New Breed Of Fans

[minijc]

Like many I've been going to home and away matches for the best part of 11 years (some much more obviously) and I'm now noticing we seem to be attracting absolute mutants, ones that just sit back and accept a poor performance, slate fans that voice their opinions when they think things are unacceptable, also they seem to want to make a day at the football a huge family friendly tea party with their wacky phrases such as "Redinburgh" and now "Parkred" where will it end? What makes it worse aswell is, just because they have a facebook group it makes them a better fan than anyone else, shower of cunts.

The technological age. It'll never end unfortunately.

History would suggest otherwise.

[Stoney]

FFS Biggest result in the clubs recent history and we get this pish.......

[Tommy]

It's only in the last 11 years that i've spotted such a mutant.

It is not exclusive to football. There seems to be more and more of a culture of being seen to be a decent person through certain means. Normally the means that requires the least effort on their part, a bit of social media activity or the likes.

 

Self congratulatory attention seekers craving acceptance.

[minijc]

Haha tommy you dick.

 

I kind of agree Roberton but it's more widespread, seems people only want to go to games and other sporting events to try be some sort of super fan but get all touchy when something they don't like happens, people getting slated for booing a poor performance, getting told you must cheer every player in your side, jesus, the game has gone.

[King Street Loon]

As said.

Social media has played a huge part in this new 'breed'.

 

I'm more perturbed by the young bampots who think it's acceptable to vandalise seats etc when away from home.

 

And yes I know away fans do it when they come up to us, but I find it pointless.

At the game you equally get a few morons who could do with being telt to shut the fuck up, get all ends of the spectrum.

Modern football fans are scum. Bring back the days of going to a game in a suit and flat cap while some cheeky young urchin annoys the fuck out of everyone with his rattle.

[Henry]

the game has gone.

 

 

Was it better in your day mini?

It was on the decline then but now it's just a joke.

[Henry]

I thought you'd largely given up anyway.

Drastic changes meant I'm back, mainly going to games for free or for a piss up.

Mainly splinter groups to be fair.

Thinking of anyone in particular?

There's a few but a couple stand out.

Problem with fans nowadays is they take the game more seriously than the pre and post match boozin

Roid rage thread.

[chaos_defrost]

Go to the majority of home games and got absolutely no idea what the original poster is talking about and have never heard of Edinburgh being referred to as Redinburgh or Parkhead as Parkred. I would think the majority of people that actually go to games don't post on football messageboards or unofficial AFC Facebook and Twitter pages.

[the_shrimp]

I missed this too. The only mutants I see at the fitba are those who wreck seats and parts of the stadium when the club prob has to pay for it.

[tightbreeks]

sh-red-der

it's a mix between bad tabloid headlines and spousands of thoonerisms.

[tightbreeks]

I'm a srime puspect for doing it on the hattage.

 

stop it!!!

[ChutneyLove]

To be fair, I've been going to Pittodrie since the 70s, and I've always been a fuckin' twat. No new breed required.

[zander]

Social networking for you.

 

Next we will be told punching a Hun is not acceptable.

Mines did this morning, IT told me to turn it off and on again...never sorted it.

 

I fixed it myself though.

 

Well played Robo, well played.

[Byrne Baby Byrne]

Is this new breed of fans the ones you see wanking over Jamie Langfield and Josh Magennis on twitter just because they tweet them back?

 

Seen a lot of tossers battering their meat over clangers kissing the badge at Tynecastle. Nit.
