Everyone should go to our usual spot behind the goal.

Finally someone on Foot.ie who knows how to talk properly

There's no risk of the Riverside being closed I'd say lads, it's been open for nearly every game this season even ones where the away fans sit elsehwere.

Nice to see you taking the comments with a pinch of salt slash/ED!

Sounds like the game on Friday will be on TV alright.
Has to be behind the goal in that case?
Gonna try and be in the ground well early and arrange flags etc. Need plenty of people to lend a hand.
Say 7pm?

**daveh** · 27/10/2004, 10:49 AM

Forgot about the possibility of the match being called off,its a fairly real possibility like.It would ruin my week if it got called off,been looking forward to going to this game for a while.Why did they build there stadium on a flood basin?!! Idiots!!

i'm inclined to say behind the goal now too. unless its raining then we'll need a cover

**tiktok** · 27/10/2004, 2:32 PM

Apparently it's behind the goal where shels are putting us anyway, so decision made. Wrap up warm.

What is the betting that Shels will do nothing to avoid the flooding of the pitch? With City being the in-form team at the moment, it would suit Fenl@nger to have this game postponed.

**adamd164** · 27/10/2004, 6:02 PM

Could Ian or colm or one of the lads tell me what'll happen if the game's called off with the buses?? I mean, would there still be a bus if it's gonna be midweek like??

I voted for behind the goal.

In ur opinion it will result in a split in the crowd, prob because in the games you mentioned above you were one of the main instigators in splitting from the rest of the City crowd!!!!!

Riverside for noise and Riverside for shelter, weather ain't gonna be that warm or dry tomorrow night!!

**yan** · 28/10/2004, 8:43 PM

lads,we will we go so!

its important we stay together,for louder noise,id say the gantry---a la shed!!

also lads,where is best to park? +direstions if poss plz lads!!

I just prefer watching games from behind the goal and think you always get a better atmosphere and more visible presence when you're behind the goal.

How many times do I have to say that roof in the riverside should be irrelevant! There's going to be so many of us there that we'll make a sh!t load of niose no matter where we stand.
The only reason we would have for going to the Riverside will be if it's p!ssing rain.

I prefer watching games from behind the goal as well, but I think the view is better from the riverside. also, if thats where a lot of people are going, we should all stick together.

**Eric** · 28/10/2004, 9:14 PM

With no roof and a strong wind more than likely blowing towards that end then any noise made there is just gona go straight back over our heads and into the back gardens on Richmond Rd!!!!!

I prefer watching matches from behind the goal too but my main aim tomorrow is to create an atmosphere and encourage City on and I reckon the Riverside is the place to do that

well said my son....I prefer to watch games from behind the goal too, but its in the best intereset of everyone that we stick together and make as much noise as possible...halfway line in the riverside stand is that place....

**patsh** · 29/10/2004, 8:30 AM

Can $hels not decide to put us where they want?

They can designate a section of the ground as being for away fans, and will we have any choice but to go there?
