Walsall Fans

[Quirkafleeg]

Now Im seeing a lot of 'Terrible game, but it was all about having a great time whatever happened'

Right I don't buy this crap at all. Id be absolutely fookin gutted if I went to Wembley to only then see Wolves get a lesson in football and power like Bristol City today. Whats the general feeling about these types of statements.

I'm with Jose on this. Finals are for winning. Want a nice day out go to Alton Towers or a Steam Railway.....

 

[Alan]

Winning above all? That's very American of you, Quirky.

Again saw fans with half and half scarves on. Why the fuck would anyone buy one of them?

It was Walsalls first visit to Wembley, so while I m sure they would have liked to win, I cannot really blame them for making the most of their day out.

One of the worst aspects of the modern fan, absolute fucking nonsense!

 

[Penk Wolf]

Over 70% have purchase history with Villa, West Brom and Wolves, hardly surprising a lot went for the day out.

I think that most clubs that reach a Wembley final tend to have fans suddenly appearing out of the woodwork.

Event-specific memorabilia makes sense to me.

 

[Penk Wolf]

You doing well on stereotyping here Alan.

 

[Alan]

Eh?

Also very American.

 

[Alan]

Ah. Well the first was tongue-in-cheek but the second I suppose I've made easy for you.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Why, if I wanted a memento of my club getting to a final, would I want another club's name all over it?

 

[YoungWolf]

I suppose it is to show what the event was, maybe? I dunno, it's weird to me too.

In years gone by, local fans (eg of wolves) would go to the hawthorns, or villa park etc if their team were playing an away game.
I thought it was a more recent thing that people were exclusively one club?

Before football was expensive.

Back to Walsall for a second:

I wonder if Paul Franks still thinks Dean Smith has done a better job than Kenny Jackett?

Never understood that either, my old man when never have set foot in the Hawthorns unless it was to see Wolves.
