There was a phone-in on the radio about some funny football experience and stories, there must be so many amongst our group on here, knowing some of you

I heard this one:

During the beginning of one season in Geordie Land, two seats remained empty at St James' Park, in an enclosure exclusively for season ticket holders. People were baffled how in an area where there was a long waiting list for season tickets, these seat remained empty every home game.

At a home game in January a bloke and his lad were found occupying the seats. One of the regulars lent forward and asked:

"Excuse us, but howdya get tickets for these ere seats, there for season ticket olders only"

The bloke replied: " Well ya see, me wife bought them for us as a christmas present" :lookaround

I was at the game for this one...

It was half time against Barcelona and me n the lads were engaging the the usual chat about the match etc.

During half time, the announcer is going through the scores and then moves onto the 'mentions'. you know the score, such n such's Birthday, someone has travelled from Hong Kong to be here etc.

The announcer then told us this mesage....

"And this is a message that has just come in for Mike Caldwell, who is in the Kop at the moment watching the Reds.

This mesage is from your father and it reads - Mike, your wife has just had a baby! Please give me a call."

:laugh:

i heard that a few times over the years from the announcer, ussually your wife has been taken to mill road (the old maternity hospital).

one day the announcer during the game red out a car registration number and said can you return to your car as you have left the keys in and the engine running and grobelaar started to run off the pitch

Ok I heard this one on the radio.. topic - have you cried at a football match?

A guy is out to impress his new girlfriend, while playing in his Sunday league team. Whilst on his quest to impress her, he breaks his leg while rushing to knock a corner in to the net; instead he misses the ball, slides on his bottom towards the goal line and finds the fat goalkeeper landing on his leg and failing to get up when he does - ouch!

This story is sought of funny but also pretty horrible.

A friend of mine was playing in a local park competion when two opposing player both went for the same ball with legs raised. Any way after the challenge one of the opponents turned around to the other and said "where did the ball go". To the other player's shock and horror he turned around to him and said "I don't know mate but one of your balls is on the ground"

True story . one of the players studded the other in the nuts and his testicle actually fell out. Now there s oucccccccccccchhhhhhhh

There's been some blinding headlines and stories recently:

Fulham coach Dave Beasant was told he was sacked at 11pm on Tuesday only to receive a phone call from new caretaker boss Lawrie Sanchez half an hour later telling he was reinstated. (Daily Mirror)

ronaldo signed a new contract at manure today.

apparently when he went to sign his new contract, ronaldo asked ferguson "where do i sign?" to which fergie replied "anywhere in the box".

ronaldo immediately fell over. funny that.

Well this didnt happen to me but my dad and my brothers. They were at the Fa cup game between Luton and ourselves and were sitting in the luton end despite being liverpool fans. When Gerrard scored they couldnt hold in there excitement and jumped up and cheered only to be joined by most of the bottom tier of where they were sitting

Lol that's like when I went to see Liverpool on the opening day of the season some years ago now. We were playing Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park. I got my ticket and sat in the Palace end. I was wearing me liverpool stuff so no hiding for me ay.

Any how, we demolsied Palace 5-1 I think, McManaman scored etc. Everytime we scored me and these other LFC fans (we were right at the front) kept leaping up and dancing in the fron isle

In the end the Palace fans were just laffing at us - did I care I might get a punch on me nose - hell no !

Benitez on Crouch following his hatrick against arsenal:

Yes he didn't play for 20 days due to to his broken nose - perhaps we should break his nose again

Not really a story as such more of a quote that ive just read.

Did Liverpool get a bit carried away with their Mickey Mouse treble in 2001 and can you remember the last time Liverpool won the title? (from a United fan)

"We won the big one last year for you, didn't we? Is it 5-2 now? I won't be here by the time United have won five! And we've won the league 18 times. So that's 5-2, 18-15. Next."

Gerrard answers readers' questions in 4-4-2 magazine in October 2005
