I’ve heard of tail-gaiting but as this describes it when a car is too close behind you. I’ve even heard it in other scenarios but never to do with a football ground. Is the urban dictionary ‘street talk’. Blud…fam;)

I'm old and it will always be jibbing to me.

Tailgating sounds too American

We used to do it in the 70's to get in the Kippax but it didn't have a name.
It was simply, "Can I go between your legs mr.?"
Ran into my Grandad once and he let two of us in.

Did he have legs that “couldn’t stop a pig in ‘entry”;)

Be warned!
New law comes in this weekend

Unauthorised Entry to Football Matches Act 2026 officially comes into force this weekend in England and Wales, specifically timed to coincide with the Carabao Cup Final
Conviction for jibbing at a designated football match can lead to:

• Football Banning Orders: A court-imposed ban preventing attendance at any professional football match for a period typically ranging from 3 to 10 years.
• Fines: Financial penalties of up to £1,000.
• Criminal Record: As a specific criminal offence, a conviction will result in a permanent criminal record.

Spoil sports…

I need my teeth doing, if I sneak in Sunday will I get hotel and free dental care?

In the Kippax it was called ‘doubling up’ but I also remember lads crawling under or jumping straight over the turnstiles.

So it was you who started that away at Stoke?

Not quite but I sure as anything joined in. Apart from what happened to @blue b4 the moon ’s lad it was a good laugh. :-)

at half time when supporting the likes of West Ham/Spurs is jibbing out allowed

It's just too easy at Wembley.
I've don't it twice even with a ticket just to prove to my mate how easy it is

That is so annoying.
Last years FA cup final, as I got to the first line of stewards I realised my 'wallet' had been dumped off my phone and as such I had no ticket.
I blagged it past all the stewards and thought I'd jib in behind my mate.
Nope. Couldn't get 2 of us through the turnstile.
No problem i thought, I'll jib in behind his son, nope again.
I had to leg it round to the City help desk and get a paper ticket.
How is it so easy and yet numb nuts here can't do it ?

I climbed up a wall and was straddling the razor wire when I here's an 'Oi what you doing bellowed at me from below.
'Have a fuckin guess' was my reply'. The bloke laughed and then backed his van upto the wall for me to jump down on.
Last game at Maine Road.

Did you get in ?

Did you get in ?

No. Too pissed and that wire and spikes looked brutal.

We had to get by anyway we could in those days mate. Personally, I wouldn't have crossed that line, but each to their own.

The one and only time i jibbed in was in 2011 FA cup final. I was behind an old pal @eversince 76 and i even had a ticket!

Stewards were busy chatting or looking at their phones so when Eric went through turnstile i pushed up and went through on same turnstile click. Dozy twats didn't even notice a 6-1 big ugly **** almost back scuttling a 5-6 Dutch dwarf. Talk about Twins! - "I'll be back!" As Arnie once said. Lol.

Great occasion that mate, especially singing and dancing non stop for about 2 hours in Green Man post game. Yaya, Yaya Yaya, "Ohh, Balotelli" etc.

Great occasion, great memories: )
