Crowd last night had a "football supporter element"
DIR By: DazzaS

I am probably overthinking and now embracing my approaching
middle age, but on the way out last night, some of the crowd
starting singing "stick your f*****g bagpipes up your a**e" and
"stick your f*****g haggis up your a**e".
I know rugby is about banter and fun but this seemed to veer on
the more ugly side for me.
Certainly the people sitting around me were not that interested
in rugby. They were quiet, taking selfies, not signing along and
seem to be treating Quins as an extension of "The London
Season". Thankfully there were more around me that were into it.
But last night seemed to sum up 2 elements coming to the match I
wish hadn't.

Friday nights are always slightly different though disappointing
to hear the sweary invitations to put bagpipes somewhere.
England v Scotland in any form seems to bring out the worst in
some fans. Murrayfield is now bar far my least favourite away 6
nations venue.

Well, I suspect there were some Scottish fans singing about
shoving chariots up the same place
Fans round us were good. More than can be said for the bath fans
we suffered last week

Evening games are always a 'bit' different....it was lively last
night, not sure it ever crossed the line

The Glasgow fan looking for a fight in GA at half time was
pretty annoying.

We were in the South stand and thought the atmosphere was great
-lots of Warrior's fans making noise as were Quins - all seemed
friendly and noisy 👍

Yeah, that's an ever present and has been for decades.
None of it is particularly funny but you can't really judge it
without being there. Sometimes it's hostile or gloating.
Sometimes it's literally just two sets of fans having fun with
each other.

Why get so chopsy about the experience of a fellow fan? What a
bizarre way to behave.
