Hatters off to the die hards travelling on a cold January evening and it amazes me how anybody could live in the houses adjoining the stand and what stories tnwy have to tell.

That’s Highbury Square.  One of my favourite grounds that!  Up the Arse!!!

Same here loved Highbury nestled amongst the houses

Judging by the sign on the red wooden doors, I would guess it was The West Stand 

Cheers I never zoomed in close so missed the sign, that's the stand thats nearest to the Emirates and the road was used for away fans to get back to the coaches near the railway lines or go the other way to the tube station.

And Arsenal....not too dissimilar 

I used to love going to Highbury but can't remember the houses terraced against the stand like in the photo. Anyone know which stand that was?

If they have broken toilets, they should probably try B&Q before Halfords. 

There were 300-400 hundred escorted back to the railway station not thousands as stated and the normal law abiding Briatolians were allowed to take the shorter route without any company! What Is it with the colour blue at the moment always involved with bullshit and in denial.

It seems that it's the done thing to wind up the SS if they score at that end.  It's almost as if they know how City fans will react (bottles etc.) ?   It's all well and good, but if you end up losing you look a prize  pr1ck !

I had to laugh at a couple of the Villa players who had plastic bottles chucked at them going down like they had been shot after doing similar at Everton.

Seriously though it’s scandalous that those grasping clubs get to ply their trade in our set-up. At least clubs like Colwyn Bay and Rhyl has the integrity to do the decent thing.
 

Still gets my hackles up that they had a ticket to Europe after Heysel and lo and behold their yobs run amok in Liege.

It’s a bizarre state of affairs and likely one that isn’t sustainable as the two nations inevitably drift further apart constitutionally.

Good post and couldn't agree more

Oh no, the best for all concerned would be if they toddled off and played in their own country’s league considering they are so bleeding proud to be Welsh.

They’re not welcome.

I'm sure with Newport, Swansea & Wrexham teams like Merthyr Tydfil could give them the numbers they need to form a Welsh premier league just like the Scots and then concentrate on shagging sheep rather than looking for punch ups

What was Flint like yestearday and surprised there's no mention of James Collins doing a Charlie Austin in front of your ans when he scored.

First time for everything, I s’pose. They’ve certainly disgraced themselves at your place in the past.

Quite boring support really Tranmere brought 600 and made more noise than them yesterday. Also I didn't realise what a horrible dirty team they are and play just like Barton used to and we're lucky not to have a couple sent off.

Whoever decided that our game with the Olympic swimmers and Swindon’s clash with the tobacco-chewing hillbillies should both be early kickoffs needs their head read.

To be fair the hillbillies were well behaved in Wiltshire yesterday

It goes to show early kick offs dosen't curb violence outside the ground the only thing that does is banning away fans with history of causing trouble in high profile matches which spoils it for the genuine supporters who like to follow their club.

Retired I think.

Shame as she seemed quite credible with her responses on here.

I remember the days when Tommy Oalford was the A&S designated football police officer, good bloke was Tommy and well respected, he would often be at train stations with the local plod at away games and have a quiet word with the "high risk" fans asking them to behave etc, not many took much notice mind. 

What happened to the police woman on here as she always updated the forum with facts rather than fiction

Except they don’t any more.

Factually correct as ever.

You're correct they hardly ever play Friday evenings anymore but that could be down to Everton & Liverpool don't play many home games on Saturdays

@Shaun Taylor

Is excitement building for your cup final?

No excitement for us as not really a rival and nothing on the scale as playing you guys or Oxford but I guess it's exciting for them to play in front of a big league 2 crowd

Ghana out. That`s a huge shock (and JoJo comes back to Swindon @Shaun Taylor a lot earlier than expected). Well don Comoros!

I didn't see any of the game and have only just found out the score so was surprised to see that they have been knocked out so it could be a bonus having him back in time for Saturday where he will no doubt get some abuse from the Stratton bank mob.

Bunch of plastics.

Stratton Bank might be open to the elements but as away ends go, there are worse....theirs for a start.

 

It's their big day out apart from Bradford away where else are they going to play in front of 12000+ in league 2

First game at the Mem for about a month and they still got less than we did last week for the Fulham FA Cup tie.

...and they were taking the piss out of our support for a match where we were being charged £23 to watch weakened sides?

In answer to your question, it’s clear that they need a new stadium. The Mem is far too big for them.

Their moaning amongst themselves about how poor our away end is have they not looked a thing their own facilities they offer away fans albeit limited numbers
