You been spying on me? ;-)
I celebrated by carefully placing my dandelion and burdock back down on the table and gave a 10 second burst of 2 fingered royalty applause. It was an exciting day all round - before the game had started I updated my browser bookmark from BBC League 2 to League 1. What a Sunday!
Somehow don't think that's what Aerosmith envisioned .That's what I call living on the edge.

We got covered at Wembley when our second goal went in. Block 233.After one of our goals at Wembley a lad a few to my left hurled part of a pint about 10 rows forward. Covered a load of people. Thoughtless
State of this
Media getting themselves all worked up about it about England fans celebrating, looking like bellends more like.
Pointless. A pub local to me got trashed after the Tunisia game with someone throwing a pint at the projector and breaking it. Smashed glass all over the floor as well.
I tend to avoid the horrendously overcrowded pubs like that now on matchdays, watched it at 2 other places with maybe 20 other people in there.
I think you would know if it wasn't beer by the smell or if you happened to taste it. :emoji_stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:I got covered at Wembley by something (I hope it was beer!) that some tosser thought it was a laugh throwing the contents of his plastic cup after the second goal.
Really? People getting annoyed about this? So what. It's kids mainly. If they want to waste their beer let them. If property is damaged that's different. If someone gets hurt, same. But that video above is just youthful stupidity. Who cares.
December 1983When we played Liverpool at HR and won 4-0 (Gibbo hat trick) the 3rd goal was scored a few seconds before half-time. Loads of blokes had bought their half-time pies and beer in advance of a rush when the whistle went. Gibbo scores and all the beers went up in the air !
Can't remember the year so can someone enlighten me please ? Probably 30-35 years ago ?

Why's it going to happen if there's a goal?
It's another reason to prevent drinking in view of the pitch because people feel the need to lob pints into the air.
I can understand accidentally spilling a pint when there's a goal and you get excited but what idiot deliberately chucks a pint in the air.
a) beer is not cheap
b) what goes up must come down
Can't think of much worse places to watch an England game than somewhere like that. Probably the the same kind of people who sing the awful 10 German bombers song.
Turning your back on the club in its darkest hour...I kept meaning to change mine from league one to league two and never got around to it

Because when there’s a goal the sudden out pouring of emotion can cause your arms to go above your head before you’ve realised you’ve got the pint in your hand.
I still can't see it, why don't people throw their phones and other objects?
I've thrown my son in the air a number of times, does that count?
I've been known to go apeshit, it's what football does to you. Never understood how some people can stay so restrained during a goal celebration.
This stuff with the beer is silly. But if they're doing it amongst themselves and choosing to stand there knowing what will happen, well so what. They're kids most of them. I think back to some of the stuff I did watching football in my late teens and cringe.
It’s also not like they’re spilling or dropping their pints with excitement, as some are making out, they are actively throwing them several metres. It’s almost like trying to prove a point “look how much this means to me compared to you”.

It’s the same twats that were singing the Dambusters song during the German anthem in Dortmund or those that were booing the Dutch one. It’s great to have several thousand turn up. Volgograd and Nizhny were superb though. Smaller numbers but we didn’t get the “stag doo crowd”. Kaliningrad could potentially put a downer on this whole trip due to that.
No, I understand spilling a pint during a celebration. But full on throwing a pint over 30 ppl is stupid. Shit pint in a plastic glass you paid best part of £6-£7 for and you throw it 30 rows away because we scored a goal?!?! VERY strange.I can understand if they’re watching a match. If someone was holding a drink and suddenly there’s a goal it’s going to happen. What I don’t get is why large groups start doing it when there’s a chant. It’s pre planned or at least enough time to know it’s going to happen. What’s the point?!
Funny thing is this is after beating the worst world Cup side in years. Be like cov putting 6 past Stratford Town in the fa Cup and then going mental trashing the place saying we're going to Wembley
How many times have we played teams like that and been frustrated? I remember Trinidad and Tobago holding us at 0-0 until 80 minutes in. How about 2010? The Sun's headline was E-A-S-Y after the groups were drawn. We came second in that group. We're playing very well this World Cup, which is a refreshing change. I'm not on record saying it on this forum, but I thought Southgate would've been a good choice even before Allardyce was appointed (who I also think would've done quite well).
Agreed that a lot of people were overdoing it, the game was secured when we went 2-0 up so there's no need for going crazy. I was at the Lille fan zone in 2016 when Sturridge scored his last-minute winner v Wales - that justified the scenes of hundreds of litres of pints of beer in the air and people jumping, sliding around in mud puddles. It's not for me though.
I was in Lens in the Stadium for the Wales game - the beer in the ground was 0.5% UEFA Approved Carlsberg, so was well worth chucking in the air!!
How did you get England tickets btw? I want to follow us in 2020. Tickets for England (and a few other nations) games on Viagogo were horrendous (I don't recommend using them!) but ended up going to Wales v Russia, which was a quality game, shame I was in the Russia end.
