Hmm now I've missed most of this conversation but having been at the match last night I have this observation of your fans.

You were quiet for large periods of the first half and only made yourselfs heard when your team made any sort of attack into our half (Which wasn't that much in the first half). You also sang the same thing (which didn't have any words to it as far as I remember) and there was no imagination to it. Just another song taken from other clubs with the word "alex" put into it at some random point. In the 2nd half, fair play to you, you did us over. You sang more because of this. A mixture of the afformentioned song from the first half, as well as "We're going to Wembly" chants and "Shit club no fans" which clearly isn't true by any stretch of the imagination. You only pocked your heads out once the times got good for you. As for us Cov fans. We sang practically the whole way through. We kept on singing everytime they scored and we had a plethora of different songs we could sing. So we are not shit fans and you definately didn't silence us like you seem to think. Your post therefore is full of Confident Bravado and another word that is closely linked to bravado is Arrogance!

My views on the game itself!

First half we were all over you like a rash. The ref gave you a lot of the benefit of the doubt and allowed your keeper to get away with time wasting every bloody time he had the ball in his hands (in both halfs of the match I might add). The slightest contact made to one of your players resulted in "Im injured ref, give me a free kick and book that guy" intimations that didn't impress any of us in the Cov stands. I lost count of the amount of times your players used their hands (either to knock the ball away or to grab and hold onto our players) and really couldn't understand why the ref kept letting you get away with it. You only managed to go into the first half at 0-0 because your keeper kept you in it with some very good reaction saves. Also if Jennings had taken more time over his shot in the last minute of extra time in the first half, we definately would have scored and the game might have been a lot different!

But sadly this wasn't to happen. In the second half your players wanted it more and they showed it. You made us regret all those missed chances in the first half (as well as a fair few in the second). Our defence on three occassions allowed you to come at them, backed away from you as you approached and then watched as you scored. They weren't fatastic goals, far beyond it, in fact they were tap ins. Everyone of them were tap ins and not worth remembering. So in that department, you were gifted chances. The only difference between our teams last night was that you took your chances (even if you were given an easy ride to get them) while we didn't. Something else of note that I was disgusted by was the way your number 5, Ellis got Cyrus Christie booked. I'm sorry, one of your fans comes racing onto the pitch, pushes one of our lads as he runs past, pats some of yours on the shoulder and you do nothing about it (yeh I agree the stewards should have done more before you say anything) but when Cyrus tripped that lad, it wasn't malicious. He wanted that lad off the pitch so we could continue, that was all. So your fan squares up to him and then while the stewards are getting him off the pitch, your number 5 gets Cyrus booked. Thats disgusting in my books. It's not an Eden Hazard incident by any stretch of the imagination and no booking should ever have happend!

And one more thing. Your players (as mentioned before) were all over the shop. Falling over when hardly any contact had been made. For instance, your keeper had his hands around Elliots waste at one point when we had a corner. The minute Elliot tried to kick the ball, he fell over. He clearly did that on purpose to get a free kick. Your lad that went over and had to have treatment. Play acting worthy of Saurez! And I know it was play acting because about a minute after he came on the pitch, he was using his injured arm to hold one of our players and then pulled him to the ground with it. If you've just hurt your arm like he was making out he had, you wouldn't be using it like that. Your players fell over so much, you could turn it into a comedy act!

But in the end, we lost, you won. You deserved it, we didn't! You put the ball in the net, we didn't. But I offer you the same warning you gave us (one that I never doubted for a second by the way), we will not be that easy to walk over when we come to you. Sure we may not win but we'll give a damn good try and our away form is a hell of a lot better than our home form so watch out :) And that's not arrogance, it's just a friendly warning from one football fan to another ;)

Now have a nice week and smile for you won! That's something to be celebrated!

That song is about our holding midfielder Abdul Osman.

His 1st name is abdul (abdul repeated)
His 2nd name is Osman (Osman repeated)
That is why we like him (we like him repeated)
In fact we fucking love him (we love him repeated)

Then the drone bit.

Not that you will be that interested, but there are a number of words to it.

Ojprice was making a valid point there sb4e!

The pressure we put on our players probably contributed to what happened last night.

