Culture Shift - Am I Getting Old?

[Parm]

It may sound a bit daft but if (and it's a big if) they ever do build a new ground why not have some kind of "boys pen" again? Obviously you couldn't charge a shilling as when I first started but a fiver wouldn't be unreasonable and would ensure our future fan base.

Cue loads of thirty somethings trying to look younger to get into a big match!

strangley enough that's what I thought! a Boys Pen would be a superb idea, or at least some sort of concession for the youngsters

I've sat everywhere in Anfield and for me,
I like to watch and analyze, get close to the game and the Paddock on the halfway is the only place to do that.
Not much atmosphere but great view.

The Kop is full of wools and Irish lads who just want a sing song.

The Lower Cent is even worse, for every week knobheads who have nothing to offer but criticism and read a programme the whole game.

Fair call mate

Paddock is best spec I've ever had and I've sat everywhere. I think sitting down tends to make you want to analyse what you are watching.

Sat in the Kemlyn before and after it became the LC until I moved to the paddock 7 years ago and the dynamics of that area changed as time went on

I think the high percentage of season tickets and low turnover has adversely affected the atmosphere generally speaking.

Still love going though!

You sure you weren't sitting next to 2 manc fans trying to pretend otherwise ?

Don't actually think they had any type of allegiance to be fair.

Maybe they were competition winners or something..............

Still nobs though

Lower Cent near the Kop is one of my fav places to sit. Great spec. Not too many dickheads.

I'm sitting there against Crewe, front row and all, hopefully give Arbeloa's hair a ruffle when he takes a throw in.

Geez, lighten up will ya.

If you find that insulting then I suggest you get yourself a thicker skin.

The comment was tongue in cheek and was not meant to offend anyone FFS.

I take it you aren't the lad who sings
"Ste Gerrard Gerrard, Impossible forty yards"

[Red Wino]

Geez, lighten up will ya.

That's funny, based on your first post.

Doesn't sound like you like to sing, so why put down other people who at least try?

I normally sit in the Kop, but was in the Lower Centenary for the Scum game. The guy next to me spent the whole game bad mouthing Kuyt and Benayoun instead of getting behind the team. Not sure why he turned up he even looked annoyed when Kuyt got the assist. Lets face it you'll get knob heads in every stand. The guys behind me asked who scored the first goal when I said Reira (looked like he did at first) they said 'who, never heard of him'!

knobheads everywhere saturday for sure

I was in the Annie Road end - about 10 seats away from the united fans. Bunch of ****ing cunts! - When they were one nil up they were singing what i think is one of the worst chants I hear at anfield and usually connect to ****e clubs like wigan or villa or bolton - the "wheres ur famous atmosphere" chant - come on united fans, **** me that disappointed me I thought they could offer more than that! -

well the cunts did with a small rendition off "u killed ur own fans" - which nearly caused a riot as literlay everyone just stood up and went ****ing mad. We then scored, the place went mental, and as they sat down i was sad to hear probably two or three people singing "who is that lying on the runway" and waving their warms about like aeroplanes. I was pleased to see that it was only 2 or 3, it didn't catch on and they soon stopped.

All in all tho the atmosphere was great in the lower annie road - I get tickets anyway possible, whether it's via parents/relatives spare season tickets, my pts and fancard, mates spare tickets etc etc - as a result i end up sitting on my own all over the ground. So i have seen and experienced exactly the same as mentioned above - fortunately on saturday i ended up in the middle of a good crowd and sat next to a lad who was also on his own and by the end of the match we were hugging like best mates at a wedding which is what i love about going the game and sitting on your own - a few mates always question me going and sitting on my own, they are fortunate to have three seats together in the kop - but i'm not worried, cause for those 90 mins whoever i am sitting next too becomes family

haha - with regards the first goal - i was lowerannie road, kinda mid way up and just to the left of the goal as i looked at it. So the first goal happend in front of us, at half time i recieved a text from a few mate sin the kop asking who scored and what happened for our goal

hahaha i had to laugh and replied back - **** knows!, in fact noone round me knew haha - everyone jumped up and was screaming handball at to us, what looked like a blatant handball on thed edge of the box from alonso's shot - nobody seemed to pick up on it and it wasn't mentioned in the commentry or shown in the highlights but us, our view, it looked like handball. So for that split second about 100 or so around us were screaming and going mad for the handball when all fo a sudden we saw the ball bumble over van der sar and in slow motion trickle towards the goal! hahah
