Funniest comment you’ve heard at a City game

[RiversideBlue]

During a stop in play for an injury near us some bloke randomly shouts "ref, you're a fuckin wanker" the ref turns around and with a bow "thank you". Fair play to him!

Not a comment but the bloke in the Platt Lane who brought a raw chicken to games and stood up working its legs. Total fruit loop.

“Fucking hell ref. Are you blind. Thatcher’s barely touched him. Terrible decision!”

Only got a yellow card didn't he? In which case it really was a terrible decision

It was one of my first matches at Maine Road in the early-1960s, the crowd felt that a visting player had handled the ball. 'Ref, fingerprint that ball!' said a voice in the crowd.

Another one when a blatant handball wasn't given was "Bloody hell ref he took the bleeding lace out of it".

When Joe Corrigan first got into the City team and was regularly error prone. "You're like Cinderella Corrigan. Always late for the ball" and "You're like Dracula Corrigan. Scared of bloody crosses."

Oxford away, mid/late 80s.

Oxford fans chanted the Hovis advert to us, as many a southern side did to northern sides at the time.

City fans immediately responded with the theme from the Archers.

North Stand circa 1976 old chap behind me, referee Jack Taylor "get back to your butchers shop"

Chatting this season to a bloke who sits in front of us in CLB3 called Mike. Aware he goes to most aways, so asked if he had gone to a recent game (forget who we were playing). 'No' said Mike, 'I didn't actually, I had something else on but can't remember what it was.' After a bit more umming and ahhing, Mrs Mike was kindly able to assist with 7 words that brought our little chat to a decidedly chilling finale - 'He was at his eldest daughter's wedding!'

Yes I remember that now. As if each one was trying to out do the last. Those things took some blowing up but l never saw anyone doing the actual blowing. No smutty remarks please;)
