you want me to come with you geejaybee

Sorry if I sound a bit dippy Nuffield,not quite sure what you mean.Had the pleasure of meeting you a few seasons ago at a pre-season friendly (either Aldershot or Wycombe ) and I remember your occupation big boy.It was at that match I confronted Pallidini about buying Beckford and he wanted me to stump up the money which he later denied.

With the R's performing the way they are,we the fans are entitled to feel happy and united.Not so the bloke in front of me.You may remember me telling you some weeks ago about him telling me to " shut the f@@k up" when I was having a pop at Zamora.The problem now seems to be legroom.Like most,particularly V Block in Ellerslie Rd,I have to have my legs at 10 to 2 (I defy anyone to assume the 12 o'clock position) and as a consequence if the guy in front of you leans back he will feel your knees in his back.Most of us adopt an upright or slightly forward stance to improve your view.He's not done this before but for some reason yesterday,he kept leaning or even lurching backwards for the first 15 mins or so of the match and my knees inevitably touched his back,to the point where he turned around and shoved my right knee with both of his hands accompanied by some choice expletives.I tried to explain to him that short of me being a voluntary double amputee,there wasn't much I could do about it and in any event it was him leaning back that was the root of the problem but there was no reasoning with him.It was at this point that the young guy sitting next to him,his mate or son,joined in by saying he was 6'5" and didn't have a problem and I said that was because the guy in front of him was,like most of us,leaning forward slightly.In some ways I wish they were both members of WATRB and could read this.The second half went off quite uneventfully ( because he leaned forward slightly and was a lot less animated).Can't wait for the next episode.

cool story bro

Wycombe it was mate, just thought I might be able to persuade him to behave for you

A pm from you to me with your mobile number may be handy if he persists,depending how often you go to the R's.I could also try tracing him via his seat number although doubt the club would give me this info.Thanks anyway for your kind offer.

This really gets on my nerves. There is absolutely no need to be unfriendly to a fellow Ranger.

Seems unfair on you but just ask the club to move your seat within the block/same priced seat because you are stuck behind an Rsole.

Thanks Mush. I agree,you'd think that like minded supporters of the same team with the common aim of promotion would learn to get along with each other.I'm reluctant to move as I moved this season to Row S from Row N.Its right in the centre bang in line with the centre line.In fact I was surprised that these two seats(one for a mate who moved with me) were available,they're that good.So perhaps the previous occupants had the same problem with this guy last season and decided to move.We'll see how it goes,but for as long as he persists in pushing his back into my knees there's going to be a problem.The strange thing is,that its the first time in 6 home games he's done it.The previous problem I had with him was a ruck over Bobby Zimmer

I'm 6'5" so you can imagine what it is like for me. I had somebody turn around and give me the evil eye after he tried to sit back and I just explained to him as nicely as I could that I was sitting as far back in my seat as possible and there was nothing else I could do. He turned back without saying anything but I didn't get the evil eye again!

Try being super nice to him geejaybee - it will blow his cro magnon brain and he will probably self destruct!

Thanks mate,that sounds exactly the same as my situation except that my adversary decided to spin round and physically pushed my knee nearer to 10 to 3 without warning accompanied by some colourful language,this after pushing his back into my knees firmly several times as if to prove a point.I've tried being nice,the first time on the Zamora incident putting my arms around him from behind and jokingly asking if I've got to put up with him for another 20 matches.The second time,after the Knees incident and immediately following Austin's first goal,I grabbed him and asked "we alright now?"

If he'd done that to me I'd have definitely told him not to do it again or we'd have a problem. Then I'd have probably said that I'm sitting as far back as humanly possible and what would he like me to do? I'd probably also offer to change seats with him.

And I'd draw a distinction between being "nice" vs. "chummy". I would not be "chummy" with the w@nker.

I told him I was sitting as far back as I could,and apart from me becoming a double amputee,there's nothing else I could do about the situation.
