I swear like a trooper and nothing has ever been said to me.
Correct me if I'm wrong but I think I know who you are as the descripton you give fits you down to a tee (not that I'm calling you big, bald & ugly!). Presumably you sit in the Trinity lower several rows behind the dugouts who frequently gives the ref stick even if his decisions are correct with regular lines of 'whats the matter with ya' and 'you couldn't wait could ya' when he books a Villa player.This followed with 'we're very disappointed in you' at James Milner recently and Martin O'Neill last season when he came back with Sunderland which amused many of us.But as you say, you don't actually ever swear, give the team or manager any abuse (thats pretty remarkable considering the past couple of seasons!) and do give the side solid support and encouragement.If it is you, it would be a crying shame if you decide to move or get thrown out; I sincerely hope not as you're usually the highlight of the match!!

Yeah that's me, I guess I can be a bit of an irritant at times but I just try to support the boys.Having read through the replies, I'll take some of your advice. Will see if I can speak to John Handley to see what is going on, then I'll try and forget about it I think.When I left yesterday, I asked the steward if I had behaved enough and she gave me a big kiss!! (not quite so ugly, or had she lost her glasses!)Thanks for your comments and support Charlie8182 & TopCat, pop over and say hello next time, I don't bite!! UTV.
Really, football should be one of the places where you're allowed to be annoying.as it was always supposed to be a safe place to let out our frustrations.There are people by me that piss me off but I'll tell them face to face as part if the whole thing of football being a place whwpre you say what you think. They might have a go back, & it all be a bit worrying, but that was how I always thought it was. If footballis a place which excludes people who get a bit carried away, then I'm not really sure what the point of it is.

I'd ask why and what the complaint was about via the club.
