Football Stories pt. II

Discussion in 'Off Topic' started by beyondmeasure, Nov 26, 2013.

  1. As a big footy fan (soccer!) I enjoy listening to fans stories from following your teams. As a big Sheffield Wednesday fan who travels home and away I have my fair share if stories, good and bad. Anyone who doesn't know much about Wednesday, we were a massive club but due to debt we've been crap for 10 years after relegations.

    I once went to watch us play Exeter away on my own 3 days before Christmas. Now Exeter averaged 2,500 fans a game that season, we averaged 24,000 (best in the league) so you can see the mismatch in size there. I set off at 6am, reached Exeter at 2:50, 10 minutes before KO, I was stood on an uncovered stand where it snowed all game, we lost 5-1 and i arrived home at 4am the following day after the snow meant all the major routes home were shut. Lovely memories!

    What are your football stories, good or bad? What funny chants have you sang? What do you love about following your team? I'll share more if anyone is interested 
     
  2. I have a two first place fantasy football teams. Both in 10team leagues and with a few weeks left I'm almost guaranteed to make the playoffs. My favorite team is the patriots and although they don't play soccer they are really good at football.

  8. They are crap, both Wednesday and United. But at least people here don't sell out. We are proud 
     
  9. We have a fan nicknamed 'fishcake', putting it kindly he's a little simple. We were on a coach to Plymouth, another 7 hour trip. He decided to choose this journey to sing a chant that goes;

    Number one is Roland Nilsson,
    And number two is Roland Nilsson,
    And number three ...

    (Roland Nilsson is a legend here, he was the best right back in the world in the 1990's)

    He got to number 300 . Fair to say he drove the coach insane!!

  19. Sheffield Wednesday massacre. Any fan would know it. Loads of people died from being squished during the home match against liverpool because they tried to fit too many people into the stadium.
