Title: Red Macca, what did you think of the Town end?
Post by: Spencer_White on Wednesday, August 9, 2006, 16:36:59
It was decent last night, probably the best Iv seen it since beating Hull 4-2, 18 months ago. Seen it a lot better mind, Jan 02- May 04 time. But what did you think of it? Good to be back? Id say a lot of lads were just starting to go in the Town End when you got banned, years ago. It used to be virtually empty most weeks with 50 big lads standing to the right of the central exit, with a huge 'No Surrender' flag to their right.

So glad the tradition of the right hand side standing has managed to survive. I thought last season might have killed it off, but fair play a lot of people really stuck to their guns. Makes it really feel like a proper football ground. Proper football.

If we become successful Im sure it will soon be the best, most vocal, passionate stand in the bottom 2 leagues, as it was before.

Nice one, I was a bit further back the same staircase as you. In the same goal bundle after Brownlies winner. Its usually the best one to stand on.

I wondered where she was, I was actually scared by so many new stewards, I thought they were going to tell me off for smoking, so I lit 4 fags ready to stab them.

People gave in too easy last year, that's why I can't go in the town end anymore.  I'd like to see people being more vocal in the nationwide that end as well, that's where I'll be.

I am hoping throughout this season the TE will be packed meaning vocal fans have to go in the NW and create a better atmosphere up there too

I got asked  by a steward using faltering English and hand gestures....to stop blocking the gangway,.. I was stood in front of my seat ....I replied something along the lines of "yep OK mate and stayed where I was....he seemed happy enough.

    It will probably be only a matter of a few games, before we get issued with more warning letters, and like a couple of seasons back some townender of 30 years standing, gets banned.
