Millwall in 2013/14 - we drew 1-1.
And Millwall the year before when we drew 2-2 I think.

Don't like it tba, feels like it has an affect on the game

Huddersfield, 2012-2013, Ulloa hat trick in a 4-0 win, but it does seem to affect the team. One of the reasons I'd like to see the away fans in the corner and Albion fans behind the goal.

It definitely doesn't feel right.

Felt like it completely threw us off. Stockdale was already walking to the north goal and did not realise at first

I know it's never going to happen but wouldn't it be nice if the club/police let 1000 northstanders walk up to the southstand at half time?
Seen this happen at Cheaterfield the year we won the title. They scored in the last minute with their end behind the goal packed out with fans who were standing next to us in the first half.

It feels really strange the 'other' way
Surprised more teams don't do this both at the Amex and elsewhere. Most home sides have a preference for which end they attack in a second half, so if the toss is won, make them play the other way.

Brighton 1-0 burnley 2013 i think Spanish Davo scored a volley towards the North Stand first half?
Also the inferior game v doncaster 2014 ulloa scored a bullet header towards south?

I sit at the north end of WSU, an me and my son decided to change ends at half time today. We went and sat in B Block for the second half.
The second half was shit, but so was B Block. Weird, quiet (too damn quiet) and full of people I didn't recognise.
I am not doing this again, so I would be grateful if the powers that be prevented a recurrence.
Thank you.

For that Doncaster game I watched the 1st half from my usual seat in north, then walked through the west and watched the 2nd half from the south
This is completely right. We need the south stand packed with Albion fans. Stick the oppos in East lower, south end, with the sun in their eyes and little chance of creating any atmos. Unfortunately this means putting a nasty partition in the catering area. But it is not rocket science.

Another thing - where were the team sheets on the giant electronic display boards ?
It would be nice to see the North stand packed for a change. If we can't pack that what makes you think we could pack the South stand?
It looks pretty filled to me
Regardless, I just find the sight of one end devoid of us a bit silly. This is connected with the thread about kicking South first half, and the near obsessional desire for this at the coin toss. We are handicapping oourselves by not populating the ends strategically.
