Toast Types of people at the footy

[rfctigerarmy]

The neutral who is sitting with their friends and insists on yelling out "Go Pies!" (or whatever club) early on in the match.

Ahhh now we know you don't support either team. So glad to be informed.

I once went to a Harthorn v Carlton game and bought a Hawthorn scarf such is my dislike for Carlton. Couldn't bring myself to say Go Hawks though

I didn't explain in my post very well, but say it's Hawthorn v Carlton, the neutral (eg a Pies supporter), yells "Go Pies!" (who aren't playing) so others around know they're a neutral / don't support either team.

* no id never get out alive if i tried that at a Carlton game.

 

[Demonic Ascent]

The "Bring back the biff(er)"

A middle aged man, incapable of biffing any longer - usually cheering on any dog shot or non-football act. Refers to the elite athletes running around in peak physical condition as "weak as piss" and "soft campaigners"

Can often be seen with a mid-strength beer in his hand and 10-15 in his belly. Police escort and "hey hey, goodbye" chants accompany his inevitable early, unplanned departure from the venue - regardless of result.

After the cops release him with a verbal he takes the opportunity to beat the crowd out of the game and head down to the "Cas" or King St for a cheeky kebab and a prime seat at Spearmint Rhino or Mens Gallery.

People that go to the football are nuffies.

Younger versions getting some "cocaine"* and acting as if they are Pablo Escobar.

* A bag of white power containing maybe 25 per cent cocaine.

Had 3 versions yesterday that have all previously been stated.

1. The old lady with her pen and her record sitting 2 seats down. Didn't miss a goal. Love these types.
2. The "neutral" who has sarcastic jibes at both teams.
3. The one eye commentator/coach. Directing traffic, calling the play so we all knew who was open or who had the ball. This fazed out as the game went on and the game got tight.

 

[PieLebo87]

The crack-pisser

Every so often, you'll spot one - zero shame at the urinal, while everyone else just unzips their fly he'll proudly pull his pants and underwear completely below his butt and show everyone just how he likes to piss unencumbered by any fabric within 25cm of his junk.

I guess I’m doing it wrong then

 

[PieLebo87]

No matter what, our beautiful game allows for all these different types of people, and we’re blessed to be able to sit all together, regardless of which footy club we support compared to other codes around the world where we get caged like animals on opposite ends of the other team’s supporters.

 

[PieLebo87]

‘The Nostradamus’ aka PieLebo87

“That’s going to be holding the ball.”
- umpire calls holding the ball.

“X team looks on, Y team will need to slow the tempo otherwise they’ll get run over.”
- X team goes on a run of 5-6 goals.

“He’ll kick it. Suits his left to right.”
- player dobs it from 50 out on the boundary.

Two more types I encountered at the game yesterday

1) The "Neutral Troll". A variation of the Joker/'Funnyman' stereotype in that he doesn't support either team, so he's doubly insufferable because he makes sarcastic snarky comments about BOTH competing teams. Usually a young man with glasses and a hipster beard, thinks he's so 'funny' with his trolls against both sets of supporters. Often eventually ends up uniting opposition fans against him.....

2) The "Drunk Philosopher". After 10 rum-and-cokes inside them, they begin waxing lyrical on the game and engaging in 'deep' conversations with friend and foe alike. Win, lose, or draw, they never get too excited or pessimistic ("the season is a long one, no-one knows what the future holds"), they respect the opposition ("youse blokes are a good side in the making I reckon, just need a few more pre-seasons and you'll be right back up there again") and are modest about their own team's achievements ("we're looking good this year but i don't want us to get ahead of ourselves").

I've been both of these supporters - within the last month to be more exact.

The guy who goes

 

[NorthernBastard]

11 year old kid wearing shorts and a footy jumper to the footy, it's 6 degrees.

Parents who allow their kids freeze at the footy when it's 6 degrees (dad has a XXXL footy jumper over the top of his hoody)

To be fair I think a lot of these kids genuinely don’t feel the cold. I used to get home from school every day, throw on my footy jumper and shorts and go kick the footy in the backyard, was never cold.

Every Saturday you always see little kids at their local club running around in their footy jumper, parents are begging them to put a jacket on but they refuse.

They might feel fine, but it makes me feel cold!!

Went to the footy last weekend in perth ( let’s not talk about that game shall we)

I’m in a wool singlet , jumper , snow jacket , beanie and thick socks and still cold .

A group of young girls rock up a few rows down in boob tubes and mini skirts .
And no I was not being a dirty old man , genuinely made me feel cold seeing them

 

[Dogs_R_Us]

My mother put a jumper on me whenever she felt cold

Appearance is everything to that age group. Even if they wear a jacket it’s hanging off one shoulder.

 

[mikey127]

The supporter that tries to start singing the club song after a draw. Hopes others will join in but after a lime or 2 realises no one is joining in and gives up.

 

[mikey127]

The person that gets to the game 2 hours early an posts a photo of the empty stadium on Facebook saying 'go Cats' or whatever team
