Manwell Pablo Posted 28 September 2016 Share Posted 28 September 2016 1 minute ago, ScouseFox said: I am reasonably sure that the champions league music didn't start until the players were lined up on the pitch ready to shake hands, by which time the horn would've finished. It starts as they walk out doesn't it? And then plays for ages. God knows, even if it doesn't that's some pretty rapid hornage going on if your whacking the post hor gallop out in the time is takes for a player to walk 15 yards. We know why it wasn't played, they start every game the same, they have the same logo in the center circle before every game, christ they even make everyone cut the pitch the same. It's their competition, I can live with it. Dictating we can't sell beer in our own ground, well, I am outraged, and sober, not good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These Uefa bellends need to learn how to put a show on, I bet they've never even thought of getting people to chip a football into a roofless shed at half time, utter shambles. This needs to be sorted asap. Yes i missed the birch welcoming the visiting supporters esp. But why no filbert? Also the away team shook hands with our lads rather than the other way round! !!!

narboroughblue Posted 28 September 2016 Share Posted 28 September 2016 Did UEFA dictate that the grass had to be long enough for the Porto players to keep tripping over it too?!? In all seriousness it's a bit pathetic the rules we have to follow but if it means we get Champions League football then so be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

st albans fox Posted 28 September 2016 Share Posted 28 September 2016 Overlooked until about 7-35 was the King power logo on the stairs in the directors box a mate sent me this photo - all the big nobs walking in whilst it was being done and Susan Whelan not looking too impressed. Rudkin was happy to see that he isn't the doziest member of staff ! apparently they were covering them up with blue boarding and gaffer tape throughout the first half!!

CosbehFox Posted 28 September 2016 Share Posted 28 September 2016 Remember back in the Kelly era didnt we have that odd situation where the fella who blew the TPHG was sacked but continued turning up and blowing his horn at kick-off? Just do that again, job done. Take the UEFA fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can usually spot them because they are generally clueless about accepted football etiquette. They turn up 5 minutes into the second half, dont wait for the ball to go out of play before getting everybody to stand up and block views just as the ball gets pinged across the 6 yard box. Wankers!

Thracian Posted 29 September 2016 Share Posted 29 September 2016 Nothing's sacred anymore - it's all buyable. As for the beer, more nannyism. It's like a rampant disease these days. Not that I'd have drunk it anyway. Far better choice at the Soar Point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuchsntf Posted 29 September 2016 Share Posted 29 September 2016 Dont worry..we have planned a demonstration... We qualify out of the group....Throw the next game against Barca, Telling EUFA we dont like be held to Ransom, you can tape up what you like, ban and cover up boardings with our genuine sponsors of our club..!! BUT..!!! Forcing us into a no/ new or different beer policy.....enough to turn one to drink..ffs. we should invest in large flag like the tifos, then unvail them with...Banks, Shipstones, Everards, local micro breweries. Then Melton and walkers pork pies, and the biggest for pukka balti pies..!! Then a warning banner saying UEFA advertising is not good for your health. 2nd hand advertising, contains toxic untruths, confusing young children and Adults.....

Trav Le Bleu Posted 29 September 2016 Share Posted 29 September 2016 Pepsi own Lays and Walkers, which is why their packaging is almost identical. Essentially it's like we used to have Marathon and it was known as Snickers everywhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
