View Full Version : Best winding up of a fan of another team you’ve managed?

Just wondering - nothing nasty please - but just silly wind ups and good humoured banter you’ve managed or had played on you.

I lived just around the corner from a Premiership ground for a while. The away fans used to stream past us and one day Hearts were at Aberdeen. I’d had a few drinks as I was headed out that afternoon and was playing The Proclaimers nice and loudly with the window open. Got a couple of shouted comments and an occasional 5-1 but the best was I heard an almighty “get ****ed you Hibby c***” before a yam outside and below must have thrown the first thing to hand though my open window - a full, unopened pack of wine gums 😂

To know that a Jamboid was irked AND lost out on some chewy Maynards goodness still amuses me.

Was on holiday in Benidorm a few years back, Lennon was our manager then, walking past their bigoted pub, wearing my hibs strip, they were getting quite irate. After a few choice "Fienian"
shouts I turned, faced them & cupped both my ears as per Lennon when we beat them at castle greyskull a few weeks earlier. They almost self combusted. They were going tonto. I just grinned at them & continued walking.

Telling Rangers fans that they aren't the same club anymore, no matter what they say, just gets them frothing at the mouth. Simple one but really enjoyable. "Aye but Uefa" etc, etc, etc.

On the Friday before Cup Final weekend, 2016, I took my Hibs mug home for safe keeping. Not that I ever had a problem working in one of West Lothian's most blue-nose areas...
It so happened that I forgot to pick it up on my way out on the following Monday morning. I borrowed one of my colleagues' spares. It was decorated with the slogan "Pretty Little Princess".
So, as usual, I walked into the room filled with 25 16-17 year-old, carrying my coffee mug. I stopped at the front on the way to my desk.
"Can you believe that?", I said.
"Today, of all days, I forgot my cup!"

One guy laughed.
