    That generally seems to be the reason why teams (liverpool and Manure are examples like to play the second half towards the end where their more fanatical supporters are).

    Need to make that south stand rock then!

    Look at the statistics and we always do better when we kick off towards the North Stand in the second half. We have scored proportionally more goals that end to if I remember correctly - just like the Normanton End! If it ain't broke don't fix it - there is a psychology to it.
    I'm a big believer in tradition and luck (and I sit in the North East corner)
    We hardly ever shoot towards the SS in the second half, so not sure that the stats would show anything else.

    Change it round.. SS is a must.. Most in the NS are sucking sweets or have gone for their third wee by the time we need them.

    It's also the reason the away fans are at the other end...
