Gentlemen ladies not sure what I call people on here? I'm a gas head wife (well kinda think I am) - I'm married to Trevor gas (user name not Trevor Gas real life name). I've been to 5 or 6 rovers matches in 18 years - I've usually sat in a stand or a few
Years ago I experienced "executive box thing" at Rovers ground - the chicken dinner was wonderful - our son was mascot I got the privelege of helping our disabled son to get dressed in the laundry room at the mem (get me I've been listening to my hubbie "mem")! Anyway I am going to the match this Sunday - Oxford - (get me I remembered the team name) - my hubbie has got us into the "blackthorn end" - (sounds painful) I'm aware I have to stand but would appreciate any advice as to what I need to do or not do? I know not to wear red but I'm a complete Virgin in all of this and want to get it right! UTG (get in I remembered)!

Mrs Baden gas has much the same background and lost her terrace virginity on the last day of last season. She was somewhere between terrified and stupidly excited. Wear blue and white, enjoy the day.

Just soak up the atmosphere and enjoy! The atmosphere /noise tends to be better near the middle but don't stand right at the back - thats where all the young rowdies stand. Dont be offended by the language, I find myself joining in the colourful chants (got to be done) but what goes at football stays at football. Got to be broad minded but I absolutely love the terrace humour.
As a fellow girlie I would recommend you stand immediately behind one of the safety railings, it'll help you stay on your feet when we score.
Hope you enjoy yourself and are hooked from Sunday onwards.

Don't remark on how one of their players' arses is cuter than one of ours.
Or that their boots clash with their socks.
Or give advice on the best way to get rid of grass stains from white shorts.

"my hubbie has got us into the "blackthorn end" no expense spared then by your old man? The best advice is probably stay way from the middle of the terracing!

There is no Blackthorn end.
It's the Thatchers End.
F Blackthorn, they don't pay us.

Be well showered, as you will be tightly packed in on Sunday, but don't expect anyone else to be.
Old footballing trick, put a tiny dollop of Vicks just inside your nose, so at least you won't be offended by BO.

Out sing,out drink and out eat your hubby(if you got a babber with you look them in the eye and say now you know whose boss).
If the filth give you hassle keep calm and assertively give them hell.
Don't look at matteee pic with the cup before going and don't keep asking hubby which player is big mattteeeeee.
When we score don't be afraid to jump around as if you accidentally punch someone it really is ok, Likewise don't get upset or offended if you get shoved around during a goal celebration.
Learn some songs and start a few off, if hubbys not singing ask him in a loud voice why he's so quiet.
If you wanna eff n blind feel free ,it's football not the popes weddung.
Just be yourself do what you want within reason, but most of all just enjoy being part of the gas family whilst stood next to hubby, theres no better feeling in the world.

Get hubbie to teach you the songs so you can get into it.
Be unshockable
Wear a crash helmet for when we score. (joking)
Don't stand in front of a fat person for the same reason (not joking)
Buy a beer or three before the game
Eat a pastie and cup of tea at half time.
CAPTURE THE MOMENT AND RECALL YOUR EXPERIENCE.
Enjoy!

There is no Blackthorn end. It's the Thatchers End. F Blackthorn, they don't pay us. I agree. I don't get why people romanticise about a name, when that name is just a sponsor. |

Relax, you will be in with a great crowd of Gasheads
Don't be afraid to 'glam up' a bit if you want to - there are lots of lovely ladies of all ages at the Mem
If you hear the "C---" word being used out loud, it's OK to ask security to sort it out when you go for a natural break, or a pastie
Watch out - being a Rovers fan is addictive !
