Stanley_ Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 (edited) Malta v Bulgaria in the Euro 2016 qualifiers. Glasgow Uni v Buckie Thistle in the Scottish Cup Dunfermline in the 2007 Scottish Cup semi against a very obscure team. I didn't go to the semi final replay which attracted just 8.5k fans. Various Slough Town non-league matches. Also a Kingstonian match but can't even remember who they were playing (my uncle used to live close to their old ground).

Jamboross Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Not all that obscure but Deportivo de la Coruna vs Leganes a few years ago. The Riazor is a cracking stadium right on the beach but was barely half full and there was zero atmosphere, both teams were terrible and it finished 2-1 to Leganes. The Depor fans around me were more interested in eating their huge bags of sunflower seeds than watching the match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Costanza Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Telford United v Hibs in a pre season friendly in 1998. Was with a group of mates on holiday somewhere in England. Can't remember where but must have been crap as we drove about 2 hours to watch this game (couple of mates are Hibs fans) for something to do. Remember nothing from the game other than some Hibs casuals getting chased out of the ground and having to vault over a wall to escape.

millerjames398 Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 I used to go to a lot of stirling Albion games with my mate and his dad in my youth, who are binos daft, so been to a few different places for games, watching them v livi at meadowbank on a freezing Tuesday night, and im sure it was some kind of record for the lowest paying crowd at a Scottish game, something like 128 folk there, and 80 odd actual payin customers, the other punters must have been comped..we payed though😂, Jason young was playin for livi that night as well, wee hearts connection. Hearts v dynamo tblisi in the late 80s was one i enjoyed, they were shit hot, seemed kinda mysterious, doin mad 2 v 2 drill before the game, while our forward just hit shots at Henry😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uche played and it was an awful game. The game finished 0-0 we ended up in the pub across from the ground after and it was just full of Hearts Hibs Rangers and celtic fans the same idea as us. All four groups pretty much had a friendly sing off and we were all politely asked to leave 😂 4 of us left Blackburn early doors in the early 80s to watch Carlisle v Leeds (Scottish cup weekend when we were already out). Car broke down in Breich, we knew the problem but had no tools. Knocked the nearest door and Arthur Duncan came out in his stripey dressing gown to lend us them.

They played their home games at North Sydney Oval on Friday evenings. There was a bar on the terracing which was largely full of ex pats who'd adopted Spirit as their team. The football was shite but the carry on was magic. The casual racism when a Greek or Croat team were in town was hilarious. I used to watch Northern Spirit back then too. Stopped when Rangers bought into them. My son plays for their youth team now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flankengott Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 I went for a boozy football weekend in Germany with a couple of mates in October 2019. Over on the Friday back on the Monday. Was a brilliant weekend, packed with laughs. On the Saturday we went to SC Freiburg v Leipzig (not the obscure game). Fantastic game in a great wee stadium, with Freiburg deservedly coming out on top (2-1) with goals by Hofler and Nils Peterson. Leipzig got a late consolation. On the Sunday we took a train to a wee wine village about half an hour south of Freiburg and saw a sixth tier game in the Südbadische Verbandsliga between FC Auggen and SC Lahr. It was an absolute pleasure to be there. The sun was shining.The locals were welcoming. The bar was open and cheap. The football was honest and energetic, with the occasional bit of gratuitous niggle to keep the crowd fired up. At half-time a committee member tapped you on the shoulder to collect the entrance money and remind you that the bar was open.The home team won, and we went back to the bar for a jug or two of wine before catching the train back to Freiburg for a few drinks. Nothing beats a game of football somewhere you haven‘t been before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwindonJambo Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 (edited) August 1990: Swindon Town v Hibs in a pre season friendly/testimonial for John Trollope, who still holds the English record for most appearances for 1 club. Here's the teamsheet: https://www.footballprogrammes.net/football-testimonial-benefit-c-95/john-trollope-testimonial-benefit-match-swindon-town-1990-hibs-p-56753.html 3 Scots in the Swindon lineup - captain Colin Calderwood (excellent player who later joined Tottenham and mismanaged Hibs) Future sheep Duncan Shearer Confirmed Jambo Ross McLaren from Balerno in midfield. The Hobbits brought a travelling support of around 100 Neanderthals. All was going to plan when Shearer put Swindon 1 up early on. I turned up for the game in my Hearts top and a Cup Final flag hidden under my denim jacket. There were certainly a handful of other Jambos in the Swindon end and I wandered up to the segregation fence where the singers gathered. There I met a local in a Hearts top and the crowd around me asked me to teach them a Hearts song. Within a minute I had several hundred in full voice with 'When the Hearts go marching in'. Out came my maroon and white flag, waving around. The Neanderthals went ballistic, being totally outsung and at one point I thought they were actually going to chew their way through the fence - they were like savages. Shortly after, I saw 2 Constables heading in our direction so I bundled up my flag pronto and buttoned up my jacket to ensure no colours were visible. I stood in silence playing innocent while the police forcefully questioned the lad in the Hearts top with a local accent demanding the flag while I had moved a step forward on the terrace and stood in silence with all colours concealed. Fair play to the lad - I didn't even get his name and he really took one for the team and probably protected me from being lifted ( and probably deservedly). I was a young fool of 23 then and wouldn't dream of doing anything similar even a few short years later. Unfortunately Paul Kane's double put the mutants 2-1 up before Shearer made the final score 2-2. A memorable evening 😁 Thankfully this was not repeated the next time I saw Hibs play - later that same season when Andy Goram's brilliance restricted us to a 3-1 win at Tynie prompting the Jambos to sing his name. @Dagger Is Back A while back I began telling you this tale of woe and left it hanging.

A Boy Named Crow Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 On 12/02/2021 at 02:56, Tazio said: I went to the Australian grand final in Brisbane a few years ago. I was in town working and spotted it was on so got a ticket and went along on my own. It was the same week we beat Celtic in the 2012 semi final. 55k in the stadium, brilliant organisation with free buses from the town centre to Suncorp Stadium. Very different atmosphere to a British game. Something I realised very quickly when a player was brought down in the box and got no penalty. I jumped to my feet and let the referee know my opinion using standard football language and nearly everyone where I was sitting turned round and stared in shock. The next week I went to and Aussie Rules game and felt a lot more at home in the crowd for that. I got the feeling that the football crowd were a bit more middle class than the Rules fans. Aye, they deliberately removed all the "nastiness" from the A-League. They'd had issues in the past with different teams being followed by folk based on their Euripeam heritage, and all the aggro that entailed. Family friendly, pseudo EPL wannabe is order of the day now. Agrwed, f you're used to proper football, NRL and AFL are really your best options!
