Re: Best Fans in the Land

Let's not forget the special ones, the 10 brave folk who drove to Hereford for the FA Trophy match, on a Tuesday night. Bravo!

Singing Red'n'White Army for the ENTIRE second half away to Morecambe in the Lancs Trophy, I was absolutely hoarse by the end, and still kept on singing...even though we got absolutely battered, and had Rory Prendergast and Dean Calcutt sent off.

Leaving Cambridge Uniteds ground after a 3-1 mauling, and singing as loud and proud as we could, inciting some cows in the process.

Travelling all the way to Colchester on a Tuesday night, not being allowed in the pubs when we got there, having to use some of the most foul toilets known to man (which were to be used by both men and women!), being spat at by Col U's animals, watching Coley get himself into a spot of bother at half-time, losing until very late on in the game and STILL we sang loud and proud.

At the end of the day, whether 10 or a 1000 turn up, whether we win, lose or draw, whether we've had a long or short journey, whether the match has been really important and fills us with dread and nerves, or whether we are playing in the mickey mouse cup, whether it rains or shines, whoever the opposition, wherever in the Country we are, whatevr we've put up with to get to the match and whatever we have to put up with at the match, we will always be as loud and proud as possible, and THAT is what makes us the greatest set of fans in football.
