JohnnyH Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 I've just been invited to go to the match with some of the Directors at my job. A major client is bringing us. I can't turn it down so I will have to go. Two of the Directors (including my direct boss) are Utd fans so how do I spit my bile and be totally anti-Utd without screwing up my career. I can't just sit there and applaud as I'd never be able to live with myself. Help badly needed.
Knox_Harrington Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 If two of the directors are genuinely United fans they'll understand why you are a consciensious objector and you shouldn't have to go.
Stevie H Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 sing munich songs until you get thrown out / beaten up.
Leo No.8 Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 If they aren't total n*bheads then they'll probably appreciate a bit of gentle banter from a Liverpool supporter. They'll have someone to crow to when they go through as well, which they almost certainly will.
floyd Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 When you go into the executive areas, start mouthing off that you got the tickets of Bobby Charlton at only £50 above face value.

Grow up, it is not that hard to watch games with rival fans you know.A little bit of humor and normal decent behavior all there is to it really. Edited November 30, 2006 by tezza
Cobs Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 should be easy enough - just sing about Liverpool for 90 minutes and you'll fit right in.
JohnnyH Posted November 30, 2006 Author Posted November 30, 2006 My boss is fine and we have plenty of banter, but the other lads are 90 minute football fans so if I don't go I'll be considered immature. I just know that when they start their "We won it two times" crap that I'll get all bent out of shape and mouthy. Ah sure, what ever happens happens. Although I like Floyds idea
ManxRed Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 Keep asking when the prawn sandwiches are going to be served.
JohnnyH Posted November 30, 2006 Author Posted November 30, 2006 Go and sh*t in the urinals Now you're talking
Leo No.8 Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 Go and sh*t in the urinals Even better go and sh*t in the prawn sandwiches...
Herbie von Smalls Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 quit your job. it is ryanair after all, isn't it?
smithdown Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 Spend all night reading The Miracle of Istanbul and working out variations on where we might be going for the next round. Occasionally look up and ask if there has been any score and if they are out yet. Also, keep asking 'whats this song they're singing - Liverpool aren't even playing'.
JohnnyH Posted December 1, 2006 Author Posted December 1, 2006 quit your job. it is ryanair after all, isn't it? No, it annoys Andy too much. Also, keep asking 'whats this song they're singing - Liverpool aren't even playing'. I'm actually going to make a point of that. Everytime they sing about us I'm going to point it out and say how said it is. I have a feeling I'll be using the term 'forever in our shadow' a lot.
Murphman Posted December 1, 2006 Posted December 1, 2006 Keep asking when the prawn sandwiches are going to be served. Feck that, sardines on toast. They won't get it, thick manc c*nts.
Sir Tokyo Sexwale Posted December 2, 2006 Posted December 2, 2006 sing along when they sing to the tune of '5 times' - but use the real lyrics, obviously. No, not the Beach Boys ones. The REAL ones
