The other drums, I guess?

ah your rite i can just see me now banging on on your head,

Personally i think the drums will be missed, sometimes that stadium is as dead as dodo WITH the drums. I think those who are expecting the place rocking all the time are stuck back in the fletcher end. Wembley is a shocker of an example, i mean how can people possibly try and used that as an arguement against the drums. A Wet and cold sunday in early february is not the same as 30,00 people going to wembley for the first time in two decades.

The accoustics are completely different now and the sound does not amplify like it used to. If you stand at one end of the state of the art purpose built corned beef tin you cant hear anything from the other side. The place doesnt bounce like people are expecting it to unless we are 20 points ahead of leeds with 5 minutes to go. G has done his best, a valiant effort but is not a god. Anyone expecting an improvement in atmosphere however is kidding themselves.

Foz

simple, rip the seats up from the east stand and put them half way up the south like the Bevan at Wilderspool. Get the mob in the east COME ON MORAN SORT IT OUT

Im getting the impression that Geordie is kinda like a pied piper figure to the younger generation of wire fans...nothing wrong with that like



Whoever the poster is who renamed me Nutters...I like it



Can i change my user name or do i need to create a new account?

Just trying to make a point G. I quite enjoy joining in from my perch in the East, but people enjoy a game in their own way and don't need 'Hicksy' telling them how to support the team. I would guess there's a fair few of us have been doing it since before he was born!

I did all the jumping around and singing stuff 20 years ago, now I'm more into a sedate cheering, clapping and advising the referee of his mistakes!

By the end of today I most certainly wont be a lady.

You see im getting a 'Tramp Stamp' or as Wires71 calls it a 'Slag Tag' later today

On opening this thread I thought Geordie had died along with Floyd and Swayze. Phew.

As if you don't know how to do either panties.

Blisters on the hand "from drumming". Is that what they call it down your way?

Don't even get me started on jester's hats...

The lad was laughing at some Besiktas fans last night with their faces painted and jesters hats.

"Look dad, you get Balloons in Turkey as well."



Top red as always

Haha - I'm not United but that's brilliant. If only more Wires were as wise as your lad...

The Besiktas fans were the best supporters I think I have ever seen. When everyone of them in the griound did that thing with the hands, then the scarves then the jumping etc it looked bloody amazing.

Ha good on him, evidently the young man has been brought up well. That said about the Turks last night, that was some mighty support chief. Quite impressed It was the entire stadium in unison too, which was nice to see, wonder if we will replicate it at OT in the return leg

.

Imagine the day when Fin comes home to after making new friends in school who are members of the barmy army. Will they turn his head?

turkish football fans are vile,if english fans would have stabbed two travelling fans to death we'd be banned from europe forever,turkey is the bumhole of europe.
i like the way this thread is drifting as geordie now has nearly ten pages,the drum could be coming out of the cupboard for next year,crikey it will be a "sticky" when he announces that he's coming out of retirement

To get slighty back on topic anyone got a trumpet for next season? Do the tune for great escape

is the drum on ebay i want to start a one man band and apear on brittons got talent ?

I'm sure that show's available on t'internet if you search hard enough.

Anyone who thinks Turkish football fans are vile has never been to a football game in Turkey.

I have and they're absolutely brilliant.

An isolated incident involving a mob of "Ingurland Till I Die" Yorkshiremen burning Turkish flags and wiping their ar$e on Turkish notes in Taksim Square is not a benchmark to tar a nation who have some of the most passionate supporters in Europe.

I really really hope not.

Boo, where is the spirit of 1966 mate, keep st George in my heart etc?







True, very dull and lacks any wit, or imagination. Although you're not on your own, no one has any good chants in RL.

claptrap,two innocent middle aged family men stabbed to death are hardly hardcore "ingurland" hooligans.all clubs have an element of troublemakers and i have travelled to enough grounds to know trouble is not far away in england or abroad,every time an english club goes to turkey there is trouble of varying degrees and to try to blame it on england fans alone is way off the mark.

I wonder if those who bait the Turkish realise they were a vital ally in the Crimean war.

i wonder if the turks who bait the english even think about such former alliances.
