Lower Barclay Moaner

[peter2704 0]

I sit in the Lower Barclay in front of possibly the most annoying fan I have ever come across. Every little thing is greeted with a loud "That''s pathetic (insert players name), did Hughton tell you to do that!". Now, I can get vocal when there''s some poor performances going on, but when Becchio had the ball on the half way line at one stage on Saturday, according to the moaner, he should be expected to take on the 5 or 6 Everton players between him and the goal and score, rather than hold the ball up for support and bring others into play. I wouldn''t mind if he moaned occasionally, but it''s literally every touch a player takes!

Sorry about the rant, but had to get it off my chest! Bring on Movers and Shakers!

Theres one like this near everyone, no matter where you sit.I have 3 or 4, including a woman who shrieks "Get it in the box" at utterly random times.

[Jack Barak 46]

A mate of mine has his ST in the N&P, a woman behind him is hilarious / awful - she shouts random nonsense in the most ridiculous shriek of a voice ever heard, it is literally like nails down a blackboard. She leaves every game with five minutes to go and shrieks ''sit down, sit down, sit down'' if people stand when it looks like we might score. He is looking at moving to another area because of it.Also, and I don''t why but she always reserved her most vitriolic and screechy stuff for Chris Martin - ''that ain''t good enough Chrissy, you ain''t puttin'' no effort in Martin''. I appreciate CM can be frustrating but shut up!

To be honest I think there are some who would moan if were in Man U''s shoes.......I had the ones behind me in the Lower Barclay who were chanting Boring Boring!!!!!

 

I did however find the two guys behind me shouting at Neville really funny even to the point when Neveille moaned at the steward about it......I love the away team warming up near the snake pit.

 

Credit to the Snakepit, not once did we hear the "We Stand When We Wnat" Chant.

No, he''s a young guy in his early 20''s I suspect. He even used the "I could do better than that" quote on Saturday! At this point I actually told him to shut up!

Is he the one who keeps shouting for Simeone Jackson to be brought on ?

''That''s ridiculous!!'' ''Outrageous!''

The only thing that is ridiculous is the fan who sits behind me in the upper Barclay''s handle on the laws of the game

[TIL 1010 5,246]

There is a huge guy well over 6 feet tall ( but that is for another thread [;)]) who sits behind me and my mate who also listens to the commentary and every time there is a controversial decision bellows out in a loud yorkshire accent " the replay shows you have got it wrong ref/lino.Do your job properly" and he also gives a running commentary to the bloke sitting beside him who he thinks for some reason must be blind in his bellowing Yorkshire accent so everybody within about a ten yard radius can hear him.

I snapped at one in E Block last season whilst we were beating Wigan 1-0, at that time we would have been 8th in the league and he was laying in to the players big time because Wigan were starting to get on top. I snapped at him and had a chap at half time come and shake my hand because he was getting on his nerves as well

Ajax friendly was the worst

 

Thought I would sit in the Main Stand, comfy seats and free biccies at half time.

 

Didn''t expect to have some bloke in front of me constantly bellowing at the players,

 

up and down all the ruddy time, wouldn''t sit still for a minute so come half time I found a steward to complain to. He finds a ''head'' steward who tells me

 

" you will have to get used to it sir, he is the manager and that''s what they do "

I feel sorry for all you ST holders, as a casual I book different seats in Block H of the Jarrold but have never suffered any of the moans identified here, as most in Block H are casual we are probably glad to get to watch the game, need higher ST prices to really give em summat to really moan about.

Lower River End, behind the goal, near the back. Constantly shouts a load of carp. Probably posts on here

[QHcanary 0]

Well, for the inhabitants of the mid rows of block M in the Jarrold, we have "SWITCH".As his name suggests, his favourite cry, even when the player in possession is under pressure and facing the near touchline is "SWITCH IT!!!", in the most piercing voice imaginable. Somehow he thinks players have eyes in the back of their heads, through which they can spot the obvious opportunity of a 70 yard, lofted backheel. Every time he utters his catchphrase it draws an ironic cheer from most of the people within earshot.He comes out with plenty of other gems too, blaming anyone and everyone for the latest mishap on the pitch (except the culprit, usually).Someone actually came to blows with him a couple of seasons ago. His voice is THAT annoying.

I sit in the Upper Barclay and have to say that pretty much everyone around us are decent folk - realistic, knowledgable, happy to chat and really lovely and patient to my 2 young kids. I feel that I am missing out on all this hilarity going on in other areas now!

You must be near me - Area A Row K mid 20s - perhaps we could club together & make it worth his while to move?

[Highland Canary 78]

People still moan in the River End even after we have this new fangled roof and seats.

[Proper Charlie 0]

I have a guy who sits 2 seats away from me who has 2 hearing aids (not sure if that bit is relevant or not?), but he constantly just shouts "linesman linesman" etc etc. Even if a city player is well offside, he still shouts at the lino!! Bless him.

 

 

@Morty, the woman that shouts about "getting it in the box" is definitely talking about the football isn''t she??

[nutty nigel 7,902]

I bet when they get it in the box she still moans...

That''s a different ball game.....

There is a strange mentality at play here, there is a bloke in front of me who regularly stands up and shouts "hit him, hit him" for no reason which relates to anything whatsoever that is going on on the pitch, sounds like there are lots of others who are unable to prevent themselves from shouting out  some other repeated inane comment throughout the game. It''s a bit like a nervous twitch I suppose.[:)]

You work 8am  to 6pm, Monday to Friday,  you get home each evening and the kids are tearing the house down, the wife is at the end of her tether and you collapse into an armchair and pretend nothing is happening, sit quietly hoping it will all go away, watching One Show/Eastenders/Corry/ whatever other stuff is on offer/go to bed and nothing happens there either.   You get to Saturday and you are dragged around the shops and can''t wait for the moment when Norwich are playing at home.   And you can''t help it,  it all pours out, the frustration, the pent up anger, the unfairness of it all - the players are rubbish, the manager is rubbish, the ref is worse than rubbish, Delia can''t cook, the fans around you are rubbish - and there it is - you finish the match unaware that you have been shouting out complete garbage for 90 minutes annoying everyone around you.   Do you care? No, because you feel alot better for it....
