Funny / Annoying things you heard on Saturday..

[bobby1413]

The atmosphere in 112 was excellent.

The only downside was the sun in our eyes for the first half.

Agree with both points.

The sun was really bad, direct in the eyes, and even putting hand up to block it, or wearing sun glasses, made the whole view really washed out.

I didn't really see much of the game in the first half as a result but still enjoyed it!

[Brum Royal]

Agreed with both points about the sun and the drummer.

We were front row of 112, and the bloke two seats down from me got chucked out after managing to get over the wires whilst celebrating GMac's equaliser. Didn't resist arrest, and the steward came over to his mate in ET to say he;d been let off without charge and was sat in a pub watching the remainder of the game.

My 11-year old daughter told me she wasn't going to come to the game ten minutes before we left Norwich if I was going to go to a pub before the game. That was a bit of a downer.

You've taught her poorly

Maybe, but she learned a life lesson after I told her I wouldn't then went to three when we got there.

three pubs is not the same as a pub.

3 pissed up Gooners abusing my 2 teenage sons as we walked back to the car. Unbelievable scum.

The scum sitting in the Club seats at our end who threw coins and bottles down onto the people below.

A group of Gooners who shouted abuse as we walked past their hired double decker bus after the game. Scum.

Joyless vermin.

What a day though, a day to remember. So,proud of the players. Fedders you are a legend.

Hope the incident was reported to the stewards.....

Fat lot of good that did, they were investigating one incident above block 116 it from the time they scored to the final whistle, The Arsenal idiot was on the front row and every time the stewards looked away he reappeared. The steward in 116 was doing all he could but as he said, he couldn't actually go up to that tier to sort it out himself.

[Forbury Lion]

Someone in 116 chanting "Stand up if you love Reading" and a guy in wheelchair in the section in front stood up

(He was genuinely disabled though, could hardly walk)

[Forbury Lion]

Saw a Reading fan with a Reading shirt on yesterday. On the back it said "Never Forget" and then 96 as the numbers. WTF? Has absolutely fcuk all to do with Reading.

Attention seeking nonsense.

Take That Fan, obviously never got over them disbanding in 1996.

[Muskrat]

Reading fans raucous walking up Wembley Way. My block (520) was very quiet, apart from three pissed up lads who were with some Spurs fans. I reckon I had an Arsenal couple next to me. Well, they stayed seated and impassive when we scored and even the rest of 520 was jumping around.
520 was the cheap seats, right up at the back, but we were pretty much level with the goal line and saw both borderline goal line incidents clearly.

What borderline goal line incidents?

I was in 517 btw enjoying a very pleasant atmos.

Indeed i was hit by a coin by one of them, the steward was really good and was just as frustrated as me that nothing was being done. He took my details, told me to complain to club wembley he was going to report it as well. Seems to me as the club wembley lot can get away with anything.

Yep, good and proper noise made in the lower tier. I can imagine that the shelf above us blocks a large amount of the noise from penetrating upwards.
I was though, bloddy frozen. The wind was icy cold and around my neck - I was sat right by the steps and the wind was blowing str8 through the concourse and down the tunnel.

The wind before the match was ridiculously strong, surprised my 6 year old nephew didn't get knocked over by it.

[CrunchieRoyal]

The tw@t sat in front of me in Block 510 that was sat watching Chelsea v Man U on his IPad.

Had to stop myself from kneeing him in the head

[MoorgateRoyal]

Two Arsenal fans walking behind my old man and me on Wembley Way after the game. One of them gleefully exclaimed to his mate that we were 'fackin shit'.

Before I could turn around and give him a bollocking (more likely bottle it and pretend I was looking at the crowd behind us), his mate pointed out that they only beat us 2-1 after extra time after being on the back foot a bit, so we couldn't be that shit.

[Royalcop]

Started off in Block 509 and seemed to be surrounded by Arsenal fans, including a prize bell who wasn't making any pretence about who he was supporting, joining in with Arsenal chants etc. After about 10 minutes I decided to move to the empty-ish block 505 which was much better and allowed me to collect about 5 extra t-shirts

Where were you sat? I think I was sat on the row in front of you. Seat 47 behind the wheelchair users.

I thought the Drummer was brillaint on Saturday.

I was in 108 so I was quite close to the drummer and was worried that the contstant noise would get annoying. How wrong I was, it really added to the atmosphere and meant that everyone was singing the same songs.

Shout out to the bloke stood next to me (he was on his own) who i suspected was an Arsenal fan the whole game as he was quiet throughout and then he went abosultely batsh*t crazy when GMac scored.

The scenes for that goal were unreal and is something that i'll never forget. Genuinely such a brilliant day that started at 11:00 in the Three Guineas. The atmosphere in the Torch was great even if it did take 20 mins to get served.

Oh and i still get goosebumps when I think about 20,000+ Reading fans singing "Reading till I die" towards the end of ET.

Arsenal fans on the tube after the game were all complimentary of our support and team as well.

Well nice to see you and not speak to you.

[Royal Lady]

I put this somewhere else, but I was in tears of laughter waiting for the players to come out of their hotel - we have some great wit amongst our fans. We cheered everybody who came out and in the end, a few hotel guests embraced it and came out like they were film stars or something. Felt bad when some people chanted "you fat bastard" to a large man entering the hotel though!

There was a drummer
I guess the noise from the crowd drowned it out from where I was sitting.
