FIGHT AND WIN!

Isn't that Forest Green Rovers club motto?

Yeah clearly!

Yep.

Absolutely priceless

Absolutely priceless

They really don't get it do they? Plastic ultras. You wanna see proper ones got to Napoli. Been there a couple of times with mates who are fans, and Dortmund too. Napoli are proper nutters. I'd advise anyone who can afford it to go out there for a game.

Best clip of fans arriving at a station ever- proper football away day.

Would like to put both Telford and Harriers fans for attempting the Iceland Clap. About 20 Telford fans were doing it so about 10 Harriers fans responded by doing it. Its really not impressive if you have 30 fans at most doing it.

Bit like us at Slimbridge in the county cup that time.

Yep the yanks just really don't get it when it comes to ''chanting''

 

[rudebwoyben]

They haven't got the tone of voice right for either chant. The first one should sound like they're taunting the opposition fans and the second one should send defiant and belligerent.

Labelling Iceland Clap tinpot as there is video evidence of Middlesbrough doing it in 2013....not that we had a lot to clap about then....however thinking about it the Boro Clap sounds like an STD...maybe should just let it lie

I seem to remember reading somewhere that the Iceland chant was brought to Iceland by Motherwell fans who were there for some European match or other.

Genuinely believe this is what we sound like to any football fan east of the Rhine.

Noble may have dodgy taste in haircuts but I have no shadow of a doubt he'll be regarded as the best player in this league come the end of the season.

Went to a MLS match recently and the most creative chant was...

BEAT LA! BEAT LA! ETC ETC ETC ETC ETC ETC

There are videos of European teams doing it 15 years ago. All the Motherwell and Boro claims are just silly.

I was the only away fan at my team's FA Vase on Friday evening.

Well, it's less tinpot than keeping our current away end.

Not that I actually care. Actually, I'll probably miss it when it's gone.

Jesus that's like something from non league, more like a paddock than a terrace

Thought it was bad enough without realising there was a few acres of yellow hatching separating you from the pitch!

That Barnet stand is alright. Certainly has a flat pack feel to it, but it's a decent modest terrace with proper acoustics.

Joe Hart written 'John' Hart in the official teamsheet of Atalanta-Torino.

His full name is Charles Joseph John Hart.

Correct. Everyone refers to him as Joe Hart though. Little bit embarrassing for Torino.

 

[Sparrow]

I'm struggling to see why that is tinpot.


I remember when this thread was good.

 

[Harrier94]

I know Salford are very tinpot already but after their first defeat of the season yesterday this was their match report.

http://www.pitchero.com/clubs/salfordcityfc/teams/72445/match-centre/1-2183308
They seemed to be effected by a mystery bug that wasn't mentioned at all before the match.
"An unusually lack-lustre first-half performance was explained by 9 of the starting 11 suffering from the dehydrating after effects of a bug"

"The Ammies were leaving too much space for their opponents - courtesy of that energy sapping little bug "

Then they seemed to forget that a two footed challenge from behind is a red card no matter where you are on the pitch

" Skipper Simon Grand put in a challenge on Dieseruvwe, tight to the touchline on the right. With the Harriers’ man down as if poleaxed Grand protested his innocence to little avail as the referee produced Salford’s first red card of the season. It wasn’t a great challenge but the consensus amongst those more handily placed to view was that a yellow card would probably have sufficed."

They also didn't seem to like the fact they kicked us to the floor plenty of times.

"As for Kidderminster – they are a good footballing side with several players who look outstanding at this level of the game. They deserved the points today but it’s shame that their pacey, attacking football is tempered by a level of “gamesmanship” that strays a fair way beyond the acceptable. The Harriers may well be able to chase a quick return to the National League this season but they’re going to have to keep an eye out for karma as they go along…"

One of the most tinpot clubs I've seen who don't seem to like being defeated.

Their forum is even worse than their official site

 

[Chris FGR]

That's their official report? Fucking hell.

 

[Harrier94]

That's their official report? Fucking hell.

Yep, if it was a fans report I'd have understood. I think the club and fans is starting to believe they are one of the biggest clubs in the world and should just win every game.

I wonder how the karmic forces of the universe look upon bored millionaires buying a club, discarding its identity whilst turning it into a media circus then financially doping its way through the leagues?
