archieswfc Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Tango had the hump over something n his bummer boys were singing songs to ar53 luck him. It was a bit embarrassing to be fair and I'm not a tango hater he is what he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LocomotiveOwlerton Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 What is the collective noun for this group? A tummy of Tangos? A Tango Chavalanche. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahrain Owl Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I was told, when I lived briefly in Coven (Wolverhampton), that he is an HGV inspector at the testing station at Featherstone (A449 - Wolverhampton to Cannock Road) - next to the prison.

Mountain Owl Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Cant, see what the problem is. Dedicated fan travels to every home and away game including pre season friendlies. Enjoys having a laugh. Always tries to get the crowd going. Some of our fans are a pain in the backside but Tango,s not one of em. Its the boring muppets who criticise him who I have a problem with.

FlyingOwl Posted March 5, 2015 Author Share Posted March 5, 2015 Don't get me wrong. I completely respect him for following us around the country. It's something I'd love to do but quite clearly I'm not quite dedicated enough to do. He is and I respect him for that. I just found him weirder and more attention seeking than usual last night. Went to the toilet at half time and several lads were singing tops off for tango... And people on here get their knickers in a bunch when fans clap ex players. Last night Tango burst into many verses of 'we've got tommy spurr'. It was just bizzare behaviour, that's all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might have been making the point how much of a fan Tommy Spurr is of our club (which he is) but then again I might be well off the mark with that. Just take him for what he is a dedicated fan who,s a wind up merchant, a bit of a show off, a bit of a fruitcake but good for the team and the crowd in how he gets behind them.

Ever heard of atmosphere? I just don't class one single fans starting songs about himself as atmosphere. Nor do I class singing songs about taking our tops off for another bloke, as a football atmosphere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nor do I class singing songs about taking our tops off for another bloke, as a football atmosphere. There are many examples when he,s got the fans going all by himself at away matches. As I say its easy to pick spots off the guy cause he is a bit of a fruitcake why not see the positives of the guy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just that his negatives are painfully on show during those dark and poo poo Tuesday night games. You might say 'why let it bother you', but you could say that about football in general... The tops off for Tango thing kicked off last night cos a steward ordered him to put his shirt back on. It's not a lot to ask.

shandypants Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 (edited) How very weird for several grown men to remove their tops for another grown man. I don't think its that uncommon. I think that (what is it?) 1-in-6 men quite like removing their tops for other men. Edited March 5, 2015 by shandypants Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To wear clothes in the stadium I can,t see why anybody would be offended by a topless Tango. Its hardly against the law and its a soccer game not a 5 star a la carte restaurant that we,re attending.

Groundhopping Owl Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I thought the tops off thing was pretty funny tbh, gave me a laugh on an otherwise miserable evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the stewards have started clicking onto the fact that it's not just Tango now who removes his shirt in that end? Or maybe, and it's a big maybe, the new owner doesn't like it?

My point is why should it be an offence to take ones shirt off at a soccer game? We can wear whatever we like to attend the game, scruffy jeans, ripped shirt, holes in our shoes so why not shirtless?
