    Fortunately not... We did have the pleasure of sitting in front of them for a few years though...

    I've not been to many matches recently due to my disabilities, but does "Jobless Harry Potter" still sit at the front of the Ponty?

    There used to be a lad who always screamed 'Get behind yer tee-ham' (during our time under Hill). For weeks he'd stand up suggesting everyone was fickle as they weren't singing, when he left before half time as a Delle Ali inspired MK Dons smashed us at Oakwell a few years back, about 40 people yelled out 'Yer all fickle' as he chuntered his way down the steps to the exit.

    I'm assuming from this you sit near-ish the front of the Ponty? If so, have you ever noticed the Liberace Section? Right hand side of the Ponty as you face the pitch, about 2/3 of the way down. Two rows of about ten seats entirely populated by men with dyed hair and moustaches, mostly dressed in studded leather jackets and double denim. It's like they've all just come from a Freddie Mercury fan club meeting, choosing his look from around 1982.

    I'm left hand side but I'm definitely going to nip to the right side for a look at these. Which gangway?

    The furthest one to the right. Last time I sat over there was a few seasons back, but I imagine they're still there, and severely doubt they've suddenly started wearing regular jeans and sweaters!

    Jobless Harry Potter was my favourite. Used to regularly make an appearance on this board.

    Has he progressed through the bumfluff stage of puberty yet, or he still looks like an oversized 14 year old?

    There was a new one near us on Saturday that I'll call 'Clinically Psychopathic Serial Killer in Waiting Guy'.

    Every time any Sunderland player had the ball, he screamed "Put him int stand!" or "Brek his legs!". When Williams carelessly conceded a free kick 70 yards from our goal by chopping their player when we had them penned in, he went "Good lad, that's arrr tha does it!"

    It remains to be seen whether he'll be there against Villa.

    Till about 4 years ago there was a bloke about 20 yards towards the Ponty from the half way line in the East Upper who would ramble loudly every match for about 20 seconds and finish off with SPAWNEY-FACED WASSOCK. I could never work out who he was shouting at, who he was or what he shouted before the coup de grace but he did it at every match. Then it stopped round about the relegation season and I haven't heard him since.

    Bad Ball guy in West Stand Upper. Nearly every pass played by us was greeted with "bad ball". He lasted one season in League One, and hasnt been seen since.

    In the ponty near us there's a Gerrim off Hecky, aimed at any player that dares to do a miss placed pass even if it's only 30 seconds in to the game same guy will usually shout get Glavin on to much amusement to himself, so much so that he always repeats it a bit quieter to himself.

    I think this character may be the same guy who we called Mclovin, as mentioned on the previous page. Glasses, black buzz cut hair etc.

    I remember him. Red faced kid with fair hair if that's the lad you're on about.
    Always wore goalies gloves which he carried around in a JB Sports draw string bag.!

    What about the guy with the pipe.? He used to sit about ten rows back in the middle of the goal
    at the Ponty end. He never said a word until a player hit the ball over the bar.
    At that point ,he'd lower his pipe and shout " Eads" and then carry on puffing on his pipe.
    He did it every time, to the point that after a while around twenty others started joining in with him.!

    In the days when you could stand, there used to be a lad called Simon behind the nets on the Ponty.
    He used to get really animated when Barnsley attacked. On one occasion he got so excited, he fainted
    when we scored and was carted off by St Johns on a stretcher. Never saw him from that day to this.
