Southampton fans coming out today

Why they going on like they're plucky underdogs, like Lincoln or Salford or something ? They've been top division fixture most of of the time I've watched football, same up and downs as everyone, beat us regularly in the league.

You'd think they'd never seen Wembley before. Pathetic.

They are shit. One trophy in their history. That's why mate.
 
Their biggest game in 50 years, not even our biggest in the last 50 days, infact, not even our second biggest. So that should tell you everything about what to expect. Anybody thinking or expecting we'd be up for it as much as them is a moron, they were always going to be louder than us today.

I was disappointed with their fans tbh. Their song repertoire consisted of marching in, "yellows" and telling us how shit our fans were, that was it. If that was our biggest game in 50 years and thats all we could come up with, i'd be majorly disappointed with our fanbase. Comical how long it took the majority to realise the offside goal was offside. Im sure some were still celebrating after we had restarted play.

Not their biggest game in 50 years - they've played in an FA Cup final and two League Cup finals since 1976. And you could argue that the playoff final they won a couple of years ago was a bigger game than this SF.

But I get exactly where you're coming from.

Lots of verbal from them walking around after a good few trying to start off then a train load of TGB’s (thick geordie bastards) to endure on our very delayed train home.
Leeds in the final will be incident heavy for sure.
 
I've always hated those scrotes. I shipped out of Southampton a few times in the seventies and early eighties and always found the locals ashore and the ones who worked onboard wankers. They call one another mush all the time too, like we call one another mate.
Many years later i drydocked in Southampton. About thirty of us went ashore, a few women amongst us and ended up in a club called flares that played seventies music. One of our blokes was standing with two stewardesses when three local cretins started pestering them which led to them threatening to fill the bloke in when he told them to leave the women alone. Horrible bullies, they thought he was alone with his wife and her friend. Word quickly got around and we got together and they soon realised they'd picked on the wrong people. They got told in no uncertain terms to leave the club or they were getting tuned in. They fucking hated it but had no option so off they went, tails between their legs.
They're called scummers for a reason and the name suits them perfectly.

It’s actually quite a rough town, certainly by Home Counties’ standards. Not as rough as Portsmouth though.

Salford back in the day was lively when the docks were thriving. I had many a great day and night on the dock road at the Clowes, Trafford and Salisbury pubs, also the Regency around the corner.

Salford pubs were definitely the toughest in Greater Manchester for many years.

Thinking about it, Plymouth, Dover and Hull are all rough towns too. Lots of rough boozers, although many now closed, of course.

I lived in Dover from 1987 until 1992. It had a population of 40,000 at the time which swelled with the huge influx of channel tunnel workers. I found it a great little town and made many friends there, but as you say it could be rough. Raffles, Images and Nu Age clubs often had plenty of battles inside and out. I became friends with a few well known faces there so thankfully didn't have too many problems but if i did it soon got sorted.
