@owlstalk Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Did any Kop regulars change their seats for the night last night and go on the South Stand instead? (or vice versa) Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wonder Spaniel Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I switched to seats on the centre line in the South. Great view, but I’d forgotten how little leg room there is compared to the kop. Also, it took almost all of HT to get a waz too. I did glance longingly at the large blue heavy blankets that were available in one of the padded seats sections. I thought that they were a myth, but seemingly not.

MaliceInBlunderland Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Got ST on south but always go on kop for cup matches/friendlies just for a change. Row 25 on kop last night, would have been a good view if not for snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lairyowl Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 (edited) Yes, took my lad on kop from Change of grandstand, he loved it, Edited January 17, 2018 by lairyowl Mistake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plonk Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Was forced to move from exclusive seat on the north to sit with the rabble on the kop. Very impressed with the changes since I was last on there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxowl Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 The thing I noticed moving from south to kop was that some distinguished gentlemen at halftime spouting words like fam and bruv and also the aroma of cannabis wafting around made a difference.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Tom Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 (edited) My ticket was on South for a change, but couldn't get over the Pennines due to weather. Sat on South for a few games in recent times, but it's always been for quite rowdy ones (Huddersfield playoff second leg, home leg of derby). Don't really like it as much for the less 'pashun'-driven encounters, prefer the Kop where I can get properly annoyed about the band and having to wee in a 19h-century literal brick sh*thouse.

If you are in the South stand and are bigger than 5ft 10" you need to be front row or end of a row as leg room has always been a problem. The guy i go to the games with is 6ft 7" and if we are sat mid row he has to go up in stages, it is really funny just not for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owls_fan_since_1983 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Usually sit on the south stand, sat somewhere else in the south stand was still a good view apart from the snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ANDY Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 The food on the south stand is loads better than on the North Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heeleyowl Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Swapped my ST seat in the north for middle of the kop - nice enough view between the pillars and def right choice to avoid the blizzard compared to poor souls in the front of the south brought back lots of good memories from years ago but the band is bloody annoying closer up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pride_of_the_road Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Sat on back row of the kop last night. Brought back good memories from the early 90s. Roland Nillson hitting our post with a back pass in semi final. Claiming a penalty for gordon watson against dirty leeds The list is endless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semedo's ferret Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Swapped from kop to South. Good to get a proper perspective on the game for a change. About 10 yards from Halfway line so great view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(or vice versa) Yes and I was with another person who did and also someone who sometimes goes on North and sometimes goes on Kop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
