Concourse Singing

I am sure this violence you advocate will teach them respect

You should try it and let us know how you get on.

I am sure these young lads will simply take the slap.

Maybe a quiet word is the answer, inform them, show them what their actions are doing. You say constantly knocking over an older gentleman. Did they really, you know, knock him over constantly.

I doubt it very much.

I am quite sure they caused the old boy a lot of problems without really, you know, knocking him over constantly.
Do you go to away matches? I suppose you've never seen them form a large hollow circle, pints held oft jumping up and down preventing people getting past, sloshing beer all over the place without any thought for the elderly, disabled, females or young families?
It happens, don't defend it.

Space, at Watford.

What space was there?

At least tell it as it really is.

It happens at every away game regardless of space.

Were you at West Brom for that Christmas game when it kicked-off on the concourse at Half Time?
Idiots bouncing around and then taking offence when asked to pack-it in?

Yeah it was being done where the queues were for food and drink - most concourses don't have much space, only Arsenal or Wembley, and surprisingly when not crammed it it doesn't happen.

Not missed many away game besides Covid in the last 10 or so years so that argument is out of the window.

These are young people whose attendance at games is way different to ours, I am 51 so have seen most things.

Too many people quick to moan about them

Let them have their fun. If you don't like it, stay away.

Easily done in the main.

Why not get in early like they want you all to. Sit in your seat and wait for the pre match entertainment.
 
Don't mind singing on the concourse but it's become nothing but a get me on video thing, let's throw our beer all over each other like proper lads and make sure you get my stone island badge in the video hahaha. Helmets.

DH. You're family must be delighted to know they could rely on you if thoughtless drunks shove them around. NOT.
'FFS get a grip mum and stop crying. They are only having a bit of fun. As soon as they go to their seats l will get some medical aid for you and your grandkids. Broken legs on young kids take no time to heal'???

Don't you worry about my family and me pal.

I'm sure our little Tim will tell you he is OK. His legs are a bit fucked after getting them broken at Ninian Park during a jump around.

(Ninian Park is Cardiff City's ground, save you having to Google it)

Sorry meant to type 'was'

It was a traumatic day. Little Tim has never been the same

It might have been the day concourse singing started.

It all became a blur as we built a splint with some rolled up match programmes and scarves

People singing AND having pints? At the football?

Bang out of order.

Why do people come out with shit like this and gets likes!

It's not about drinking and singing, it's about having a bit of respect for fellow fans.

Not everyone is a bloke out with his mates for a piss up and a laugh. There is a mix of society at games with 1 thing in common, watching City.

There will probably be a Dad with young Children or a Family or Older people, Women whoever, there for the Match wanting to get refreshments, use the toilets whatever.
No way should we be reading posts of Blue on Blue and general Shithouse behaviour.

Have a sing and a drink but don't think the concourse and Stand belongs to your little fuckin group because it doesn't.

Maybe the antiquated rule of drinking on the concourse only doesn't help but as a football fan we're used to be treated like morons.

You say the one thing in common is watching City, I not sure.

Some come here to tell people how to behave.

I have been dragged into it and I know my replies have added to it here.

The problems are many.

The grounds are not good enough in the main. Concourses are shit, service is shit.

The times of games are shit, they contribute as late kick offs give more time to drink etc

The excitement these young lads have also contributes. For years tickets have been difficult to get for our younger fans. Now with the 5% 18-24 tickets they are getting more and i believe covid has also helped availability.

Most of these lads are not out to hurt anyone or cause trouble. I am not having that.

Under 25s do on the Concourse what they wouldn't get away with in a pub like chucking their beer all over the place. You need a fucking boat to to cross the Concourse after every away game.

If you respect your fellow Blue fair play but not everyone does especially after a skinful or whatever.
No one is saying its all the young lads pissing about, its the ones who go too far no matter what age they are.

Think we both agree there is no consideration for the football fan by the authorities. Facilities at some grounds are appalling and would not be allowed in other sections of society.

The concourse at OT for 1, you never see that on the endless Sky adds of the Theatre of Dreams do you, fuckin death trap that place.
