IIRC, earlier in the season there was a big fuss about 1 or 2 fans who were giving Fife a bad name, being abusive with kids around etc etc. I was just reading a post on BIH's Facebook with Saturday's results and you Fife fans have received alot of positive feedback on that thread from Steelers fans.
Just saw that nobody posted about this and figured I would, to show that everything said about Fife isn't bad. But y'know how it goes, everyone has something to say about negative things, but ignores the positive. So this is a little +rep post for you guys on Monday morning

From what I have seen on tweetville etc over the weekend, it looks like with the fans in their hundreds, a good time was had by all, and both Sheffield and Nottingham made reference to the massive followings with very positive comments directly from the club.
Wouldn't be surprised if it justifies a comment on the Sky show on Friday too.
Well done to all

N.I.C is the best place to visit IMO. Always found the Nottingham fans to extremely welcoming, easy to chat to and have a laugh with. But then again, i've probably not encountered any of their keyboard warriors who seem to type absolute c*** on the internet.

I'd agree actually, the fans are great, but we do have a very good historical bond with Notthingham, they were always my favourites in my "youth" for after match drinkies at the hotels :-) I remember last year too, took ages to get out cause everyone wanted to ask about Garrett. It was of course after THAT game when he saves about 7000 shots ;-) |

We were playing against Panthers on Saturday October 18th 2008 and we won 4-1, it was my first ever away game and there was only about 15-20 Phoenix fans there and me and my mate were literally shouting the entire game, so much so that we actually go chants of 'you're on your own' from other Phoenix fans lol. The Nottingham fans and usual Phoenix away fans had never seen us at an away game before (obviously being my first) and we were bombarded with questions from both sides about who we were and where we'd come from and got invited to the Castle by the Panthers' fans who sit at the back of block (3 I think?) and it was just an all around hilarious night. |
