Bramall Lane : Thu Aug 19, 2010 11:04 pm  

What a top, top ground to visit. Biggest Eagles home support I've ever seen so it's obviously working out for you guys. Was dreading it beforehand thinking we'd be lumbered with the 'football steward overlords' type but to be able to take your beer to the seats and stand up at the back of the stand for the whole game was a huge bonus.

Really enjoyed visiting and looking forward to going there next year - now I know there is tons of flag space then prepare to be invaded

Glad you enjoyed it, nice to know that Bramall Lane is more preferable for away fans as well as home ones.

Very good turnout from the eagles fans last night despite the weather and it being on sky. Also a good attendance from Leigh, shame we wont return the favour in two weeks.

Why ever not?
Surely a playoff is a great reason to support your team.

A - Because Leigh is a bitch to get to
B - The Play-offs are totally loving pointless

You soccer people don't understand the meaning of the word "excitement".

Or a lot of other words either.
