ncfcstar 292 Posted August 13, 2008 I''m guessing you haven''t sat in the Jarrold Mr. C, the toilets are definitely not shiny, it''s like a concrete jungle under the stand.I sit there, have my season ticket there, and I take offence by what you say, because no offence, I think the area I sit in sing as much as the Barclay and SnakePit. Both these areas have a reputation which far exceeds what they are really like, unoriginal and for 85/90% of the time silent. Many of you just like to claim you are better than the rest of the stadium, when realistically you are not, in fact I find myself laughing at the Barclay more often than not for the embarrassing chants that they come up with.

A couple of my mates have season tickets in there and they don`t agree it`s getting better, far from it. I`ve been in there 6-7 times in the last couple of seasons and it`s got worse every game, culminating in 6 of us at the "must-win" QPR game last season being surrounded by 100 or so mutes bedecked head to toe in yellow and green giving us evils or looking petrified because we were joining in with the Barclay/Snakepits songs at full decibel. Had we lost that game we would almost certainly have been relegated and i honestly don`t think these people were even aware of it. If we were all like that the place would have been a morgue, but then i suppose they had more important things on their minds such as which flavour pie to have at half time, or whether that was Stephen Fry next to Delia over in the main stand......

[:D] [/quote]To be honest, unless a player is clearly not giving a monkeys i am anti negativity and moaning at games Strawbs. I remember giving that model commited pro Paul Dalgliesh grief away at Derby in the cup and i gave Francis both barrels when he dumped on the club and was then brought on as a sub in a friendly V Inter Milan after relegation. This being Norwich though he got as many cheers as boo`s that day [8-)].I`ve used the "shut up and get behind the team" line myself several times to some annoying whingers, but the thing is we actually put our larynxes on the line and get behind the team, but we appear to be a dying breed these days. The weird thing is that the more yellow and green people plaster themselves with the quieter they tend to be in my experience..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
