Players comments to the crowd

Recommended Posts

Has a player ever said something to you during a game. eg whilst taking a corner or throw in etc. I remember the Barnsley keeper a few years ago after picking the ball out of the net for the fifth time ( he was smiling ), politely asking " are we nearly finished yet ? "[:$]

Once when sitting a few rows back in the river end, we were defending a corner ,and an old bloke got up and shouted at Mark Rivers ''pull your finger out Rivers you lazy c**t'', to which Rivers replied ''F*** off, you come up here and play!''

yes.. i once commented on the size of Dean Windass Wasitline at Valley Parade when on the front row...

im not telling you his reply on here!

also some grimsby player mouthed something unpleasent to me in the playoff season too after getting a yellow card... I had the last laugh as Phil Mulryne (i think) promtly scored....

i can remember as a kid in the fammily enclosure a QPR player was injured and Andy Impey was doing some keepy uppy in front fo the old family enclosure... one chap shouted "bet u trained all week for that Impey!" to which he replied.. "if i trained id actually be a good player!" hilarious stuff!

Was anyone sitting in the Barclay lower, Snakepit corner, when the Burnley keeper was down injured and Hucks was sitting chatting to the crowd on an advertising hoarding this season?

I got a wry smile and a thumbs up from Hucks a couple of years back, can''t remember what I said though. When we beat Sheffield Utd 1-0 in the champonship winning season I was in the front row of the Barclay one bloke would not leave Kenny alone kept rubbing his belly and shouting Kenny. Towards the end of the first half I thought Kenny was going to lump him, can''t remember him saying anything though.

Years and years ago, the Sunday after a game where we had drawn and Iwan Roberts had missed a peno, we saw him and his wife in the Mad Moose.  As the normal for a Sunday we had enjoyed a few beveages and were feeling a little plucky.  My mate walked up to where Iwan and his wife were sitting and feeling cocky said '' next your going to take a penalty, use your head Iwan''.  Problem was he looks smaller when your watching him from the stands - so when he stood up - my mate hastily decided to ask him what he and his wife were drinking. Did''nt do any good - Iwan laughed and bought us both a beer, Top chap!!

A couple of seasons ago when I was in the Jarrold, it was fairly quiet (as usual in the Jarrold). Hucks had made a meal of a slightly mistimed tackle and rolled around. The defender got booked, and looked really really angry at Hucks who shrugged his shoulders. I shouted to Hucks who was only a few metres away, "keep it up Hucks, you''re really winding him up", he turned and winked and said "I haven''t finished with him yet!". Later in the game more dubious challenges and dubious Hucks reactions and the clown defender got sent off in the last few minutes of the game. Classic moment for me!

!st season after prem relegation, Hucks came to take a corner by the snakepit, was just after half time and this little fat kid went to Hucks and offered him a bite of his hot-dog.............which Hucks gratefully accepted!!!! We laughed our backsides off for ages after that, the kid couldnt believe it!

Many year ago Stuart Pearce was taking a throw in front of the City Stand and got a few comments directed his way in a jovial manner. He turned round and just addressed the block in general with "Bloody farmers" with a little wink.

I used to have my season ticket dead on half way 2 rows from the front in the South Stand so could hear everything! About 4/5 years ago the ball went out for a throw in and a tiny ball girl who could have only been about 8 years old picked up the ball. Frank Sinclair called for her to throw the ball to him and also another player further along the line called for the girl to give him the ball. With two different players wanting the ball the little girl threw the ball to the other player and not Frank Sinclair. Frank Sinclair then started to shout at the little girl. He said '''' You F''ing little C**T, you should have thrown me the F''ing ball you Fing t**t.'''' Obviously this made the little girl cry all because she threw the ball to the other player who was calling for it!!!!!!!

Same match,

Just prior to the second half , Greeno was earnestly explaining to the ballboy behind the goal to give him the ball as quick as possible so to take the goal kicks quickly. Later the match was not going well for City, in spite of being one goal up, Sheffield were bombing shots everywhere bar on target. With a few minutes to go the eager ball boy pounced on the ball and dutifully rushed to return it. Greeno facing him and away from the field silently mouthed "N0, no, nooooo !" and  pretending not see him killed off some time by walking slowly behind the net to pick up a less accessible ball.

The poor little lad looked bewildered and disappointed, at the final whistle Greeno gave him a little hug and a smile and no doubt explained things to him.

I was sat at the front of the City stand for the game against the binners during the 2002/03 season and a fair few of us spent the majority of the first half attempting to wind up Jim Magilton everytime he ran past, as the first half wore on the ball went out for a throw just in front of where I was sitting and Magilton took that as an opportunity to march over and throw a tirade of foul mouthed abuse at the front row of the stand, much to the surprise of one of the stewards who attempted (rather fruitlessly I might add) to calm him down. Sadly we lost 2-0 so I suppose Jim had the last laugh but I will never forget the look on his face. Absolute classic!!!

Went to an away game with Wroxham to Sudbury. Stood in the Sudbury "shed" and some prat thought he was the local joker, kept going on, and on with crap jokes . When play was stopped near the stand, the joker made a comment to a player which shall remain nameless, about his bald head, said player casually walked up to the stand and said "do you want me to come up there and kick your F-ing teeth in? Well F up then!" and casually walked back. The joker was quite for the rest of the game.

against Tranmere they had Challinor (excuse spelling?) who had the longest throw I''ve seen...

...anyway he was near the away dugout and was leaning back on the hoarding when a local from the front row lauched into him about being a freak, useless etc etcChallinor spun the ball on the end of his finger, looked at the bloke and said "well who''s the c##t out of the 2 of us, you''ve paid to watch this freak, and I got paid to come here!!!!", he winked and laughed out loudHis throw-in went straight into the keepers arms (Marshall I think) who still had to jump for itThe bloke in the City Stand''s face was a picture

Back in the good old days Charlton had a goolkeeper called Charlie Wright who used to lean against the uprights or sit down when his team were attacking and if they got a corner he''d come round the back of the goal to have a chat with the locals.   Used to take food and sweets from spectators and then eat when the ball was in the oppositions half.  Top bloke.

I remember Trevor Brooking standing with his foot on the ball near the touchline, waiting to take a free kick, time was running out, his team were winning and he was wasting time in a gentlemanly way, after 30 seconds and no movement, somebody shouted "Brooking are you a c@nt or what?"  - his reply - "No but thank you for asking young man"!

got a mate whos a Man utd fan.. a few years ago he was waiting in the car park of the Post house on Ispwich road for his dad to pick him up from a job... we were playing Sheffield united that evening... they had Michel Vonk, former man city player, in the team.

Vonk had been sent off in the previous season for "doing a number" on Andy Cole...

AS my mate and his dad are walking back to the car they see the sheff utd players, Vonk quite clearly loves himself and is swanning about the car park mobile phone clapmed to his ear... my mate... Proudly wearing his solskjaer utd shirt.. shouts "Its that Dirty blue B*stard Michel Vonk!!!"

im not joking when i say it nearly kicked off in the car park! lol!

A first class response from a very intelligent footballer, with replies like that its not surprising he''s got where he is today.
