matthefish2002 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 I don't see how anyone could have a problem with swearing at a football game, Unless its really OTT and aggressive. People moaning about some fans don't like 'London Owls' get over it, every group of fans has its idiots and we are no different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buxtongent Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 I was born and bred on the outskirts of Sheffield. I started watching Wednesday at the grand old age of SEVEN. I spent my working life in the pits, and I can swear with the best. But 'Industrial Language' is exactly what it says 'Language to be used in Industry' and not for public consumption. I was told about swearing at school that using swear words simply shows a poor command of the English language. As for boozing, I've boozed with the best, got drunk a time or two, always considered myself 'working class' - what a horrible phrase! - but still consider myself any man's equal. To me, a football match, and going to watch one, is an experience. I go for the football (if there be any) and whilst a pie and a pint helps to improve that experience, it is an addition to, not the main reason for, attending what is after all a family sport. If our 'Posh London' supporters do not use what was always called in my locale 'pit talk' so much the better. Would that we had more at Hillsborough, to replace some of the foul mouthed scum we do have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReadingOwl Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Whilst I don't condone boorish language out of context. Saying that people that swear 'don't have a good command of the English language' is a myth. It's simply not true. A lot of people swear, in the right context, time and place.

prowl Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Southerners swear as much as Northerners, they just have a different accent. I was born on Penistone Road. When I was a toddler I could hear the roar from the ground when Wednesday scored. I live in the south now but I've still got my accent and I still support Wednesday. People are the same where ever they live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flat Owl Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Perhaps when NFL style advert breaks come into our game we might have enough time to express our dissatisfaction at a referees decision in a much more eloquent fashion... Until then, in a fast moving game I remain quite happy to use the time honoured 'yer f**kin joking ref'.... If you don't like it, go and sit in the family stand.

southportdc Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Think the exotic riches of Southern life got to someone's head at one point when they chucked what I am assured was a kiwi fruit at the linesman. Really hope the lad took a whole fruit basket along in case of poor decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owlsfan_72 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 The lads a few rows behind us were using the c-word profusely. To the extent of amending the bounce song to: If you don't cXXting cxxt, if you don't cxxting cxxt then you're a cxxt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlyingOwl Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 I've just never seen swearing as a big deal. Will I try to curb it in front of certain people, young children, elderly people....course I will. But football is a completely different environment. If you go to football with the idea that everyone will mind their P's and Q's and it'll be a friendly atmosphere...especially away games, then you're kidding yourself. Away days you have to get your head around the idea of expecting the unexpected. Pretty much anything goes. If that offends you...that's your own problem. NOT the problem of the vast majority who don't give a poo poo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
