The fact is, it is a shit location, and opposition fans are entitled to point that out. It doesnt neccessarily mean they don't understand the reasons behind it though.
Agree with this. A lot of 'name' players there, taking a last ride on the gravy train. Much prefer our policy of signing hungry players with a future ahead of them.
Strange thread. I was all set to stick up for him, but reading the posts it's a Claridge love in, and rightly so. He does a good job in my opinion. He's a lively and enthusiastic co-commentator, not as wooden as he appears on TV. Second only to the legendary Jimmy Armfield.
Does make me chuckle how the attitude of one or two posts from oppositions fans is enough to change opinions of entire football clubs.
Swansea for me. Based on no more than an excellent kit and memories of them topping the division for a short time in the 80s.
Thanks, Jim and all.
These pics are on a Tokina 11-16 Wide Angle, perfect for stadium shots.
You are right, you are never going to get the same sharpness out of a zoom lens, but then zooms are perfect for an everyday walkabout lens. I normally have an 18-200 on mine.
I left early, at 21:30, and walked straight on to the 21:36 and away back to Brighton. Four minutes at the station, then departed for London on the 21:49. Not ideal to miss the end of the game, but hapy to sacrifice that for an easy getaway.
Have to say, reading through this thread, the Donny fan is sounding more rational than you. No need for all the cliched name calling, many of the points made are valid.
NMH, what's the deal with DSLR camera's? Am I right in thinking I can bring it in under the proviso I don't use it during play? I'm keen to get some shots and don't want to use my rather feeble compact.
