PHOTOS: Away Fans in the Stands – 6th November 2021

We start our look at away fans from the week’s games with those at Premier League fixtures, check them out below…

ASTON VILLA fans at Southampton

WOLVES fans at Crystal Palace

NEWCASTLE UNITED fans at Brighton

 

MAN CITY fans at Man Utd

NORWICH CITY fans at Brentford

BURNLEY fans at Chelsea

The beckoning floodlights
still work their magic,
late October’s comforting chill,
scarf snug round the neck.
Blood pulses through arteries,
moving as it should. Heart lifts
with every step towards the stadium.

An old pal texts me from
another game up north.
The name rings a bell.
He’s at a club where my job
was to phone over a few pars
for the Saturday Pink
from a kiosk outside the ground.

Games that I didn’t give a toss about,
dictated to a bored copy taker,
wishing I was somewhere else,
roaring my own team on to promotion.
But then, I remember Larkin’s sigh
it wasn’t the place’s fault I didn’t care.
A goalless draw can happen anywhere.
