DannyNCFC7 4 Posted January 7, 2013 Hi Saturday I am going to carrow road I have never sat in the snakepit. Is it true you are able to stand all game. I always sit in the norwich and Peterborough stand. Do the steward give a shit about you standing or can you get reported? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Webbo118 0 Posted January 7, 2013 If you stand you will be in danger of getting an ASBO. I know this is so because I have just been told. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rustyboy 2 Posted January 8, 2013 Danny, got to know a steward well and they now pick games where they try to get you to sit. Normally the smaller club games (like Aston Villa :-))You get a few warnings before you get taken out.Hope you know all the words to the songs! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can''t believe how many people still don''t get OTBC right. The words are "Have a little Scrimmage", not Scrummage!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marvin the martian 0 Posted January 8, 2013 If you have paid for a seat you should sit in it. Haven''t you read the Peterborough seats thread ? [:P] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snakepit Ric 0 Posted January 8, 2013 You will get chucked out. Then arrested and finally get made to wear a Ipswich shirt if you stand !! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

After that eperience, you''ll find you have to stand for the rest of the match and indeed the rest of the weekend. That''s up to you though. Some people go for that sort of thing, I hear.

He has this book open on the specific page and then quite randomly approaches persistent standers inviting them to read the highlighted passage. If they remain upright he will then take them away to a place I have never been. Sometimes they return and sometimes they are not seen for the rest of the game. Haven''t seen this ceremony performed for a few years but it''s return is nigh..... But is it still Wattsy[:^)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duncan Edwards 0 Posted January 8, 2013 PC Watts.The Beast.I''m sure Dr Crafty won''t be surprised, but when he used to try his shenanigans the Barclay Boys just couldn''t read!!!!He''d offer to read it to you, at which point we suddenly couldn''t hear. Nutty Nigel used to politely ask him if he''d run along as he was trying to watch the game. Glad it''s not the same now....nightstick versus crutches in the Battle of Barclay....
