Hookowl Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Funniest one was a Tuesday night match at Scunthorpe in 2012. We were 2 - 0 up at half time and an old couple sat behind me. Woman said to her husband "it's not fair we shouldn't have to play teams as good as this". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sat in Preston end once think it ended up 0-0 but Chris Brunt scored... Wednesday end went wild so stood up but managed to contain it and just clapped. Got a bit of abuse but nowt major. Ended up being offside anyway How funny if you got spannered for a disallowed goal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanzaroteowl Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Sat in the John street stand at the Sty with a couple of mates. Behind the Blunts Bumming Club. Hirsty scored and all the Blunts were going apeshit at him. I joined in shouting "Oi Hirsty you pit rat.......put another f@cker in". It got a little uncomfortable after that. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very hard trying to look disappointed as they flew in, espescially Brunt's beauty. Same for me, last minute decision, went with a couple of leeds fans who had a ticket spare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pj owl Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Leeds when Andy Booth scored a header in that great start to the season we had. A number of fellow Owls couldn’t resist it behind us and got ejected. (will be with mates who are Chelsea on Sunday) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trumbullowl Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 In the early eighties my first job after uni was in Kent. I went to see us at Stamford Bridge and walking up to the away end I was asked by a policeman where I lived, Rochester I replied and was turned away. I watched from the Shed. Didn't make a peep when Banno gave us the lead. They won though, Walker crossed to Droy I think. Miserable day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mountain Owl Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 45 minutes ago, steelowl said: millwall I win Done that too. Night match in 70's stood bang on the half way line just below where their main mob were singing. Saw Harry the dog one of their main idiots, thought ffs don't ask me the time or owt about players. As luck would have it we lost. Also stood on the shed end purposefully as we knew our fans would be kept in for up to an hour after the game and we would have to leave the escort to get to the car making it obvious who we were.

Guest Theboylangers Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Sat in the away end at Bournemouth when we drew 1-1, I think it was Heckingbottom that scored in the 94th minute to equalise. Got a few angry looks but nothing tricky. Also Ipswich away when Nigel Pearson scored the winner, think it was the season we won the league cup. I'd backed Pearson at 50/1 to score the first goal, 2 quid on. A decent return in those days. Anyway, Ipswich fans didn't mind us celebrating. Also been in Forest home end with a Forest supporting mate. We won 1-0 and I think I stood up when we scored , got a few looks but nothing happened.

My dad didn't think twice about lifting me up to celebrate us scoring. Three of us somehow ended up on there for the game in the early nineties when we lost 2-0. Pretty unpleasant experience surrounded by their Orcs and to cap it all had to watch Bradshaw walking towards us kissing the badge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barn_owl Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Was in Forest end when we won 3-0 a couple of seasons ago. We played some great stuff that day and Forest couldn't handle us at times. Managed to keep in in until the 3rd when i stood up, fortunately a few forest fans did as well to have a go at them. After the match I stayed to watch the team walk off and as they approached the tunnel there were a fair few clapping them off and cheering them, so suppose there was a few Wednesday in there that day.

Had driven up straight from work on a whim and got tickets in the main stand. https://www.11v11.com/matches/leeds-united-v-sheffield-wednesday-20-august-1996-22564/ Same for me and sat in the same place either the year before or after when we won again. i was the only Yorkshireman around me. Bloke whose guest I was, he was Scottish, Norwegians, Irish and all sorts everywhere. think it was fairly obvious who I was supporting but I didn’t feel particularly threatened ( I had had a couple).
