I was amused by the pikeys singing that our ground was like a library. How would they know? Not many gypsies go into Librarys as reading is not a skill that they possess, so a Library would be as much use to them as an ashtray on a motorbike.

I thought this thread would be about another Matt Williams masterstroke.

We do take some getting going sometimes but once the crowd is awoken then we do ok I think!

To be honest, for the first half last night I think I'd have had more fun in a library.

Neither set of fans lit the place up with atmosphere last night, but the funny thing is the Bescott was absulotely silent a couple of weeks ago then they have the cheek to criticise us, there's no comparison.

Better than their place Saturday. That was more like a morgue.

If it keeps the poor souls amused. To me this was as amusing as the "Sheepsh@ggers" "You're Welsh and you know you are" and "Shrewsbury's a sh*thole" songs
I have to agree though it was very quiet in the first half, recall hearing most of the shouts made by players on the pitch only surprised that I couldn't hear MM and MJ shouting from the other side of the pitch.

The moment anybody from Walsall starts singing about wanting to go home, you don't need to take anything they say seriously.

I think they have a point.
It can be a souless place at times, despite us having the best footie to watch in a generation.

"Shrewsbury's a sh*thole" songs . The irony of this was almost overwhelming.

The any old iron chants sounded very good.

The pikeys do go to a library , usually to be found on the roof nicking the lead.Easy mistake for them to make , read - lead ? Best not to mention ashtrays on motorbikes , they'd be nicking them too if they thought they could get a few quid for em . Once a pikey always a pikey .

Think that despite the "rivals" tag part of the reason it was quiet last night is neither side had any great recent history. With Bradshaw out I hardly knew anyone in the Walsall side and guess they were equally in the dark about our side
A few seasons of playing each other would give as pantomime villains in both sides to boo and shout at. Last night just felt like an average lower league game with no great rivalry
The off the pitch stuff was cringeworthy to. Our fans making gypsy comments and theirs making sheep noises was like being in primary school. Thank goodness for the African dancers for injecting a bit of positivity to the evening

Our ground and the atmosphere aren't great
But it's still 10x better than that s**t biscuit tin. The atmosphere there is horrific! Didn't even hear Sheep Shagging barstewards once at the Buscuit Tin 2 weeks ago!

Have good friends from both categories as well as Welsh friends. I also think some of the best "Irish" jokes that I have heard have been told by Irish people. I assume you are offended by gypsy banter but don't mind being referred to as sheep sh*ggers.

I assume you are offended by gypsy banter but don't mind being referred to as sheep sh*ggers. I don't join the gypsy banter, as I don't know any gypsies. I'm sure you know as well as I do, that there some smashing areas of Walsall. Did you know that Wayne Clarke used to, or may well still live there? I went to his house. I didn't know it was his, but as I was leaving, he rolled up in his car, asked politely what I was doing, and when I told him I had to visit several other houses in the road, he jumped on a bike and rode down with me, waiting at the end of the drives for me to reappear, chatting about football. I swear on my mums grave this is a true story. He said he loved his time playing for us, and told me a few football related tales.
I told an irish joke in the Powerleagues last night, which was told by an irish comedian many years ago, I've forgotten his name now, but he had us in stitches. I was also friends with an Irishman who played the "tick" irish fella brilliantly.
Whatever you do, don't take the mickey out of the police, there posters on here who trawl the internet looking for people like you.

Oh the irony of Walsall fans singing about the atmosphere in the other team's ground or singing that the opposition town is a s**thole. Must have their tongues firmly planted in their cheeks. Whatever next? Hereford (do they still exist??) fans singing that the opposition fans are inbred, cider-swilling, bull-buggering bumpkins? Vale fans accusing their rivals of being low-life, hooligan, slum-dwelling scumbags?

They are dirty, rotten, stinking liers............with only a few elements of truth in it.

It's meant as a loff. They have a good sense of humour over that way. Just like Newport County singing, "you're welsh, and you know you are". I lived over in the Black Country, and really enjoyed their dry sense of ihumour. I liked it that much, I even married one of their wenches, and brought her over this neck of the woods to educate her, but she still caw spake proper. As I tell her regularly, (when I make sure the door is open), "bloody yam yams".
