Behind enemy lines..

So I've been offered a ticket to the game tomorrow for free! But here's the catch....it's in the stretford end.

So in light of this offer, does anybody have any stories about being amongst enemy ranks and can anyone offer tips on blending in?

Just remembered another couple of times I did it.

A mate who had a season-ticket at Southampton got me a ticket for the stand opposite his on the touchline , and he told me afterwards he knew exactly where I was sitting, because only one person celebrated in the entire stand when Liverpool scored. .
Bit daft, really, and I wouldn’t do it now, but I sensed that the atmosphere wasn’t all that aggressive. The rivalry’s hardly intense.

Another time, at Palace, a mate and I celebrated, but reasonably quietly, and we didn’t stand up. That was fine, but another Liverpool fan, about 10 rows back, got kicked out for “over-celebrating”, which attracted the attention of some local d.ickheads.

It wasn’t really him who kicked off, but the Stewards had no choice but to hoik him out. Hoiking out the locals would have inflamed it.

Celebrating is a definite no-no.

If Young starts scream out DIVE DIVE DIVE every time he gets the ball I think you will get some reaction

I remember being in the away end at Wrexham when Rooney scored his first goals for us. Being Welsh i did not join in with the sheep sh@gger chants.

Stoke fans were doing the same thing at Swansea untill Tony Pullis gave them a glare as he is Welsh

I was at the Ajax v Liverpool one time Ajax was winning and then Fowler scored the equaliser my mate and jumped up and celebrated without thinking and then there was chorus of boo's it was great fun though

My missus sat with me the year Sheff United were in teh PL. She had her shirt on under her jacket and it got pointed out every time we scored....plenty of light hearted banter.

If you start celebrating and people start complaining the stewards will probably kick you out. If your lucky they will put you in the away end...if not then it'll be out the stadium.

Agree with the "wear a Fellaini wig" suggestion, but incorporate a red nose to go with it.

I did it at old toilet about ten years ago when Jar Jar Binks scored in injury time for them to win one nil. Never again, worse thing was I was sitting within striking distance of James Nesbit and missed my opportunity, hate that p3n1s.
