The goal celebrations were better being at that end, absolute carnage after the second and third goals.

That's right, we all just politely applauded in the North Stand.The goal celebrations were better being at that end, absolute carnage after the second and third goals.

Not having a go mate, its more to do with the safe standing areas, fans don't have to worry about falling over the seats.That's right, we all just politely applauded in the North Stand.

Don't know if it was the last time (think a domestic cup game this season?) But I do remember Harry the Twitcher at Portsmouth using that plan....in a 6-0 win for us.Can't remember the last time this happened. Good point.
It was brilliant of Slippy to allow the SS their own 93:20 game.

Last time I remember us doing it in the league (we may have done it since but I can't recall it) was the 0-0 against United in Pep's first season. The Thursday night game where it looked like Jesus had won it at the death, only for it to be ruled out for offside. The limbs were so good that I ended up on the floor celebrating like fuck and must've been one of the last people in the ground who realised it had been disallowed!

I don't go to as many games as i used to but that is the only time i remember it happening.
Probably instructions from slippyAnybody know if Fernandinho chose to swap ends or was it the Villa captain?

Always thought it strange that we choose to attack the South Stand in the first half of games. Given it's the vocal section, it's more likely that that encouragement may be needed more in the second half of games. At this stage, it's probably superstitious to choose the way we do. As for Villa making us play towards the "wrong" end in each half, I don't really blame them. They needed any perceived advantage (even psychological) they could get if they were to stand a chance of getting a result as, on pure footballing ability, they shouldn't have stood a chance. And let's be honest, it nearly worked!
