Have you seen the muppets protesting at Colney today. These are real, adult human beings, allegedly.
I had a bloke directly behind me who roared abuse for the full 90 minutes, his mates all laughed.

He got very annoyed early when 1) City scored and then 2) when nobody else would join him in a refrain for David Rocastle at which point he chose to verbally abuse more or less everybody around him labelling one and all as "tourists". How a steward did not approach him I am quite unsure.

He proceeded to tell all that Andy Linighan was dead though it later turned out he is in fact alive and has a plumbing business. He was of course sure that somebody was dead. I was going to turn round and tell him that perhaps he was confusing Linighn with Tommy Caton who is dead but further to the earlier "Tourists" abuse I decided not to.

I am not averse to the odd swear word but I genuinely felt sorry for others if they had to put up with this each week.

We all get annoyed of course but this chap just gave a sense that he thought he was better than the rest.

Had I not my son with me I may have chinned him.
