In Summary:

What's the do's and don'ts for the away days

Do: 
Be friendly with locals 
Have a few drinks and have a sing song
See the sights
Be respectful of the culture
Sing "Uh ah Paul McGrath" instead of "uh ah up the Ra"
Sing and Support the team
Help fellow fans in need

Show up to shout abuse at the fans team 

Do batter anybody who throws full/ half or empty pint glasses in the air

Sing the national anthem

Do learn the words of Grace 

Do whatever you can to get drunk stranglers in a taxi and confirm accommodation destination to driver, when said stranglers have well and truly hit the wall and need a leaba.

Look out for each other 
Remember we all support one team

Respect our hosts

Welcome new and young supporters they are the future

Know your audience. 

Don't act the ***t. 

Do get to the stadium early to build the atmosphere and sing the anthem

Try and learn a few words of the local language.

Leave your Accommodation in a clean state when leaving.

Learn and start new chants 

Split meal bills equally
Look after one another

Support the Team ( that’s why we are there)

 



Don't:
Accost passing black lads singing the Kolo/ Yaya Toure song 
Boot footballs at targets that are clearly inappropriate
Don't be a seat nazi
Sing IRA songs
Openly piss on the street when you can use a jax or at least discreetly pop down a lane etc.
Tout tickets or sell at over the odds prices 
Fight or/and damage property 

Don't be a seat nazi

Qualify and label supporters according to some Superfan scale

Lose your passport on away trips.

Dont bang on the bonnet of a car thats trying to pass through a narrow street congested by fans.

Dont lie across said bonnet either for a photo, even if you think it's funny. It isn't.

Don’t arrive to the match late / leave early

Take selfies with 5 minutes to go in the an important game when we are hanging on 

Throw your empty cans,bottles on the street ,find a bin.

Wear the rugby /GAA/ Scottish PL jersey

No RA songs

Sing The Toure Chant. 

Judge a fan on how many away trips they have done everyone has to start somewhere all fans should be made feel welcome especially in a far fung place we have had 3 of them this campaign.

Be a MOD
Dont be a dick.

Throw full/ half or empty pint glasses in the air

Shocked Name and shame these drunk STRANGLERS you speak of, i am frightened now
