What do American fans do before a game.

[Mel B]

Is there something you do the same before the game. Wear the same socks. Put your shirt on before your jeans. Kick the dog. Beat your cat up. Just curious But i have a set routinee. 6 pints before the game. Sing my heart out for the lads. 6 pints after the game. Winner. Programmes aswell. Two every home game. Just wondering. :) :) :) :)

Thats excellent mate. I have supported NUFC pre Kevin Keegan when we were doing sh!t. Now there are alot of supporters who jumped on the Roller Coaster ride he took us on. Jumped off again when we were sh!t again. Jumped on again under Sir Bobby Robson and now have jumped off. Words fail. Glory supporters. :) :) :) :)

It varies a lot like in England, I'm sure. I live in Syracuse, NY, and we had a team in the A-league (a division down from MLS) Our attendance was very good for this league, and had a reported 6k people per game. For most people going to one of these games was like going to church. You dressed up in your special Syracuse outfit, drove your mini-van to the parking lot 15 minutes before the game. Walked in, picked your seats, and remained quiet for the duration. After the 1-1 draw was complete, you quietly withdrew to your car and thought about what you had just seen.

The management of the team tried to get people involved. There was a special supporters section called, "the renegades." This consisted of two sorry-looking guys banging on a drum non-stop for 2h. They had cheerleaders, a dj, a giant dog mascot, etc. etc. A pathetic display. It would have been better had the dj known soccer. My favorite game was when a goalkeeper from Montreal was about to take a free kick, the dj comes on a screams "CORNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER Kick." The poor Montreal goalkeeper started laughing hysterically and flubbed the kick into the stands.

Anyway, the team folded this past year. Now I have to drive to Rochester, New York to see a game. Maybe the RAGING RHINOS of Rochester will be more professionally run. They'll definitely be RAGING, as most rhinos living in Rochester would naturally be.

Americans are brilliant. The ones that think they know about football. But actually know very little. The ones like yourself sunshine are class imo. Football is the best game this planet has invented and we invented it. :) :) :) :) Rule Brittania. God Save The Queen and all that bollox.

What's even worse Mel B is that the games at Syracuse were played on a minor league baseball field. The filed was really short and narrow. It was completely artificial turf, with little dirt areas where the bases would be. Brilliant!!! It was always fun watching opposing players trip on the pitcher's mound. This was of course at the top of the box. For us true fans of soccer (football, calcio, whatever) alcohol was a true necessity.

Not all of us know nothing. I know many knowledgeable Brits and many knowledgeable Americans. Generalizations suck.

Who was generalizing. He said a commentator reporting on the game didnt know what the fcuk he was on about. Honestly. I only said that some Americans who think they know about football. Havent got a clue. Some people in England think they know about football. And they are even more retarded than the Americans.

We get drunk. A lot. Then my fiancee tells me it's time to go to the pregame drunk-fest.

Do you actually watch the football sunshine. Or just get pissed.

[Sachin]

Oh yeah, I watch the game sunshine... 90 minutes plus stoppage time of standing and singing. I don't acutally drink in the stadium, just outside.

Oh I know it. No member of either team can cross the line of scrimage while the ball is not in play. The penalty for such an infraction is 5 yards with no loss of down.

:D ;)

Incorrect sunshine. When i went to school. Player X had to run around player D whilst player F took all his clothes off and streaked on the pitch. :) :) :) :)
