[Albion] Away fans in the North Stand

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

The opportunity to nose around another clubs stadium post match would be a wonderful opportunity. Most fans are decent enough and would welcome away fans for a drink. Similar to those conversations that happen on the train

A dullard on here once wrote words to the effect that the only thing that really separates most of us from each other is that we're wearing different coloured polyester shirts. What say you @Dr. No ?

Having experienced football violence 1st hand for many of years i for one welcome I can bring my daughter and partner to the amex and act like adults, if after a 6-0 tonking want to hang around and have a beer good on them its 2023 not 1973

Two Wolves fans wearing team shirts passed me going onto the NS concourse and I just thought "fair play to you". They looked like regular blokes just having a look around and a pint, not being gobby and taking it on the chin that they'd lost 6 zip. Personally I'm happy supporting a club where this can happen without hysteria breaking out.

Amazing day and result yesterday.

However, it irked me a bit to see away fans coming into the stand after the game. This is an absolute no, if they want to socialise, go into the pubs in the city centre.

Call me old fashioned but I love the tribal nature of football, so, having a couple if Wolves fans suddenly come in yesterday for beers was too far imo.

I know you are still a young man so there is plenty of time for you to grow up.

This, it’s a game of football (look and what happened to that blackpool fan recently)

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Good point. But I still find it a little irritating, maybe I should be older and transport back to the 70’s.

I wouldn't. If you tip-toed through the North Stand, even with your boots on, you'd get your head kicked in.

You're old fashioned.

There’s old fashioned. And then there’s Stone Age.

You've just watched your team win 6-0 and you get irritated about a couple of opposition fans having a drink on the concourse?? Wow.

whilst an awful lot of Wolves fans left early, and of those remaiing most went prety damn quick after the final whistle, I did notice a few small groups left having a great time dancing in the south stand as our players were doing the lap round the pitch, and some even clapped them.

The fact that our club allows ansd encourages fans to mingle and have a beer after the game in the concourses has to be a great thing.

I remeber too well feeling the need to get away from the goldstone ASAP after some games simply because as a young teen I didnt feel overly safe, Im really glad that those days , for the most part are behind us


There were some Wolves fans in trhe train queue singing "we are shit, we are shit, we are shiiiiit!" making the best out of what must have been a bloody depressing day

Fair play to those who stayed and made the most of a shit day out for them

Especially since its been like that ever since the Amex first opened

 

[Springal]

I was surprised to see one in the WSU with his shirt on before the match !

Just seen your team’s second string cruise to a 6-0 victory in a 3pm KO on a lovely sunny day during its most successful season in history. It’s as if you desperately need to find something to get irritated about.

Old fashioned!

What an absolute Wally.

Im sure they wouldnt allow it to get overrun, but as long as they're not twats then its always been an acceptable thing to allow & welcome a few of the away fans into the north stand concourse after the game. We're all football fans at the end of the day, nothing wrong with enjoying a pint together and chatting about the game.

Get with the times.

Less racoon, more chipmunk.

Not sure it happens anywhere else or does it?

Not at all mate! Knew this would get a-lot of attention on here, just was interested to see if anyone agreed ir if I was in a minority. Whole point if a forum is sharing opinions.
