Vale fans

[hanwell bee]

I was throughly impressed with the Vale fans yesterday (apart from the few mindless ones who shouted out in the minutes silence). A special mention has to go to a Vale fan called Brian who we met on the way up. Not only did he insist on buying us coffee and food as soon as we met him, he arranged to meet us after the game and paid for 3 of us to go in a cab back to bristol. Cost him close to £100, but he wouldn't take any of our money! Also i stood outside Gate 1 for 10 minutes in my Brentford shirt at the end and didn't get one bit of abuse.

me, my brother and 4 neutrals who came with us ended up in a 100% Port Vale pub before the game and it was great. No hint of trouble, we got them singing Hey Jude, in fact they sang it better than we sang it in the ground...

i ended up with the vale somehow but all they did was help me back into the bees section

To continue this rather shockingly nice thread, I too met up with a top Vale bloke before the game in the pub, and he was just a genuinely nice guy and decent football fan.

To me it showed what the LDV was all about - a fan's day out. Because let's be honest, no one was really bothered about winning the thing were they?

Were they?!!

I lost my little puppy and a port vale fan found it for me and in return i gave them a nice bunch of flowers.

[Railway Side Bee]

Yeah, agree. I personally wouldn't mind feeling the way I did yesterday towards the oppo fans every week. it beats the hell out of Ninian park & the New Den. Fair play to you Vale.

To make it even more remarkable,he must of been a very ,very ( probably Vale fan) northerner as my wife charges me £110,or £95 for sloppy seconds

She only charges me £20 for 'first go'. I'd have a word with her if I was you.
£95 to stir my porridge? She's obviously not a Vale fan is she?

Ah ha ! Putting two and two together ,Ive found the owner of the size 10 Dr Martins which did up with velcro.Theyve been under the bed for weeks.I'll drop them off in the Bricklayers for you

This thread was going so nice untill BigBee joined in.

 

[big neil]

spoke to a vale fan in the oz bar who looked like uncle fester
and got poked by a **** with a vale flag who thought i was his mate, even though i was wearing a bees shirt. f*** knows what he was drinking but he probably doesn't realise they've won yet!!

 

[Dago Bee]

I assume that the 'B' of Big 'B' doesn't stand for brains

 

[Bigbee]

Some people just don't understand your sense of humour do they mate?

BTW the DM's don't belong to me, but if you find a long plank of wood under the bed then that's mine - I had to strap it to me arse to stop myself 'falling' in..........

 

[GlasgowBee]

Youve got to admit that it makes a bloody nice change for all the fans to drink together before a game and not have one hint of animosity between any fans. The Guardian galdly reported there was not one arrest in cardiff at all. I think ourselves and vale should take alot of pride in at least showing how two sets of supporters can at least respect each other (shame about the silence, tossers on both sides)

Big respect to all the vale fans we chatted with in the pubs, they were a decent lot

Travelled back to Leics after the game which meant that we shared the M50/M5 with all the Vale fans. Stopped off at a service station on the M5 only to find it was the one that all the Vale supporters coaches had stopped at!! Outnumbered by 1,000+ to 1 and still wearing the red and white it was a little nervy to say the least, particularly standing in line for the gents. But not a sign of trouble just smiles and good wishes. One bloke offered to put me right on the directions as he was convinced we should have been on the M4 till I explained where we were headed. Nice bunch of lads.

Three of us travelled back up to Gloucestershire by train after the game. Most people in our carriage were Vales fans. You would of thought they lost, it was like a morgue. The only people having a beer and a laugh were us three Bees fans. The highlight being when my brother asked one of the Coppers who were travelling back to Birmingham if he had heard of Harry Roberts!!
