Look, people have different ways of celebrating. Let it be.

I would 100% give be give the Stoke gremlins some jip after that. They'd been giving it stacks after seemingly getting a draw, so what if some want to give it back.

I'm in the FZ and after hugging those around me, I was giving them the rods. Not that any if them could see me. Who cares.

I'm in there too and did exactly the same but not until after I'd celebrated.

Yeah, sure, people have different ways of celebrating.

Just saying though, the City fans standing adjacent to the Stoke fans, giving all the V's, would STILL be standing adjacent to the Stoke fans, after the goal.

It's not like they had just 10 seconds to get their wanker signs in is it.

Commonsense, if you are that way inclined, I would think, would be to celebrate the goal, enjoy the emotion on all the Sky Blue faces, player and fan alike and then turn to the opposition fans to give them some abuse.

People can do what they want, but I do find it very odd behaviour myself.

I have only ever celebrated a goal, by sharing the emotion with the people around me and acknowledging the players celebrations.

And as I sidenote, any time the opposition score against us, I never, ever look toward the opposition's fans. I never want to see them celebrating and anyway, following a goal against us, I have always been so much more interested in our players' reactions and the reaction from our own dugout.

I think the past few seasons have taught us it's not over until the fat lady sings, though appreciate the dilemma these days with the daft road closures. Missing Cyril's winner in the 4-3 vs Spurs did it for me, though I did take my grandad to that one.

At the 11th hour I couldn’t make this one - the boy was ill. I had mixed feelings watching him ‘haji wright knee slide’ across the living room floor when the winner went in.

Since he’s retired I agree.

I'm in block 11 and it felt great giving them shit back to be honest specially after setting off flares at 2-1 ffs

They pissed me off singing all gone quiet over there after being silent all game it was a good feeling telling them to fuck off home. Specially the orcs who were more interested in our fans than the game for most of it.

They had people leaving at half time as well was funny

Jamie Allen's reaction running off on his own was great, i hope he gets the chance to stay for another season at least. Another good character that knows the club and been part of the progression.

Yeah, couldn't agree more. It's mad. If you are going to give any v signs and wanker gestures, why not at least do it after celebrating?

Those giving the abuse there are missing the joy on the players faces as they celebrate and also the reaction of all their fellow Sky Blue supporters around them, as they celebrate too

I really don't get it.

I remember going to see us away at West Ham one time and so many West Ham fans were just facing us on sideways the entire game and never once were looking towards to pitch. It was so odd.

I did notice that. Seemed to lose his mind and just pelt it towards Singer's Corner all on his lonesome.

Saddest thing in that clip is the grown men not celebrating with each or other city fans as they are too busy giving V’s to the Stoke fans.

It's not sad, it's pure gold, a 97th minute winner after the Stoke fans giving it stacks to the Coventry fans, it's raw emotion!

Unbelievable finish for a centre back and pandemonium in the stands. Similar to Fadz Vs Forest first season back at CBS.
Poetic as you say for us to score in what was once Robins time.

Penny for the thoughts of those who left in a huff at 2-2.

Straight away I thought it reminded me of a goal by Fadz, but couldn't remember who it was against... I jumped up so quickly from my seat to celebrate the winner that I actually felt dizzy. Must be getting old

It’s a shame you missed out on this experience.
Personally, I’m so tight with money. I always want my full value for my season ticket, so I’ve never left early.

Ahh, I always used to go the other way.

Wanting full value for my season ticket, I would always get to the CBS for 2pm every game.

Be in my seat by 3 mins past.

Yeah it really is. Love a last minute winner.

I never would leave early perviously but combination of the grid lock of car park C and having young kids at home has changed priorities a bit.

I just thought the scoreboard was always faulty and could never understand why the fans seemed content when I walked in.

I don’t like these videos coz I only really care about the football. However 2 years ago when we beat them at their place with Hamer scoring a great goal, they had a very young lad (maybe 11?) do a really good job. He’d flown back from holiday for the game. He was very confident & level headed.

A hell of a lot better than I was at his age when I was seeing what tasted better, bogeys or toe-nails!
