not earlier in the game. You start looking for a target to try and justify the reasons things weren't going well. If we then turned things round, it would all just dissipate. If we didn't, then you'd still see things totally differently in the cold light of day.

As an older fan, i'm much more analytical and patient and views on players are decided in the long-term, not the short-term.

I wonder if what is described here is similar to how I used experience things.

I think you’ll find Leicester and Leeds are not receiving parachute payments but I agree with your point.

Couldn't agree more, even the guy who shouts "Down the line" at every throw in or "Want it xxxx (players name)" seems to have piped down lately.

My mate that I go with is one of them. Even after to years of playing this way and doing it successfully he can't get used to it.

His problem is that he finds the 'titting around at the back' too nerve wracking and just wants us to get it away to 'safety'.

Funny thing is he acknowledges that both the results and quality of football is much better now, it's just that his heart can't take it.
