Lessingham Canary 99 Posted August 3, 2016 So a call to the so called "yellow army" who frequent this forum, how many of you will be at Blackburn on Saturday? (wonder how many will even visit Carrow Road this season) I will be there, always am, and that is not me being clever, but how many will really be supporting the boy''s come Saturday, if you are up for it, and it is a big call, show yourself on here, OTBC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duncan Edwards 2,223 Posted August 3, 2016 I''ll be there. Beating the club.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
king canary 7,580 Posted August 3, 2016 I won''t, because quite frankly I can''t be arsed dragging myself all the way to Blackburn. I''ll be at Carrow Road though, just like I''ve been the last 15 seasons... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoola Han Solo 448 Posted August 3, 2016 Nah. I think I''ll just stay at home and watch the game on my radio, ring up Canary Call and post my moaning thoughts on this message board. Well, at least I would if I was like a lot of the miserable sods on this board.Instead, I''ll be at most games supporting the club and players and trying to find positives where I can. I might moan a bit, but the enjoyment of watching my team through the ups and down of a season is one I thoroughly enjoy and have done for several years now.

king canary 7,580 Posted August 3, 2016 This caricature that fans who moan on here don''t go to games and aren''t proper supporters is just a bit silly. I''ve been pretty down on our performance over the last 12 months yet I''m a season ticket holder who attends every home game and 3-4 away games a season. I''ll support the team when I''m in the stadium (although I fully reserve my right to boo at the end of a game if they''ve been shit) but I don''t have to blindly clap along and be delighted at every aspect of what we do.

Ginja 26 Posted August 3, 2016 Blackburn is too far for me really. I''m looking at Birmingham away for my first game of the season. The one nice thing about dropping to the Championship is there are closer away days to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Highland Canary 76 Posted August 3, 2016 I''ll be there as always and will report back. Not been since the 2012 defeat when I vaguely seem to remember Lambo going three at the back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not been since the 2012 defeat when I vaguely seem to remember Lambo going three at the back.[/quote]Yeah pretty sure I was there for that one. Wasn''t it one of Howson''s early performances for us? We looked a bit all over the place in that game if I remember correctly.As for the OP, I''m really looking forward to this season, OTBC! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agree, if going to let the manager / board / team know disappointed no harm in doing it after a poor performance that warrants it, did it myself at Southampton in the Houghton era.

Lessingham Canary 99 Posted August 3, 2016 Well done LDC and MJ, then you guys usually find the positives anyway.Apples in my days up there it Meadowbank or Ferranti we had to look forward to, you ought to head East for your real football and watch Linlithgow Rose or Broxburn, # mans football ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Faded Jaded Semi Plastic SOB 1,020 Posted August 3, 2016 I tend not to travel way much these days, followed Norwich up and down the country in my young days. Will be a every home game assuming nothing untoward happens to me!!....... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,513 Posted August 3, 2016 I shall be a plastic for away games again this season. First away game was wolves in 1971. Since then my away record has fluctuated from AST to no games at all due to my prevailing circumstances. I will be there in spirit from my armchair where I will drink bovril from my plastic cup to commemorate my latest circumstances.So make sure you give a happy clap from me. No boos though....
