What our opponents' fans are saying about us 17/18

[heelspurs]

I'm pretty sure that the Roast Beef's are what the French like to call the English as an insult. Like us calling the French frogs.

My tongue was firmly in my cheek hence the emojis. Learned during time I spent in Lyon about 20 years ago. The folks I was with said it was intended like the 'frog' term. But I never really associated limeys the English with roast beef like escargot with the french. Interestingly, or not, on the same trip I learned the term POMs from some Aussies (as an aside, there should be some UN human rights thing about hanging with Aussies on holiday) I met.

It's POME prisoners of mother england. Which is a bit rich since they were the criminals (allegedly it was written on the ships the convicts arrived in although that is debatable).

Some disagree with this and say it's to do with pomegrannits. But they're idiots.

Yeah, the explanation they gave was the prisoner one and I did see the irony. But judging by the (good natured) debauchery I witnessed I can only conclude the prisoner one is correct

@Mattspur how the fuck is a nickname related to food an insult?? Jeez some people are so narrow minded.

 

[youngyids]

As its pedo bear. Not sure why a Monaco forum have a wanking pedo bear icon. Worrying

i think the "brothel" part comes from them g-translating our "whoring", lot of pages to go back thru to find most. ive been on 4 or so forums. heres 1:

=====================================================================
http://liveteam-asm.com/AsmForum/in...naco-avant-match/&do=findComment&comment=2564

But brothel which foot to find this competition. Just hearing that music

We find the scent of the great evenings of LDC, little stress, the small ball in the stomach a few minutes before the game, the excitement ... We approach this European campaign with a team that appreciates, which is very endearing.

We will show Rosbeefs that AS Monaco is a great club! Daghe Munegu!

====================================================

That cute french arrogance further into the thread, though:
"Anyway, Tottenham are favourites, hugely so for some. Does it reflect the reality? I can't be bothered to have any interest for that club".

Sounds like something I could have written.

Otherwise, they are pretty sure that we will start strongly and the first 15 minutes will be tough, but that we shouldn't be too confident in our strength and endurance because they have Glik and Fabinho (partially true, to be honest). They'd prefer to avoid free kick in dangerous areas due to Eriksen's kicks. They view us as cocky, underestimating their players. After all, Monaco has a more recent CL quarter final than Spurs, who has achieved nothing in Europe for decades, also partially true, but "decades" is obviously wrong when speaking about quarter finals.

I kept getting called Pom when I lived in Oz, despite the fact I was living in Oz and not England. They couldn't quite grasp what this meant in relation to what they were calling me.

Incidentally, want to know the easiest way to wind up an Aussie?

Point at his flag as say, "See that Union Jack in the top corner there?"

Aussie: "Yeah?"

"That's our stamp of ownership. We own you."

Aussie: "Like **** you do you ****ing Pommie ******!"

You will meet stiff resistance and denial, but fear not, the coup de gras is at hand. You then ask them to show you their coins. As we all know, coins have a head and a tail...

Ask them who's head it is, salute, say God Save the Queen and walk away with a quiet "owned."

They go batshit mental, it's fecking hilarious!

10 years of fun I had with that...

Never got old.

Just parked by doctors surgery for 1.20 in Stanmore. Forget the station.

 

[bomberH]

I parked in the red car park right next to the stadium for a measly £30, more than the match ticket actually cost . But I'm not very well and the thought of squashing with thousands on the tube before and after made this one off decision well worth it.

Edit: I thought this was the pub/parking thread due to Riggi's extremely informative post above. Apologies.

You're sick? We all knew that bomber

 

[Nine while nine]

So on the night that we might break the record for the biggest home attendance by an English football club, what do the current holders of the record, Manchester City, have to say about potentially losing their little piece of history?

"It won't matter what the crowd is."

Yes, it will.

"Our attendance was at our home stadium not a hired ground so it's still a record."

No, it's not.

"I always knew this record as "The largest attendance for a domestic football game outside of Wembley"."

No, you didn't.

"The record has always been home attendance outside of London and Glasgow between two domestic sides."

No, it hasn't

"It doesn't count in a leap year."




Hmm. Taking it well then

To be fair, though, a good number on Blue Moon are impressed with us bringing in over 80,000 for a game against Monaco and there are those who are prepared to let their record go with good grace. So kudos to them for holding the record for so long. Or, as one poster nicely put it

"We've held it for 82 years. Even Bryan Adams wasn't number 1 for that long."

Well played, City. Well played.

 

[bomberH]

My gooner mate keeps texting me laughing about our result. I've text him back about 27 times with the line 'biggest club in London'. 23 of those times he hadn't even texted anything. He literally has no comeback. ****.

 

[Bobbins]

Just jealousy

Facebook has been a nightmare last night and today as the BBC and MotD pages report about last night and particularly the record. Constant whining and bitching about how it doesn't count and how we shouldn't be allowed to use Wembley etc. Bitter jealous pricks everywhere. And loads of hilarious statement-of-fact comments of "no it's not a record" or "but Liverpool got 89k against Barca this summer".

The funniest thing is last week all the comments were "lol they'll never fill the stadium only 25k Spurs fans go to games and they never sell out WHL anyway", then after we did sell it out, today has been endless "well any club would've filled it out and I bet 60k of them were Chinese tourists anyway".

Jealous bitter twats everywhere.

Surely just reply with this:

25th Feb 2015: Arsenal 1 - 3 Monaco

Yeah all I got was 'well even Orient can sell out Wembley if it was £20 a ticket'. I didn't know where to start.

Seeing as a load of my mates bought memberships and spent £40 on their tickets i'd call it closer to £100.

Another way to wind them up is to sing, "God save your gracious queen", or (to the tune of Yellow Submarine), "You all live in a convict colony, a convict colony, a convict colony".

Whenever they are expected to do summatt they implode.
Loads of hype from the press
No real quality or commitment
Shouldn't be a worry to us at the weekend if we have confidence
Have arsed team of wage-pickers
Fukin hate the London boys like they've arrived somewhere we haven't
Spurs are just nowt and very very beatable with the right attitude

Cmon Moyesey get them wound up for this one

To be fair you can't argue with the first sentence.

Rest is a load of shite though.
