Self humiliation...

What's your most embarassing moment going to a football game? I'll start the ball rolling. We were playing away game at Millwall and I'd quite a few beforehand in the George near Waterloo. Two of us were walking to the ground from the train station and we were getting a fair bit of banter from the Millwall fans around us. Rather than watching where I was going, I was looking at my mate as we were chatting away. The next thing I knew I got smashed in the face with what felt like an iron bar. I was stumbling around like a baby giraffe. After the initial shock, my first thought was that we were being attacked, but then realised it wasn't the Millwall fans that had jumped me but a very hard....lamp post! Needless to say the incident had been witnessed by about 100 Millwall fans who of course found it hysterical. They did though give me a round of applause for staying on my feet... :)
 
Mine was at the end of the last game of the season v Orient to stay up. I think we won 4-1. The usual end of season pitch invasion ensued and I, worse for wear, jumped on Dave Bambers back telling him how well he played only to look down and see this guy was wearing jeans, with Bamber on the back of his shirt 😎
 
Everytime I got up to go to the toilets or wherever in the 80’s and our own supporters started the ‘ get your tits out rendition.’
As accepted as it was as banter back in the day , it was actually pretty awful for a shy teenager at the time. And I’m sure for any female who encountered it.
No need to move to politics board 😏 semi rant over!
It’s nice those days have ended though 👍

Well that's a lie, names were not on shirts when he played for us.

Hardly a lie. If after x amount of years the memory wants to put a name on his back so be it, I was leathered 😎
Edit to add - the number 9 seems to have morphed into letters.
Edit to add - the humiliation continues 😎

Ahh the good old days Lala, I’m saddened that political correctness has put an end to all that!
I went to Ipswich away the last time we played them before all this covoid kicked in & a large young lad in their end was giving the finger etc to us-Blackpool fans started singing to the same dulcet tones as the get your tits out tune “ diabetes’s diabetes diabetes it’s coming for you “
Bit wrong but very funny

I totally empathise with your pain. I'm now a 50 year old obese man and get the same chant 😭
 
Just remembered 2 more, when I was young I got punched in the side of the face by a Portsmouth fan & he stole my scarf, then when the game started they set fire to it on full view
Get this one myself and my 3 kids missed the coach at the Blackburn away game in the premiership, no money on me & was pretty worried about how we would get home, spoke to GTF as my youngest was getting his autograph & he said he’d sort it, Karl & Matt Williams came out of the ground and Karl gave us the £45 taxi fare- asked us to get a receipt from the driver to put through the books probably, then arranged for the coach driver to pick us up from the bfc reception, also layed drinks on for us whilst we were waiting - after what he stole from us as a club in hindsight it was a bit humiliating letting him help us out but still a nice thing to do

Two questions.

1, Why is that bloke on the right wearing a nappy around his chest?
2, Where is his belly button, do all people from Preston not have one?

No idea the answer to the those....

I will ponder my own question, WTF is going on?

But I will settle it by concluding..... it just seems like what I imagine is a perfectly normal day at Deepdale, in fact I believe they were actually posing for the club season ticket promotional photo there 🤣😂

You seem quite keen to respond to this, are the memories flooding back? Wasn't that pne shirt around the time Blackpool went to the premier league?

Maybe this was a coping mechanism you on the right tried for a while?

Then again maybe just a misunderstanding, when the club said fans need to 'show their strong support'.......
 
There's been a few, had my scarf and hat taken by Preston fans on the train, threw them out of the window (decent craic if I wasn't 11).

Had my blue striped rebeccas third kid walking down one of the cobbled horse paths in Burnley towards Turf Moor and an old, trampy looking gentlemen pointed at my shirt and said "is that a Blackpool shirt? my dad said yeah and he suddenly went feral and chased us around the backstreets with a broken wine bottle.

Don't worry Ska, don't look back in anger 😀
I suspect most of the embarrassing confessions on this thread were alcohol induced. Mine certainly was 😀
