Going To Games Not Involving Aberdeen.


Recommended Posts

Has anyone ever been to other games in Scotland not involving Aberdeen? I'm thinking about maybe heading to Hibs v Sevco on Saturday seeing as we're not playing until Sunday.

 

Don't really have strong feelings on Hibs but not sure how it'd be sitting in amongst them. Also not sure if I could stomach seeing the Hun singing their party songs or even worse celebrating a goal or win.

 

It's a free ticket so wouldn't be putting any money into another team. Should I head to the game or just sit in the pub all day?

I went to dunfermline v the oldco huns a number of years ago, pars end obviously but had various huns around me in the home end. Two of them coming away with some ridiculous bigoted shite throughout and I ended up in an argument with them. Stewards did fuck all to stop them. Hun member of my family fell out with me big style because I should have apparently not been bothered by huns in the pars end singing religious shite.

That's no loss then, if it was me I'd probably tell said Hun to fuck himself and never speak to him again.

Caledonia, I'm not actually fussed by the game, if it was on in the pub i'd perhaps give it the occasional glance over the top of my pint. Enjoy attending games though.

 

Would certainly be wanting Hibs to win although I think it would be fairly obvious to all at the game i'm not a Hibs fan.

 

Its a good game to pick as i can see hibs giving them a real game

have you made your mind up yet and do you live near easter road

I've never been one for going to games of teams I don't support.

 

Aberdeen games. Peterhead games. Even Brisbane team games (Strikers and now Roar). I'll go to all them.

 

Even there though I never enjoy a game as much as an Aberdeen game. It's the one that gets my blood going. It's the one that gets me involved, cheering, swearing, the rest of it. The rest... they always feel like there's no personal angst or joy at stake in it so they can be a bit going through the motions. Certainly with Brisbane games anyway.

 

That said I'll be watching that game tonight since someone mentioned it's on the box. Only in the hope that I see the NewHun get spanked.

Can you cheer another team's goal?

 

Are you willing to explain yourself to the other punters around you if you don't?

I can and do, I'm a tourist, their club is getting the money so why would they moan at me? I had a good day out at Orient a couple of years ago, qpr too. Never had a bad experience in all of the grounds in London, south east that I've been too just cos I'm not a supporter.

 

I hardly cheer a dons goal though, I'm only vocal when Jamie Langfield makes a mistake. Make of that what you will.

Been to plenty over the years and even what used to be known as an Old Firm game. The atmosphere was shite and all the hype is just a hoax, lucky if there was about 8000 folk there. The BBC add SFX to jazz it up. It was something akin to probably what an Ross County v ICT game match atmosphere is like.

Now Cowdenbeath v Dunfermline was another story

Been to heaps, but only following a couple o' my cousins who played/managed for ICT & Peterheed in the SFL and various teams in the Highland League.

 

All good/fantastic days out. Very enjoyable.

As alluded to earlier on about celebrating the goals, this was easy as it was family we were following.

 

Just an excuse to get blootered in nice wi' toons really. :beer:

...and lend support to the loons.

 

Oh, also went to the Dundee v the now defunct Glasgow Rangers cup final wi' my Dundee supporting mate.

Inadvertently ended up scrapping wi' utter hun minks in the middle of glesga. :hunbash:

Much disinfecting required.

Odious, unkempt, bigoted fucktards.

I've been to loads over the last few years. I was doing all the SPFL grounds and just completed the list a few weeks ago. I would loved to have gone to all the grounds to see the Dons play but realised that would be unlikely.
