No, no it won't. Never has before, so isn't likely to this time.


Let him live his little fantasy Stranded.

It'll be dead once they bang in their second goal.

Hopefully the fans will react like the away contingent does. Go mad if we win, and go crazier if we lose. Either way, should be a fun day.

RFCSinceBury1971 This topic really irritates me. Firstly there are ground regulations which the football club have to adhere to. That includes standing. Its an all seater stadium ffs. There are signs stating what these regulations are. You attend a game and agree to abiding by these regulations when you purchase your ticket. People will want to sit and not stand and therefore do not want people standing so they cant see. We all accept during a game that people will stand during incidents in the game but a line has to be drawn somewhere. If someone is continually standing in front of someone then you could well upset the person behind you. If thats the case then respect that. Its the rules. As for the tangos they are doing there job. You can enjoy the game just as much from your seat as you can standing. As for singing its not compulsory so each to there own. Anyone who is standing for long periods is imo drawing attention to themselves and to the possabilty of being thrown out and at worse being banned. As for telling someone to go and sit somewhere else you have to remember they have as much right to be there as you. If you feel encouraging everyone to stand is the answer then you are wrong. This could lead to capacity being reduced or even ground closure. Same thing applies to away fans as Leeds found out once when they came to us and had the allocation reduced under the rules. Bottom line is consistent standing spoils the enjoyment for otheres. If you cant see thet for yourself then im sorry maybe you should go somewhere else.

Rant over.


I hope there're aren't too many like you. That's all.

It's X2
Can't
That's
Their (not there) X2
Possibility (not possabilty)
Others (not otheres)
That (not thet)
I'm

And I'm sure that commas could have been used in one or two places.

For the Boro game I went in there.

I was wearing an old shirt under a coat, They asked for Id, then told me I couldn't come in.

When I asked if they were over 21s on Matchdays, they told me no, I couldn't come in because I didn't come from Reading.

When I pointed out that my Driving license said that I was from Reading, that I was wearing a Reading shirt, had my Season ticket in my pocket and a ticket for the Wigan away game, they relented....

I'll probably drink in Caversham and get the free bus up.

In future he may wish to try O'Neill's as they seem to have no restrictions in place this season apart from no colours. Whether this will change for Utd is another matter.
