Shooting towards the south stand second half

[mrcakey]

As an ex-season ticket holder in block 212, I would've loved them to kick towards the South Stand more often.

I suspect the reason they don't has something to do the sun being more likely to be in the eyes of whoever's in goal in the North Stand end in the second half.

How much better was it shooting towards the south stand in the second half yesterday, hopefully we do it more often, not just the fact we’re shooting towards our most vocal fans but also the away team shooting away from there fans must make a difference

I prefer the usual.

On average we're only going to win the toss 50% of the time so even if we want to kick towards the South Stand in the second half we're not going to half the time if the opposition want to kick towards their fans.

I presume it was direct instruction from Gerrard in some pathetic attempt at mind games.

I legitimately read the title and thought there was some unreported gang warfare in the stadium.

I once read a long time ago, that it was a gentleman's agreement that the home team chooses which way they want to kick.

Yeah well the guy who was in charge of the away team yesterday is low on the list of people that could be described as a gentleman.

Didn't like it. I think Slippy opted for it to try and put us off and it nearly worked.

Probably when the opposition manager/captain was small time enough to make us switch ends.

The club did trial it for a few games, but they reverted back, for whatever reason.

i said to mate they'll turn us round if win toss
it failed

Players have previously said they would prefer to kick towards an end full of City fans so they don’t like it as much I don’t think. It was a Villa decision from the coin toss.

Family stand and full …. Does not compute
