Hate Corner

The club can't allow hate corner to return as it will create to much noise for the locals ;) plus the policing bills will increase.
 

Hate Corner

its ok ive still got me own??? mind you we would do a proper job loads of risk assesments , and comply fully with health and safety and all the p p e and tea mugs lol
 

Hate Corner

Be good to see Hate Corner as it used to be on Sunday. The club have sold tickets for A block so it will be full! Can't wait!
 

Hate Corner

then we started putting flag's up at the back and the club called a meeting ....lol was fun ...the way i see what is the point of being behind the goal you should be next to the away fans get a bit of banter going ....
 

Hate Corner

Hate corner to return at Lionel Road? In the East or North Stand?
 

Hate Corner

Was that at the Bristol Rovers game where they tore us a new one?
He was very “chippy” that day as I recall.
 

Hate Corner

That's not some thing really to be proud of ,is it ?

I don’t believe a 50 pence was ever thrown but this knob decided to do some over the top play acting!! The failure to mention the incident in this interview where he mentions various other objects being thrown at him throughout his career says it all.

Yeah righto, an old firm game with 50k attendance is on a par with Brentford v Bristol Rovers in the 3rd division with a 6k crowd

Each to their own but I would say brentford getting hammered by Bristol city and Walters faking being struck by a 50 pence piece is bigger than 50k people turning up to low grade Scottish football with pigs heads and bananas

Good for you champ.
 

Hate Corner

bizarro world

when i saw the thread title, i recalled that Hate Corner was great fun when i was growing up, but that I remember it starting to sour when some moronic meathead next to me was throwing stuff at Mark Walters. little did i know that was the very topic under discussion lol

i was a teenager (and soft) at the time, so i didn't run and grass or anything, just grimly held on. but it wasn't pleasant. and it wasn't the game when they whooped us, cos i missed that one.
 

Hate Corner

The Mark Walters incident I re call happened at the corner of New Road And Ealing Rd, and was caused by his over the top celebration.
 

Hate Corner

Hate Corner was closed after Millwall created havoc and coined a young (female) Bees fan I thought

Definitely feigned injury in front of Hate Corner. They were good days.

Indeed...bees fans got the blame for it and the old bill went into NR instead of the brook rd corner where all their chaps were....the met chicken squad ;) at their most woeful
 

Hate Corner

That's exactly how I remember it, rather than as has been trying to sell a book!

:sorted:

:confused: Hullbee's complaint was that he DIDN'T mention us lol

and i just said that, for me, it "started to sour" with that game. the beginning of the end, not the end of the end ;)
 

Hate Corner

Just can’t see the newbees and prawn sandwich brigade knowing what hate corner stood for.??

Yep, can’t believe it was 20 years ago.
Seem to recall we were all moved across one block during the game and then had season tickets reallocated for the next home game.

It was annoying as although it was lively it never felt edgy or like it was going to kick off.
(Alright maybe Cardiff at Christmas and that time against Swansea).

Mainly remember joining in with the witty and funny people that made the games so enjoyable, despite being less than average on the pitch.

But in a way that’s the great opportunity. We have to fill a 17,250 stadium going forward, whereas the core ‘old git’/GPG support is only 4-5k. Like many on here I stood on the old Royal Oak, have been to Macclesfield, Darlo, you name it, have the Eddie Hutchinson, Carl Hutchings t-shirt, know the difference between Deano and Dean Smith, but (on one level) that’s all in the past. We’re going to have to welcome nearly 5-6,000 ‘new Brentford’ fans to Lionel Road whilst somehow keeping all that’s good about Griffin Park and making it a really welcoming but also bleedin’ intimidating place to go. Fantastic opportunity
 

Hate Corner

Is the paddock the current equivalent?

No way. It was when the dugouts were over there, been tame ever since. Shame really as the walk for the away manager (simpson etc) and the in game antics really got the atmosphere going at GP. Add to that the atmosphere Brook Road used to get going along with the Paddock, it made GP a real hostile place for away teams.

Yes, Peter Jackson used to regularly remark on how intimidating it was.

I love looking across to hate corner and picking the seat I once stood on the back off on the back row all them years ago with a plastic cease mark from me standing on it still their,

My Hate Corner's greatest hits would probably be:

Luton 1998
Swansea 1999
Notts County (the Owers incident) 2000
Bristol City play-off semi 1997
WBA league cup 1998

It was already going downhill by the time that Millwall game came around IMO...

love it when a player over that side acts up, little do they know ha, see the paddock boys all rise and give it some. lol the illuminuous jackets come running out. But yeah not the same since the dugouts were moved over, although that’s created some good moments for us middle of new road :D

Seem to remember some boisterous-ness when Wrexham and Gillingham were in town, too.

Agree with this but with a small caveat:

Inside GP - Swansea
Outside GP - Luton

Some very fun times in Hate Corner. I can clearly recall that day Cardiff came to town. I was probably 17, 18 and one of my mates had just got his first car. We were a gobby little of group of youngsters. I remember parking up in the Bull building car park on Great West Road, and when getting out of the car, a transit with about 8 Cardiff blokes pulled in, saw us and started banging the windows to get out and pulling throat cut gestures. It set the tone for the afternoon. Remember seeing hundreds of them gathered in the car park to the flats at the corner with brook / new road. We was a bit less gobby that day, and thereafter :D

Yep, definitely a bit of “bus w*nkers” about it
