"One" meaning "I"
Example: I greeted.

Also try: If someone greeted.

etc.

So, what would happen ?

How are you planning on greeting them? Like Roger the greeter at Asda, or with the usual foul and abusive language you'd expect at a derby?

You wouldn't get a ticket as the Blades will sell all those available on the Leppings Lane, however you will be able to pick and choose where you want to sit in the remaining stands;);)

When attending other matches at ground, and greeting away fans. have had positive responses and confused responses, but never angry or negative or aggressive ones.

So was just curious about the derby.

Do you work as a Walmart greeter in NJ ?

Why would you greet away fans unless you are being angry and negative ???

Sorry but you have me confused so i can see why people would give you confused responses at the match :huh::huh::huh:

Before the match, you'd get friendly banter, alot of shirters now are pretty good mates with each other when it comes to derbies. After the game is a different matter, assuming a team loses, the winning fans will want to rub it in the other faces, this will be met with a kind ''fu*k off :)'' or a kind ''you're out of the family'' or a gentle smashing of windows, cars, pubs, and just in general the whole of Sheffield :)

However look at who you're greeting, the majority of shirters will have banter as said above, youg chavvies thinking they're on the set of Green Street will tell you to ''fack off you Wednesday mug!'' and the lads that usually stand at the back will have some banter, but wont be as light hearted as the shirters...or scarfers.

walmart greeter no.

But am a naturally friendly, outgoing, easy to talk to person.

why not give an away fan a friendly greeting?

When meeting footie fans in general (in the states) we are able to discuss the finer points of the beautiful game without any animosity.

When did you last attend a Sheffield derby ? have you ever attended a Shefield derby ?

I only ask as i have never seen a hand shake on Leppings lane ! a few fists yes!

jeeeeeeeeeez Blades can you imagine a Yank approaching you on Lepping Lane, "have a nice day now" !!

Its like a Blade offering a spare ticket to an Owl outside bramall lane " here mr Owl a free ticket, come and sit with me on the kop!!"

Footy fans in the states dont have derbys like in Sheffield.

May i sugest despite your best intentions you do not try it !;)

By Footy fans i meant actual English football supporting Englanders from England, on holiday, etc, in the states.

So you like hospital food:loopy: It would never happen, lol

We have crowd segregation at even the safest of games, the derby is not safe, friendly , fans are not slightly interested in offering the hand of friendship before or even after the match.

Sad but true.

Never mind what football match you go to there is always that thought in the back of your mind that your out of your own patch.
The reason you feel like that is because of the rivalry between every club going never mind if it's, United, Blackpool or Wrexham.
Thats one of the biggest buzz's about being away from home at a game id say m8.

Extend that warm greeting for your fellow Owls, Overseas supporters would always be made welcome, and am sure the 20,000 Owls would be much more socialable than 7000 Blades.

LOL, and if the match is postponed as at Posh, one can always find trouble amongst your own !!

I agree Corker , when our mini bus turned up outside the Swansea home end 2 mins before kick off... there was a certain buzz!! :)

not a chance....if the owls are still bottom three and need to win to stay up..i will guarantee that the crowd will be a good one and very hostile towards the blades....
it is just how it is in sheffield now.....and we wouldn't want it any other way...

You would get carried away by guys in white coats because you must be mad to even suggest it.