Their players (apart from falling over rather comically on far too many occasions) hadn't got so much pressure on them to perform well as we had on our lads.

And as I said to EVO, its better to be polite than to antagonise them more!

Let them say their peice and then they'll go away!

I know it just annoys me when small minded people who support the opposition come on here and start threads like this.

If we're gonna talk about songs, then we sang many more as well. Original songs may I point out. Blue Moon is ours, Ajay's song is ours, Murphy had a pigeon is ours. Try listening properly before passing judgement.

Actually I'm quite interested!

I was trying to work out what the hell you were singing for most of the match but couldn't catch it.

I'm a professional actor and a singer and I enjoy a good tune ;)

Just read the tap ins comment!!!!! You clearly didn't go the game last night. Wow. How can anyone say our goals were tap ins?

Conversation over. What a bunch of deluded half wits you are. How can somebody describe Inman's 2nd, where he got the ball in his own half, beat 3 men and lashed home, as a tap in. Wow. Wow. Just wow.

Again it's not that I wasn't listening properly, I just couldn't catch it properly because unfortunately I have really crap hearing (reacurring issues from my childhood!)

I'm not the enemy here mate. I'm a football fan like you. I passed on my opinion of your fans and the game to try and get the point across to you that neither fans dominated the others but rather responded based on what their team was doing and it just so happened that in the first half you were quiet for certain parts of the game and then really game into your own in the second half when things started getting good for you! I applaud you for it! I know there are some clubs out there with fans that don't sing so its all good in my book!

He beat 5 defenders actually. Just go have your period somewhere else. We often have opposition fans on here, but none cause aggro like you. Keyboard warrior, feck off.

Um...yes I did go to the game actually.

Block 20 - Row Z - Seat 20

I was right on the centre line about half way up the stand.

I was there for the whole game and when I said Tap in, I meant it like this. We attacked you full out. Your players (to their credit) came at us on most occassions. You made it hard for us. We on the other hand made it easy for you. When you came at us, we backed off. We LET you come at our goal. We LET you in! Your lad past three players because they let him go past. It's something we're actually really bad at and so I wasn't suprised when you scored. I practically guessed you were going to score the minute you got the ball. It's all in the body language. Your lads were confident but by no means was it hard for them to get into the position to score. At the other end, we had to fight you tooth and nail to get into scoring positions and unfortunately we didn't make it count.

I'm praising your players mate. Please don't take this as a slight. I want no argument with you. I am simply giving you my opinion of the game based on what I saw while watching it. You on the other hand seem to want an argument. You want to have a go at us Cov fans and your jumping on everything and anything you can in order to rip us to shreds. But me, I'm quite happy to let you get on with it, listen, reply in a kind and polite way and continue doing so until you see I'm not going to rise (in an aggressive manner) to your posts ;)

No arrogance from us kid. We know our limitations. We know this tie ain't over. Has any Crewe fan said Wembley is sown up? Nope.

Just 'lording it' to you arrogant city types that expected to turn us over with ease. You had more shots, more possession etc, but we scored 3 times. You didn't score at all.

I personally think you still have a chance of progression. However, last night we did you. On the pitch and in the stands. That's a fact.

U did us in the stands?

Are you being serious?

Yes but our own supporters do the same on other clubs forums.

It's to be expected.

The true test of a fan is to actually have a decent discussion with them.

Unfortunately it usually turns into insults and veiled comments about their mothers lol :D

What you been in then?
Click to expand...

I was wondering when this comment would appear ;)

I'm a touring actor. I mainly do Childrens Theatre and TIE (Theatre in Education) which involves me going to primary and secondary schools across the country. I believe I may have been to Crewe also lol

I do Panto too. Recently played the Dame in Sleeping Beauty and all the male characters (apart from Scrooge) in A Christmas Carol.

I've also done student films and short films etc. Only been professional for the past 2 and half years. Thats a very short time so far but I've been pretty busy and thats what matters!

If you wanna see my profile (and two trailers for films I was involved in) then look up Harry Haylings in google. Casting Call Pro should appear on the first page and the trailers are either at the bottom of the first page or somewhere on the 2nd page :)
