Funniest comment you’ve heard at a City game

[nmc]

Remember a cup game at Brentford - a Saturday - think the game was called off in the week. Franny was waiting for the team bus looking like a cross between DelBoy and a member of the Stylistics - white collared shirt, patent leather slip on shoes and as the Team arrive Dibble is first off the coach - having been all over the press in the week for shagging a bar maid... City Fan ‘how’s the birds Dibs’. Dibble ‘fuck off’. Franny ‘charming!’

Ipswich at home 97/98 ish shocking game into injury time we were losing and Ipswich trying to keep possession in the corner of the kippax by the North stand. Tony Vaughan flew into the Ipswich player and the enraged Ipswich fans started shouting "off off off " at which point half the Kippax rose as one to chant off off off as well. Summed up the times for me !

Ipswich away early 70s. In the seats opposite the main stand (courtesy of Helen the Bell), and Kevin Beattie commits a bad foul on a City player and gets booked. One of the City fans (Dave the Ripper- most people knew him) shouts out "you dirty Suff-Fucker!
Even the coppers in front joined in pissing themselves laughing.

Sheff United away early 90s I think. They were taking a short corner and someone shouted "2 across" and someone piped up and replied "how many letters?". Still makes me chuckle.

Brilliant.

During the dreadful Pearce era it was yet another awful game of the worst kind of football imaginable and I overheard two guys talking behind me, one guy had brought his young son with him and the guy next to him said to the kid "we haven't seen you here before" and the Dad replied with "no, he's been naughty this week that's why I brought him!"

It gave me and several others around me a bit of a chuckle.

Sometime in the 90s when in the lower divisions. Announcer over the tannoy during a break in the game, "Just to let you know our next home game a week on Saturday will be Southend United" This was followed by loud groans from round the ground, then the reply came over, "Come on now lads, lets have a bit of enthusiasm"!

One of the best I heard was at Edgeley Park one Friday night as county was passing the ball around the field. "Never mind the football gerrit in the fuckin air"
